Lauren Booth, employee of Iranian Press TV awarded diplomatic status by Hamas, wishes to educate former UK prime minister on true Islam.

The sister-in-law of former British prime minister Tony Blair has reportedly converted to Islam after “a holy experience” while on a visit to Iran.
Anti-Israel activist and journalist Lauren Booth said she took the decision after visiting the Fatima al-Masumeh Shrine in Qom, the second most holy city in Shi'ite Iran after Mashhad, leading her to convert immediately on returning to the UK.

“It was a Tuesday evening and I sat down and felt this shot of spiritual morphine, just absolute bliss and joy,” she told The Mail on Sunday newspaper.
The 43-year-old activist, a presenter for the Iranian news channel Press TV who was given a Palestinian diplomatic status by Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in 2008, said she now covers her head with a hijab when she leaves the house and prays five times daily. She also refused to rule out wearing a burka.
“Now I don’t eat pork and I read the Koran every day, I’m on page 60,” she claimed.
Booth also said she visits her local mosque when she can and has given up drinking.
“I also haven’t had a drink in 45 days, the longest period in 25 years. The strange thing is that since I decided to convert I haven’t wanted to touch alcohol, and I was someone who craved a glass of wine or two at the end of a day,” Booth told the Mail.
Booth also said that she had always been “sympathetic” to Islam.
“I was always impressed with the strength and comfort it gave,” she said.
The activist said she hoped her conversion would have an impact on Blair helping him to change his presumptions about Islam.
On a visit to Gaza in 2008, Booth compared Gaza to a “concentration camp” and a “humanitarian crisis on the scale of Darfur.”
Speaking on Press TV after her visit, Booth dismissed descriptions of Gaza as a prison.
“I want to say thank you for using the word concentration camp because the word prison has been applied in the last few years and that’s a lie. In a prison you get three meals a day, a nourishing diet, visits from outsiders and some hobbies and rehabilitation and a date for your release,” she said.
A few days before the interview, the Agence France Presse agency released a picture of Booth shopping in a well stocked grocery store in Gaza.
In August, Britain’s media regulator ruled a Press TV program on the Gaza flotilla incident presented by Booth breached broadcasting code rules on impartiality.
According to the independent regulator and competition authority for the UK communications industries, known as Ofcom, the program began with a pro-Palestinian song and anti-Israel images, featured an array of recorded and live interviews with similar views and included descriptions of the incident such as “barbaric” and “massacre.”
Presenting a program titled "Remember Palestine" on the Iranian channel Booth said: “Israeli commandos committed a massacre of innocent civilians sailing aid ships to the besieged Gaza Strip...This was obviously a barbarous attack on civilians... As Turkey buries its murdered citizens... the brave men and women on the ships in one move have shifted world opinion against Israeli apartheid.”
Ofcom ruled that the program was one-sided and failed to offer alternative views.
In 2003, British journalist Yvonne Ridley converted to Islam following her kidnap at the hands of the Taliban in Afghanistan in 2001.
Also an anti-Israel activist and Press TV presenter, the 51-year-old Respect party member declared the party “Zionist- free” in 2006 and described Israel as “that disgusting little watchdog of America that is festering in the Middle East.”
“If there was any Zionists in the Respect Party they would be hunted down and kicked out. We have no time for Zionists,” Ridley said.
In 2008, Press TV was accused of Holocaust denial after it published an article on its website claiming the massacre of Jewish people during the Holocaust was “scientifically impossible."

I am waiting for him as well to convert.. He brought to the UK Britianstan. He sat on his hands while the Muslims horde over into England.

That entire family is so sick that it makes my stomach spin. This sick family has so much Christian blood on their hands that it does not surprise me if news comes out that they already have been muslims all along.

Tell that to little girls being held down screaming and bleeding while their sensitive parts are chopped off with a rusty piece of metal.

What an animal. That woman and her whole family should burn in hell.

anyone know when they will cut her clitoris off?

This is news! Muslims are also inviting infidels into mosques to see how they worship. Now I ask you, Isn't this against Islam's religion? Do not befriend or associate with non-believers. Lay wait for them ambush them. They are willing to sacrifice their sacred oath to Allah, to deceive infidels into believing they are for peace! Astounding! This is how they are brainwashing Gullible Americans! Wait till the women get a load of Sharia Law.
-
Any woman who would convert to islam is certifiably insane.

I would say so. Islam hates women.

Shouldn't she have read the whole Koran before deciding whether or not to convert? It's not that long of a book to read.

If Princess Diana hadn't been taken out & had managed to convert to Islam & married Egyptian Muslim Dodi el Fayed, now that would really have rocked Blighty & the Establishment. She jus' had to die!

:::D She can't be that smart, maybe she doesn't know how to read that well so she can only try to sound out one word at a time.

That Lauren Booth is ugly! I certainly hope she wears a burka.
-
She wasn't ugly until she took on the Ishmaelite cause & became Islamified.
Notice her crucifix

Booth confirms Chaim's Principle "One will become physically ugly in proportion with the ugliness of one's ideology". This applies more to Jewish partzufim more than Gentiles.

But she was never attractive.

Once she became an overt Arab-luvva, her looks definitely deteriorated, as she started to look like one of them!

As GI Richard Gere said in the film "Yanks" when his friend said that "English girls smell", he replied "I don't care: I love it!". Lauren may not've been too bad....once: There's no accounting for taste!

You have terribly low standards.

Ms. Booth should be forced to cut her own clit off with an Xacto blade.

An 'Xacto' blade: is that what's called in Blighty a "Stanley Knife" aka "a 911 stewardess-slicing box-cutter"? Ooooh the pain! Oooh the verminously unclean, unfeeling, brutishly cruel clitoridectophilic Muslim trash!

Look at how asymmetrical her face is.

Sounds like a well thought out change of life plan! :::D :::D :::D
When the 'rush' and 'novelty' of this radical change in life has worn off... will she eagerly line up to be stoned to death as a proper murtadd?
She also refused to rule out wearing a burka.
You go girl! :::D :::D :::D

Clueless whore. Absolutely clueless about her own existence and now her unconcious cowardness made her a muslim. She's a waste of existence.
-
I wonder what catastrophe in this woman's life caused her to go off the deep end and become a muslim. These extreme leftists who become muslims are such a contradiction supporting a religion that is the opposite of everything liberal.
-
One can get strange ideological bedfellows. Nationalism is the opposite of Socialism. Yet Hitler was able to unite them in to one evil ideology: National Socialism = Nazionale Sozialist = NAZI!
Uniting the opposites of Liberalism with Islam is the ma'aseh Soton, & only spells trouble for the Jew!
When Hashem's time comes to expel the Jews from the UK, and it will come, whores like Redgrave and Booth will be arm in arm to lead the UK's 5 million Muslims in the torching of the United Synagogues, with all the staggeringly wealthy, complacent & self-satisfied British Jews locked inside: "You will perish among the nations" (Devarim 28)!

But is she now shiite or suni ? I would suppose the former because she is on the ayatollahs' payrolls.

DBN that was an excellent analysis!
