Khamenei thinks this will discourage protests, but he's just getting people angrier. I hope he has an escape jet fueled up because he'll need to leave the country quickly in the middle of the night.
Errrr, isn’t that the definition of execution? >

I think they mean it as in "Theyre just murdering people" vs "Punishment for crime" >

Which is again a definition of execution, no? Officially murdering someone over a conviction (whatever it may be)?
I get what they’re saying. If they wish to argue that these executions are against the law of the country in question, just say so. >

Per the definition of murder, if it's lawful it isn't murder. >

But since the Iranian government gave itself the right to carry out the executions that makes it lawful and therefore not murder. >

Until the law is repealed by this goverment or the (obviously needed) new one, capital punishment for "waging a war on God" is legal. It isn't like this is a new thing in this backwards country's culture. >

I'm not commenting on the culture. Simply on the fact that we either agree that all capital punishment is barbaric or none is. >

Where has this twit been?
It's a government ordered execution, so... >

I mean yeah? >

Way to call ‘em, Chief. >

So it’s an execution.
Great job UN rights chief, you are right on the edge of comprehending what executions are. >

Kinda the point of executing people. >

Uh, Reuters... 
Hate to break it to ya, but that's all executions.
"Do what we want you to or we kill you." >

Wow those UN guys are really bright and totally not useless at all 👍 >

Killing people to stay in power.
