Arrested Iran Prisoners To Face Death Sentence [Mass Public Executions Friday]
Iranian Students for Democracy ^ | June 26, 2003 SGT | staff report

Posted on 06/26/2003 7:14:55 AM PDT by ewing

Hundereds of those arrested in the last [Iranian] riots will be brought to speedy trials in order for the public to witness the decision of Islamic 'justice' on their cases.

Sources within the regieme are confirming the decision made in an extradordinary meeting of the National Security Council to issue and execute death penalties against many of them for 'Spying for the United States,' 'Attempts Against National Security' and 'Armed Action Intending to Overthrow the Islamic State.'

The move intends to go on by a series of public executions and to spread information on the cases of other protestors who are executed within the regieme's penitenciaries.

The Islamic Regieme hopes to increase its policy of Fear and Terror at the approach of the July 9th Student Uprising and National Labor Strike and by this way avoid mass participation in the rallies on that day.

Tens of those arrested have been placed under duress and torture in order to sign confessions on their links to the 'US Secret Services.'

These prisoners are under the special guard of the officers of the Intelligence Directorcrat of Pasdaran which is responding directly to the offices of the regieme's Supreme Leader.

The way the UN works, Iran will be in charge of charge of the Human Rights Committee in a couple of months.....

Looks like Iran is sealing its' own fate as the next spoke in the axis that's going to have to pay the ultimate price.....

I couldnt make out the last sentence of the article, sometimes I cant figure out what they are trying to say in the translation..

WTF kind of lame excuse is that? It doesn't make sense to YOU, so you excerpt one sentence out of a horror story and waste everyone's time by making them track it down?

I had no problem making sense of it. The families of those about to be executed are being pressured to disavow them:

It's to note that families of many of the arrested, such as the Scholars of Shiraz, have been pressured to cut any contact with their relatives contacts and ask to doesn't been called anymore for their sake.

And I could have made sense of it RIGHT HERE without having to go click repeatedly on a link that went nowhere for half an hour for *one sentence* you didn't like.

The solution is to smuggle in weapons that are identical to current Iranian police and military issue, so that the freedom fighters will have a fighting chance, and their weapons will be assumed to have been "liberated" in street fighting.

The problem is that our limp-wristed DoS has castrated the CIA, so this covert action will probably not happen, and the freedom fighters will be slaughtered.

I hoping Rummy and his group will grab this bull by the horns and do what's necessary, which is exactly what you spelled out.

I pray you are right about the loyalty of the Iranian uniformed military.

Time will tell and I pray as well that the quotes we have seen from their leadership are accurate when they said they would not take part in suppression.

You apparently discount the fact that Romanians are civilized. When their time is up, I suspect these oppressors are going to fare worse than Ceaucescu.

It's going to be interesting what the "Arab Street" thinks of mullahs "attached to trees", along with a large number of Iranians renouncing Islam altogether

I'm sure many are hoping these executions will trigger the anti-Islamic revolution in Iran.

First off, it isn't up to you to determine the meaning of an article you didn't write.

Second of all--BS!! You excerpt nearly every article you post for no damned reason at all except that you FEEL like it.

Apology not accepted.

I don't think for one moment the freedom fighters "lost heart" or "grew tired."

They realized their tactics would not work. They are regrouping, planning, and arming up, is my guess and hope.

I think your take is dead wrong. What we are seeing in Iran is nothing less than the beginning of the Islamic Reformation.

The vast majority of Iranians under 30 HATE Islam now, in their hearts they are blaming Islam for the misery infilcted on their society for 24 years.

They don't want a "division of mosque and state", they want the mullahs CRUSHED.

Thanks, Grampa, but after much completely unnecessary effort I was finally able to get "the rest of the story" for myself a while back.

No thanks to the original poster, who decided all on his own that ONE SENTENCE was worth making people hit a link.

Thanks for the link, FD. Yep, it looks like there might be a "High Noon" showdown between the mullahs and the middle-class. And still not much coverage from the papers

If the papers and the US "peace movement" choose to ignore mass executions of student protestors, there will be no redemption for them

The vast majority of Iranians under 30 HATE Islam now, in their hearts they are blaming Islam for the misery infilcted on their society for 24 years.

What made Ayn Rand (author of "Atlas Shrugged") such a hater of Socialism, was growing up in Russia just after the Russian Revolution, and seeing what happened to her formerly-middle-class family.

The mullahs have made the old middle-class poor. There is no surer way to violent revolution. The middle class must realize that if they allow the mullahs to retain any foothold in Iran, no matter how slight, there will be endless trouble from them, as they try to regain power. There is the possibility that the revolution, when it finally comes, will make the French Revolution look like a day at the beach. The longer it is suppressed, the bigger the final explosion will be

Agree, and about 70 % of the Iranian population is less than 30, so this will make a nice majority.

They don't want a "division of mosque and state", they want the mullahs CRUSHED.

I anticipate that they want both.
