Iranian justice.


Do you believe that this man enjoyed any semblance of due process at the time his guilt was determined?

Does this execution suggest that the sharia, as implemented in Iran, is arbitrary and places important reliance on grisly spectacles?

Was his crime something like "criticizing the Prophet"? Was he a Baha'i? Did he not want to be a Muslim any longer?

How much of a chance do you want to take that Muslims in your country will gain enough power to institute sharia?
