Looks like executions of approximately 100 innocent freedom loving people tomorrow..prayers up!

[Frank_Discussion]

OK, is there ANYTHING we can do about this, some legal standing upon which the US can act? Human-Rights abuse? Something?

If they do this, I hope all hell rains on them from those already resisting.

[twigs]

My guess is that they want this over before July 9. That apparently is the date four years ago of the last uprising and the government has been concerned that people will turn out en masse to celebrate it.

[Bringbackthedraft]

The mentality of the 8th century being brought to the front page. That should do it! They are declaring war against the population, expect the bloody revolution to begin. The isolated assassinations of mullahs will soon make news.

[FreeTheHostages]

Yes, prayers.

THis could, just could, be the "tipping point" that causes Iran to break out into full civil war....now, suppose the secularists..the majority of Iranians who like the US..announce a provisional government and appeal to the US to intervene and help stop them from being slaughtered, well, by George...w'eve got a few brigades, and lots of air support, nearby..

Your link doesn't work, and the reason for excerpting this important story at all completely escapes me.

Where are all these human rights activists when you need them. Oh I forgot - they are all at GITMO feeling sorry for the detainees!

[Lockbar]

Where is Jimmy Carter on this? Oh, I'm sorry. These protesters were not facists or commies. I guess he dosen't care. Never mind.

[MetalHeadConservative35]

sounds like something right outta the pages of the book 1984...if you ask me we need about 2 teams of spec-ops s.o.c.o.m to go in there and get there people out...they cant do this alone (the students)..

most of us have seen this before (tiannimen square anyone?) at least as far as the uprising goes at least..this new twist (sad as well) to the story with these executions..the only thing i can say is (to quote kurt russell from "tango and cash") this whole thing..F-cking sucks

[Rudder]

Is this publication owned by either the washington post or the la times?

[hellinahandcart]

Can you *please* check your links so we can see for ourselves how much or how little you arbitrarily decided to leave out?

[Ready4Freddy]

"...decision made in an extradordinary meeting of the National Security Council to issue and execute death penalties ..."

We'll give 'em a fair trial, then hang 'em, eh?

[TigerLikesRooster]

Go Free Iran!

[SevenDaysInMay]

Tien Amen squared.

The Persian Islamofascist families must retain control. What are a few examples? A few thousand? A few million? To challenge the ring leaders is to challenge Allah.

Iran is like France in area, population, and corruption. As a matter of fact, Iran is like what France is becoming. Will the French be required to speak Arabic or Farsi?

[TigerLikesRooster]

Everybody, listen to

Ey Iran, the National Anthem of Free Iran

[b4its2late]

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.....

[ampat]

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

[muawiyah]

It's so typical of greaseballs around the world to execute innocent people.

Certainly the Iranian ayatollahs cannot be totally ignorant of the contempt with which they are held.
