It is thought he was charged with waging war against God', which is punishable by death in Iran, following his arrest in the city of Fardis, near Tehran. Supporters say he has not been allowed legal advice and had no chance to defend himself before a verdict of death by hanging was delivered. He was allowed to see his family for just ten minutes yesterday to say goodbye, according to activists. The National Union for Democracy in Iran said: "He was denied access to a lawyer. Erfan's only crime was calling for freedom."

Thanks to the Israeli Mossad, who didn't give a darn about their sources and assets in Iran, 700 Iranians were easily rounded up for espionage by the experienced Iranian counterintelligence agencies for helping Israel. Six were executed within days of capture.

This is the opposite of Ukraine and their SBU who take care of assets captured by the Russians.

I hope these useful idiots who helped Israel thought their lives were worth it.

"Thanks for nothing, Israel!"

Iran seems like another hopeless situation with the Islamists deeply embedded to snuff out the will of the people :-(

The protestors don't have guns.

The Iranian military do.

Also, China is assisting the Islamic Government.
