Arab Activist Hanged

2006-09-05

Tehran, 5 Sept. (AKI) - Iranian authorities have hanged an ethnic Arab activist convicted of involvement in a series of bombings in 2005, a government spokesman in Iran's Khuzestan region said Tuesday. The activist, Hamid Hassanai, was hanged on Sunday, the spokesman said. Hassanai is the fourth ethnic Arab activist to be executed in the last six months. Another six ethnic Arabs are awaiting execution in Iran.

I'm torn, dammit. It is Iran, but the odds of a "Arab activist" being pure as the driven snow is pretty small

#4 I don't think it is necessary to take sides on every issue. Sometimes it is enough to just note it that it is happening. "A pox on both your houses" may be the proper response in this case.

#3 Let the turbans say "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." We can do better than that...

#2 Rhetorical question: Even if he was trying to blow up a Mad Mullah?

Does our end justify his means?

#1 Me as well Steve. I want Iran to be troubled within, but have no problem with a Arab Activist being killed for bombing.
