Human Rights Day Is Stoning In Iran

Ironic that today is Universal Human Rights Day

News out of Iran is that another women by stoning it will slay

Death is death no matter what the method or the means

But burying a victim up to shoulders and then hurling rocks makes you want to scream

Iran leads the world per capita in executions by a state

The number increasing not abating

With the case of the Times reporter as a shining example of the mockery of its trials

Its jurisprudence system to human rights definitely in the camp of hostile

Civilized nations the infliction of death by great pain no longer condone

Little doubt of the pain when a poor victim iis being stoned

Civilized nations do not execute those under the age of 18

Iran represents a theocracy whose lust for violence almost impossible to wean

If there is a silver lining on this barbaric Iranian judgment

It is the charge was murder not a refusal to convert to Islam this woman was supposed to consent
