This is not true. The report originated with an Arabic language website. The latest confirmed reports (as of March 2) indicate that he is alive and Iran is now saying they will not execute him.

This is from a Brazilian news source

Brazilian diplomacy intervines and Iranian authorities guarantee that Yousef Nadarkhani is alive

Maybe these Moose were testing the waters to see how the Christian West would react — and they are all wishing him bon voyage in heaven. Not the abject terror that the Moose expected out of the “infidel.”

Hope and pray the Brazilian article reflects accurate and up to date info, however, the date of that Brazilian article is 3/2 and could be older than the date of the sourced article of this post (3/3). Comments at the Brazilian article question the authority and veracity of the statement as well.

5.Ronnie James says: March 3, 2012 at 10:32 am .Apostasy Watch Last night a report was posted that Iranian Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani had been executed by Iran. The report was originally translated from an Arabic website. We have been unable to confirm this information through the US State Department or any western media. We will continue to monitor the situation. Please keep Nadarkhani and his family in your prayers

If anyone can locate the original Arabic or Persian source detailing otherwise, kindly post link. Thanks.
