The most salient, and widely-repeated, part of this news story is the allegation that religious minorities will be required to wear colored badges, in a manner highly reminiscent of Nazi Germany: "Jews would be marked out with a yellow strip of cloth sewn in front of their clothes while Christians will be assigned the colour red." Amir Taheri is not naming his sources, and numerous on-the-record sources, including Maurice Motammed, Iran's only Jewish MP, have flatly denied it. See e.g. http://www.prospect.org/horsesmouth/2006/05/post_8.html (among many others).
