Iran publicly hangs January protesters in Isfahan's Alikhani Square, sparking outrage

The Islamic regime publicly hanged two protesters arrested during the January demonstrations in Alikhani Square in Isfahan on Tuesday morning, sparking renewed public outrage, according to the country’s judicial media and footage of the event circulating online among dissident circles.

The two protesters were named by Mizan news agency as Amirhossein Safari and Abolfazl Sepahi, who were alleged to have attacked police officers “with machetes and knives, tying them to road signs, pulling them on the ground, dousing them with gasoline, and setting them on fire” on January 8, the same day that four members of Iran’s security forces were allegedly killed by protesters in the square.

Human rights groups estimate that more than 30,000 people were killed by the Islamic regime during the December and January protests. Tehran, however, has claimed that foreign-backed rioters were responsible for the deaths of 3,117 people, including 427 members of the security forces.

There are numerous reports that the Islamic Republic frequently conditioned the return of victims' bodies for burial on bereaved families accepting the state's narrative.

Families were allegedly forced to sign statements claiming that rioters had caused the deaths or that the deceased had been members of the Basij paramilitary. Charged with waging war against God A total of 12 men were convicted for the alleged killings in the square, two of whom were executed on July 19 for their alleged role, despite the UN warning of serious misconduct during the judicial proceedings that led to their guilty verdict.

Safari and Sepathi were convicted under the charge of “moharebeh [waging war against God] by drawing weapons and creating fear and terror” and “corruption on earth for committing acts that severely disrupted public order and security in the country,” charges that have been used against numerous protesters.

It’s what the American left would do to us, if they could. Won’t dampen the media’s cheering for Iran.

“attacked [sic] “with machetes and knives, tying them to road signs, pulling them on the ground, dousing them with gasoline, and setting them on fire”

This is what the true Persians need to be doing to any IRGC member they can find ...

Yes, 100%.

The irony is the left would be the first go to.

I guess the ongoing supposed “talks” don’t address human rights in their country.

Good fodder for someone to create a meme with the CNN guy saying “It’s mostly peaceful” spliced into it from the BLM city burning behind him.

In the US a law passed against “waging war against God” would result in a culling of the undesirable population. Since the days of the Puritans that sort of thing has been tried. Problem is the Satanic agents like Talarico would pretend they are the ones to judge people. Disaster.

President Trump has forgotten that the US doesn’t negotiate with Terrorists. This is the epitome of a Terror Regime. He needs to finish the job.

It’s sad to say so, but anything that increases hatred and opposition to the mullahs is a plus

No.

WE need to learn how to deal with protesters who assault people and burn cities.
