"61 Executions Since Iranian Elections" More than 60 Iranians have been executed since the recent presidential elections on June 14th, opposition and human rights activists stated. Activists condemned the elections themselves as a "sham", given that the Iranian "Supreme Leader" Ayatolla Khameini hand-picked the list of eligible candidates. America is shying away from ordering Iran to stop producing plutonium as this has a cataclysmic effect on the entire region and Europe http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/169749#.UeMD89jD_cs Iran may develop and test a ballistic missile capable of striking the United States as early as 2015, according to a U.S. Department of Defense report released this week that the Daily Mail describes as “a sobering assessment of the nuclear threat the United States faces.” The Pentagon’s 2013 Ballistic and Cruise Missile Threat Assessment describes efforts by China, Iran, and North Korea to develop and share advanced ballistic technology, assessing among other things that North Korea “has exported missiles and missile technology to other countries, including Iran and Pakistan.” Tehran and Pyongyang have extensive military-to-military ties, and there is extensive evidence – including the physical presence of Iranian officials at North Korean tests – that the two are cooperating on work related to nuclear weapons. The new Pentagon report also assesses that “Iran has ambitious ballistic missile and space launch development programs and continues to attempt to increase the range, lethality, and accuracy of its ballistic missile force.” Earlier this month Reuters published an expose outlining how Iran is exploiting loopholes in the existing sanctions regime in order to import ore from Germany and France that could be used for making armor and missiles.
First of all, I think these public hangings are abhorrent. This is the kind of thing they did during the middle ages. Secondly, you should make proper use of either quotation marks or the quote-box feature.
No political executions ? Only 42 in the US that year. Only 42 in 2012. Only 17 so far this year Only 1337 since 1976.
now run the ratios (population to occurance) Kind of like, the concept of realizing there are more christians in iran, than in israel. Can anyone show how these people were deamed 'political'? I mean, i know that here in america we kill what are considered 'bad guys', even with drones, no trial and i bet primarily based on 'false witness' testimony. Could any of the testimony, be represented for any of the deceased 60? i know, i would have had judged OJ simpson to be hanged (or perhaps have his throat slit, in front of everyone (youtube it)), to show how equal rights, exist even unto an exwife. heck, put a glass rod up the winkie, break it, for any convicted of molesting a child (pedophile), just once, on the news, and I bet the problem is reduced, at least within the preaching industry. i kind of like public support, awareness, and punishment, to be norm. As then each know what to expect! .
Even the pro islamists here will not immigrate to Iran .. Anyone in the free west world does that ? think not.. It's easy to sit by the computer some where in Europe and freely attack USA , UK etc.. try to imagine those poor people in Iran which their computer is under surveillance... Iran is the leader of the DARK Muslim way of life, on the way why not hang those who were found kissing in public or those who drank beer ... Heaven forbid - gays..
Nothing political here. Besides, neoZionist warmongers can't turn our attention to Iran whilst Egypt and Syria are on fire. What a waste of propaganda space !
So Iran is the Texas of Asia ? Not sure how state ordered murders connect to ballistic missiles and so far i have not seen any "cataclysmic effect" in Europe .
I would disagree.. It's easier to understand a closed execution, viewed by maby a small handful such as independent observers to ensure it is humane, and loved ones of the victim(s) etc/ But public hangings.. That's just messed-up. You are getting your own people, in a crowded place, to cheer and clap over the killing of people.. Hooray for violence! That is bad. People can be influenced that, or have their viewpoints reinforced that, killing is a good thing, even if the person killed deserves it.. So if they have a quarrel with someoene, I imagine they could be more likely to murder or attack their adversary, with such a mindset. That's why I don't like the death penalty. Even if they deserve it.. Because violence I think breeds further violence. World leaders need to understand they are responsible, at least in part, for violence in their own societies. Like Obama.. He's a role model for children. He's the president after all. So what message does it send when he gets up on the podium and talks about how he has to bomb this guy or that guy.. Yes kids! Violence solves all your problems!
Once again, China, Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and the USA were the five biggest executioners in the world.http://amnesty.org/en/death-penalty/death-sentences-and-executions-in-2012. Capital punishment is a practice both Iran and the US embrace and these two nations stand beside each other as among the five nations in the world who rank as the biggest executioners worldwide.
My interpration of Bendor's transparent and inappropriate opening post reads; Iran has a policy of capital punishment so everybody should attack it and cause widespread death and destruction for the Zionist cause.
The theocratic regime in Iran is appalling; that much is not open to question. I feel desperately sorry for the bulk of the Iranian people, many of whom I knew, worked with and counted among my friends during the 1970s. More delightful, friendly and optimistic people you couldn't meet. Most of them were emigrants from the oppressive regime of the CIA-installed Shah whom they hated with a vengeance. His deposition during the Islamic Revolution led directly to the self-imposed issues America now has with Iran. Don't condemn Iran for the problems caused by direct US and British action in 1953. Condemn those who, whilst trumpeting the glories of democracy, decided that removing a democratically elected government in the interests of the greed for someone else's (Iran's), oil, was a good idea. ALL of America's problems with Iran stem directly from the idiocy of 1953. Blame America.
Palestinian broken record moanings.. The Zionist beautiful movement will live forever .. many many many Ramadans ... countless .. byeee
When are you going to quit calling anyone you disagree with a Palestinian? How about we start calling your posts 'Jewish whining'? Would that be ok? The Zionist 'movement' stinks like a bowel movement after a bad curry...
Curse them all you want. FRUSTRATED Muslim. The Palesinians national Nazi movement - that stinks !!!!!
really? that many "political" executions in the US? I wouldn't be surprised if you got those idiotic figures from RT or PressTV, but you really have to post a source for such outrageous claims if for no other reason than to prove you aren't simply pulling numbers out of the proverbial fundament.
I defer to your obviously more extensive knowledge of bad curry crap odors, but which Zionist "movement" are you referring to? Not all zionists are the same, but for some reason many people with very strong anti-zionist opinions, can't or won't differentiate. Its like judging all muslims by the antics and rantings of AQ or IJ. So who are these dastardly odiferous zionists of which you speak?
Predominantly the fanatical settlers, but also anyone who actively supports and encourages their illegal activities. The Netanyahu-led Knesset comes to mind.
Yep, drunken little sh*ts exactly like that who are probably encouraged by their equally odious parents.
Okay, thanks for your definition. I presume you don't actually mean all the members of the knesset, just the minority that supports the coalition?
don't have many drunken little shats that roaming around your city? Don't think it much matters what ethnicity, nationality, religion, political persuasion or economic strata when it comes to the wise words and actions of drunken teenagers. OTOH, many of the Israeli settlers are orthodox jews just like all other orthodox religious groups are bigotted, abrasive with non-believers, and pretty damn ignorant. I believe that they learned such attitudes not just from their parents and their religious teachers, but by the bigotry, abrasiveness and ignorance they (orthodox religo nutbars) experience in many of their interactions with non-believers. a true vicious circle.
