The Envy of Our DoJ and Deep State - Iran, the Ultimate in Judicial Control
[Amnesty International] Responding to the execution of three tortured protesters — Majid Kazemi, Saleh Mirhashemi and Saeed Yaghoubi — following a grossly unfair trial that bore no resemblance to meaningful judicial proceedings, Diana Eltahawy, Amnesty International’s Deputy Director for the Middle East and North Africa, said:
"We are horrified by the chilling execution of these protesters this morning. They were sentenced to death less than two months after their arrest and executed just weeks after the Supreme Court rubber-stamped their unjust convictions and sentences without any regard for the lack of evidence and serious allegations of torture. The shocking speed at which these men were ushered to their deaths illustrates the Iranian authorities’ flagrant disregard for the rights to life and a fair trial."
"Evidence?" Who needs evidence.
"These executions are designed by the Iranian authorities to send a strong message to the world and the people of Iran that they will stop at nothing to crush and punish dissent. In the absence of a robust international response, the authorities will continue to revel, unabated, in their impunity with lethal consequences for people in Iran."
"Strong message?" J6 people, consider yourselves lucky. USAF veteran Ashli Babbitt, not so much.
