According to posts, this group who have been identified as jundallah, is calling itself, "Iranian People Resistance Movement" and says it's a member of the joint tribal resistance, also consisting of Lor, Bakhtiari and Qashqai tribes. 2 weeks ago, these tribal groups fought with IRGC in Isfahan area.

Where in the hell is the UN and the other worthless human rights groups? Why are they not all over CNN saying this man's sentence was carried out too quickly, he did not get a fair trial, etc. Liberals suck with their hypocrisy.

Hope they didn't taunt him before they hung him or the Old York Times will be writing a scathing editorial.

Why? You do know that AL QAEDA is behind the Sunni group responsible, right? The enemy of my enemy is not always my friend.

How horrible! (no sarcasm there).

Of course, Amnesty International and our own fuzzy Leftists must be up in arms over this travesty.

(now THAT'S sarcasm.)

No, to be honest, I DIDN'T know that.

Evidence, please?

No, the enemy of my enemy is not my friend, but 'red-on-red' is always helpful in any war.

They probably grabbed some poor shluck off the street and hung him to make a statement.

Well, for starters, it says so right in the article posted above, wit,

A Sunni militant group which some believe is linked to al Qaeda claimed responsibility. Jundallah, or God's Brigade, has also been blamed for past attacks on Iranian troops.

You can also read its Wikipedia article for more basic background. It is an Al Qaeda affiliate based in Waziristan, Pakistan, the main Al Qaeda and Taliban stronghold. Supporting Jundallah seems like a stupid, short-sighted move for US policy makers.

Fair enough.

Uh, whatever you say. What evidence do you have (BESIDES CNN quoting IRNA quoting the perp) that "US policy makers" are behind this???

Look, I have none, and if I did have some, I wouldn't post it on this site. I'm not suggesting that the US is backing Al Qaeda, I'm saying it's stupid for posters on this site to be rooting for the same people who are flying planes into your buildings.

Wow.

They investigated the case, found the culprit, gave him a trial, and then executed him all in less than a week.

He probably got off easy on torture by confessing quickly to the crime.

Now we are amid total silence from all the do gooders in the world that daily condemn the United States.

And didn't they all bitch and winge about Saddam's "rushed" execution, let alone his "humiliation" when they first caught the SOB. Liberal BS in the form of multiculturalism, relativism and post-modernism are the same thing - self serving hypocrisy.
