Much of our people are fighting in the streets against this regime, we don’t need generalisations like that.
It was just a formality. There was no way they were letting them go. >

Honestly with Iran it doesn't surprise me anymore. This shit has gone on way too long and something has to be done about it >

Well they had a killer democracy until the CIA got involved... >

Too soon. >

Iran Judge: You have 15 minutes to argue whether we should hang you, stone you to death, or just shoot you. Begin. >

"Eat my ass, fascist."
In that situation, you're dead either way.  Better to go out with something nice your family can put on your tombstone. >

Barbarians >

The part of transitioning to green energy that I am looking forward to the most, is that entire corner of the world returning to a wasteland filled with theocratic barbarians, as opposed to whatever potemkin country they're running these days. >

Jimmy Carter's engagement with Ruhollah Khomeini 

In 2016, the BBC published a report which stated that the administration of United States President Jimmy Carter (1977–1981) had extensive contact with Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and his entourage in the prelude to the Iranian Revolution of 1979. The report was based on "newly declassified US diplomatic cables". According to the report, as mentioned by The Guardian, Khomeini "went to great lengths to ensure the Americans would not jeopardise his plans to return to Iran - and even personally wrote to US officials" and assured them not to worry about their interests in Iran, particularly oil.

Anyone watch Deep Space Nine? Iran reminds me of when Garrick is explaining Cardassian law to Bashir: the verdict is known before the trial begins and its always guilty.
Bashir: "In that case, why bother with a trial at all?"
Garrick: "Because the people demand it. They enjoy watching justice triumph over evil every time. They find it comforting." >

Iran is the new ISIS.  That's how barbaric the Iranian government has become. >

Meanwhile, you get 8 or 9 years if found guilty for beheading your wife or your daughter.
Cowards. >

If they are even charged for it .... >

kangaroo court >

How much money do you pay a father to "pardon" the man who killed his daughter? >

The daughter in question had been disowned by her family. She was married with a child and abandoned her family to be with a other man she met online and left the country. When she returned, her husband murdered her.
It was a really sick story, mostly because he cut her head off. But the family didn't want anything to do with the daughter, so they didn't press charges or ask for a more serious punishment. It's the job of the state to sentence him, but they shied away from a longer sentence because the kid (age 3) has no one to care for him if the father was in jail forever.  
Disgusting story no matter how you look at it though. >

So Iranian regime's brutatily proves universal. Even Shia against Shia. The ugly truth of a terrorist state.
