I see why the Mullahs want to suppress foreign news reports. It does make verification difficult.

"The ISNA report also said: The six people who were hanged today were convicted of murder. The report added that execution of three others that was scheduled to take place today, was postponed. One of them, identified as "Hossein R." was a minor offender convicted of a murder at the age of 16."

Let me know when they start hanging mullahs, Revolutionary Guards, ayatollahs and other such scum. Hanging routine murders just doesn’t excite me any more.

Hey this is none of our business....We need to focus on those damn Hondurans who are trying to protect their Constitution, and punish them for it.

The Mudders in Iran are just doing to their opposition, what 0 wants to do to his.

I doubt that is who was really hung.

They can report whatever they want, but it is clear that they have stepped in it. This will not blow over. They may suppress it for a time, but the use of Hezbella and the brutality they delivered will eventually bite them.
