My comment: The US and other western leaders have eased sanctions on Iran, and are thrusting them into the world scene while ignoring the fact that they continue to have one of the worst human rights abuse records. This article points out that Amnesty International states that executions in Iran have risen dramatically in 2014 alone. The nuclear talks have all but failed. The executions in Iran are carried out in the most degrading and horrific manner. While sanctions have been lifted. Iran continues to hold Americans like Saeed Abidini. He was recently beaten and removed from the hospital he was in and taken back to prison. While they do these things to innocent people is beyond comprehension. The new president of Iran gained a new podium on a supposed ‘moderate’ platform. This is far from moderate. To kill thinking you are doing a service to God, is not biblical.

(Israel National News) The United States on Monday voiced renewed concerns about the large number of executions in Iran, the day after a political prisoner was hanged despite international concern, reported AFP.The prisoner, Gholamreza Khosravi Savadjani, was executed after being convicted of “waging war against God” by helping the opposition People’s Mujahedeen Organization of Iran PMOI, Iranian state media reported.The exiled Iranian opposition said he had been jailed just for being a member of the PMOI, and Amnesty International condemned his 2010 trial as unfair.”We continue to be concerned about the large number of Iranians executed following trials involving serious violations of due process,” State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said, according to AFP.
