Iran executed 19-year-old national wrestling team member Saleh Mohammadi on Thursday, along with two other men, in the regime's first announced executions tied to January protests.

Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi and Saeed Davoudi were executed in Qom after being found guilty of killing two police officers during unrest in Nabut Square on January 8. They were convicted of the capital crime of waging war against God, known as moharebeh under Iran's Sharia law.

The regime made a stupid decision with terrible timing.

There are so many athletes in prison there. It’s very sad.

"19-year-old Iranian wrestler Saleh Mohammadi was just hanged by the Islamic regime. He wasn’t executed for wrestling. He was executed over accusations tied to anti-government protests. Iranian authorities claimed he was involved in the killing of security forces during unrest. But human rights groups say something very different: They say he was denied a fair trial and forced to confess under torture. He was 19 years old. A young athlete. And now he’s gone." - Terrence Williams

And yet, democrats applaud, promote and defend sharia. They do so by protecting its adherents. Do they even have the capacity to comprehend how hypocritical they are? Or are they drunk and stoned 24/7?

Pure EVIL. May God’s retribution fall upon these demented souls - and fast.

Waging war against Satan was his crime.

There is no Allah but Satan, and Muhammad was his murdering pedophile.

There is more to this story. This young man was denied the right to his own attorney. He was given a government-appointed attorney. These are known to be, basically, an extension of the prosecution team.

After the judge issued a death sentence, the attorney had 20 days to file an appeal. He filed it in five days, to expedite the appeal ruling by 15 days. The appeal was summarily denied - no surprise there.

He was executed right before Persian New Year.

Persians celebrate the first day of spring (today, March 20). This young man’s parents will never be able to celebrate Persian New Years.

The Islamic Republic is evil to the bone. And every “Islamic Center” you see in the US is an incubator for this loathsome belief system.

And every raghead in America is a Clear And Present Danger. Male or female. And every democRAT is an enabler; facilitator; traitor.

I always compare Islam with cancer. The analogy is analogous to the tee. Both start out quietly. Both grow faster than normal cells/people. The host has no clue of what danger lies ahead. When the tumor becomes big then the pain begins. But by thn it is too late.

Cancer is an excellent analogy. Cancerous cells replicate faster than healthy cells.

Moslems pass on their ideology (either by reproduction or proselytization) at a rate higher than other belief systems.

Here is a slightly more practical analogy: A virus.

Viruses replicate by infecting a cell and taking over its DNA replication system. After that, the infected cell creates more of the virus, and they keep spreading. This analogy is slightly better, because we can now introduce another factor: Stress (or vitamin deficiency).

These are factors that reduce your body’s natural ability to fight viruses. In this analogy, stress or vitamin deficiency are like liberalism. They are not the virus themselves, but they reduce your body’s ability to defend against the virus.

The cancer analogy fits because there is no cure once cancer spreads. It is called Stage-4 cancer. Survival is close to zero. Once Islam takes over a country, those countries have never been able to get rid of Islamic rule. Where as virus infections recovery rates are pretty high. I had smallpox infection at age 9, one of the deadliest viruses, and I survived. I have a long list of Islamic countries.

Evil is on the side of evil.
It’s really no surprise.
