Please try to refrain from one-liners and lawyer jokes.

What these men suffered is no joking matter.

Their deaths have deterred other lawyers from taking detainees' cases, they added.

Yea, that would probably do it.

Sounds to me like these attorneys were patriots for the people not the illegitimate government. Can we expect similar over here from out new administration? Firing Inspector Generals, Town Halls closed, News Media Shuttered? Legislation proposed against the people’s interest and pushed by extraordinary means?

It would appear the Iranians are on to something.

Just keep in one thing in mind.....keep that picture of the president of The United States bowing before the king of Saudi Arabia.....the keeper of the faith of the moon god of arabia.....allah. The president of The United States bowed before the man who is the protector of the faith of these pagan monsters.

Iran is ruled by a thugocracy of imams.

It is the perfect situation for the IMOM - International Man of Mystery

For the first time since 1979, I’ve begun to feel compassion for the Iranian people.

God help them.

The lawyers identified themselves as possible able to use the regimes own textual contradictions against the regime.

They exposed themselves as smart and brave. So, as far as the regime is concerned, they did the regime a favor by delivering their heads as possible popular leaders.

They should of did what Solidarity did, surround themselves with the workers.

There is a basic mechanics by regimes in controlling and suppressing opposition. Nothing new under the sun.

I’m sure these lawyers knew that they were taking a chance, but obvious they grossly miscalculated.
