Iran executions see 'unprecedented spike' - Amnesty
Source: BBC News
There has been an "unprecedented spike" in the number of executions in Iran, Amnesty International has warned.
The rights group said it believed 694 people were killed between 1 January and 15 July, almost three times the figure acknowledged by the authorities.
It said credible reports suggested Iran executed at least 743 people in 2014.
Amnesty said the surge was disturbing as the death sentences were invariably imposed by courts "completely lacking in independence and impartiality".

The majority of the executions were for drug offenses.
You know how every single unsavory fact about Saudi Arabia gets posted on DU in an attempt to shame Bush? Well, at least he didn't give the Saudis nukes. Time for a little payback, DUmmies. (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10141154623)

1. Why is This Story Coming out Now?
Good old BBC. I am wondering why this story comes out at this time. Is it an effort to demonize Iran and scuttle the nuclear agreement?
The UK Guardian is keeping track of how many Black peoople are being killed here by police too. Interesting.
Sorry you don't like it, DUmmy. Get ready for more news about your new best buddy, IRAN.

not that I give two @#$%s about Amnesty international and their little @#$! show, but pay close attention DUches. The people Iran is executing... They are EXACTLY like you. Ignorant fools saying to the end 'does the ayatollah know about this'?
Oh by the way Homonazis of DU, How much do you want to bet most of the people being killed by Iran are GAY?! That's your president, selling your people down the river, but its okay in this case. They're not 'his voting bloc' anyways.

When are the DUmbos going to realize that the Iran deal is almost exclusively designed to poke Benjamin Netanyahu in the eye ? Bibi made the mistake of crossing The One, and he is now feeling his vengeance.
And to be clear - Obama doesn't care at all about the destabilizing effect this deal will have. All that matters is revenge.

Iran, doing the killing so Americans don't have to....but their production levels are much to low.

Iran did say they had a cure for GRID (AIDS).
Not very inventive but very effective. The DUmmies would side with Iran over the Teahadists despite this.
