I hope not!

This judge was famous for keeping young people in jail for disobeying Islamic rules!

I was suggesting that heavier weaponry be shipped to the students and those who supported the gunman, not the mullahs.

Iran's Intelligence Ministry later blamed the murders of the dissidents on "rogue agents" in the secret service.
Interesting group to blame! Wonder if there's anything behind it? Sounds like many Iranians would have had reason to want to pronounce sentence on this judge.

Good afternoon.
"That country is going to explode into civil war."

This should makes the Syrian Baathists very nervous. If we know that Iran is occupied with it's own problems, we can more readily deal with Syria.

He thought he was God. Now he is facing the real God and the ultimate judge. Based upon my knowledge of scripture I'd say this judge is a very unhappy camper. He has probably been put in a place where he is assured of warmth.

Iran's regime+Syrian Assad= Brothers in arms

There is a lot of organised crime in Iran - linked with the drug trade. If he had anything to do with such cases, they would have to be the prime suspects.

Understood!

Any theories on who is responsible? It's easy to jump to the Ganji connection.

Wouldn't say if i knew, but i don't. It could be
any one of millions..all the way down to a personal
grudge of one person...Now if Military commanders,
mid level hardlne clerics and smal groups of basiji
start turning up dead..if a factory and a warehouse,
here or there, belonging to Bazzari supporters of
Khamenei, catch fire and burn down...if some weapons
depots explode shortly after being looted...

[NickatNite2003]

..If grenades start getting tozsed into or underneath
SUVs full of "Morality Police', grouping of
Riot Polce, and chain and razor blade
weilding "supporters of Khamenei"...

[NickatNite2003]

Perhaps the Iranians have a "Zorro" of their own now...
