And they hanged a young gal the other day. What a despicable regime.
Well, I suppose we should liberate Iran along with the hundred or so other things we are being asked to do. What the hell, toss a few more of my tax dollars down another Middle Eastern rat hole.
Who is saying he died for freedom? How did this get out of the Iranian press? Who is going to hold the tortures accountable?
I don't get it. Where is the propaganda value in letting this get out through state run media?
What am I missing?
We will have to fight these shia koranimals one day. When it finally dawns on the dimbulbs, that make up about half of the American population, that iran has been conducting a one-sided war ever since the coup of 1979, one can only hope that the mullahs by this time don't have the bomb.
I don't care if they have the bomb or not. Now is the time to wipe the mullahs and mad mahmoud off of the planet.
I hope there is a special place in hell for the Islamofacists who are enslaving Iran!
I believe Iran Press News is out of France, not Iran.
