The Stoning of Soraya M. is more than a movie about a wronged Iranian woman. The film's timing, writes Steven Emerson, can help a nation rally against its iron-fisted Islamic rulers.

Director Cyrus Nowrasteh's new release, The Stoning of Soraya M. written by Cyrus and his wife Elizabeth, is one of the most compelling, stirring, and riveting films I have ever seen. Inspired by French journalist Freidoune Sahebjam's international bestseller of the same name, this compelling story sheds light on Islamist mob rule and the horrific honor killings associated with countries that follow Sharia law.
Most importantly, the timing of the film's release - amid the largest popular Iranian uprising against the Islamo-fascist mullahs since they took over in 1979 - makes it one of the most relevant and important of our time. It, quite simply, serves as a brilliant exposition on the fanatics who control Iran and their willingness to kill their own people to maintain religious political power.
This film should be required viewing not only for every American - nay, every citizen of the world - but for every Obama administration official and member of Congress, if they want to understand what is truly going on Iran and the need to firmly, unequivocally, and unambiguously confront the Islamist thugs, whether they be in Tehran, Gaza, or Lebanon.
