Iran: Poet, Activist Hanged

From Iran comes yet more proof of that tolerant regime - you know, the one that Kerry et al believe as they give false assurances on faux treaties designed to make our world safer.

Iran Hangs Well-Loved Human Rights Activist, Poet

Shabaani wrote, “I have tried to defend the legitimate right(s) that every people in this world should have ... full civil rights.” 

February 17, 2014 

Iran has executed human rights activist Hashem Shaabani, a 32- year-old Arab-Iranian, for “waging war on God.”

Other charges included sowing corruption on earth, propaganda against the Islamic Republic and acting against national security, according to a 2012 sentence handed down by the Ahvaz Islamic Revolutionary Court.

A well-known and loved poet in Iran, Shabaani was originally arrested in 2011 and “confessed” the crime of terrorism on Iranian state-controlled Press TV after being subjected to months of torture and interrogation.

However, in a letter that was published by Ahwaz News Agency in 2013, Shaabani said he had “never participated in any armed activity, whatever the motives.”

He said, “I started my journey wielding my pen against the tyranny that is trying to enslave and imprison minds and thoughts …”
