And how many of us in the West
would not then be dead?

life is fragile
and this kind of killing is not new.
I try to avoid those horror stories
so I can stay sane.
justice? based on what?

human...hopeless.

The Islamic penal code.

The Iranian Supreme Court returned a decision based on the rule of law that is accepted by the majority of the Iranian populace, so did they return the correct decision?

According to Iranian law the answer is probably yes and if you took a poll in downtown Tehran you'd probably get the same reply. It's only when viewed with western cultural bias the answer becomes a definite no but it's their country and their laws and as long as they're happy to accept and be governed by the laws in place and pay the consequences of breaking them then who are we to question them.

Do you mean if we accepted the Islamic Penal code as law or if Iran were in a position to judge and sentence us by it?

So failing to submit
one is given a sinner . . .
liable to death.


Well that certainly
makes things easier . . .

It is not something "easier" in thinking.
it happens now, in past and will do in  future
It happens in Iran, and in Afghanistan, and in North Korea, and in China, and in USA and in Africa, and in Australia and every where in earth.And
It happens  in other animals too.
