Early morning Bambi briefly read in L’Orient Le Jour the shocking story of two Iranian brothers of Kurdish origins (https://tinyurl.com/e6hx92tu). This evening she took the time to re-read the details of this awful story in Le Matin (https://tinyurl.com/yckfkdd8).
The tragedy reported above stems from Iran’s HARSH version of the Sharia law. The latter derives from the Koran and the Sunnah (words/actions of the Prophet Muhammad). It includes a set of individual as well as collective rights, duties, rules, and sanctions for Muslims. The latter are derived from tradition and jurisprudence (https://tinyurl.com/2dt5unc7).
Since we are in 2024, why is the Iranian regime still using a guillotine to physically punish its citizens, whether wrongfully or accurately convicted of theft? Instead of reforming its legal system, Iran is busy using other countries, including tiny Lebanon, as a battle ground to fight Israel, via its Islamist proxies. How can we trust it then to have nuclear weapons?
Of note, the barbaric story featured in this post followed another tragedy: Iran executed a German-American-Iranian dissident, Mr. Jamshid Sharmahd. Heartfelt condolences to his daughter Ms. Gazelle Sharmahd who, according to the Deutshe Welle, expressed her disappointment by both the American and German governments’ insufficient efforts to try to save her dad (https://tinyurl.com/muae82c7). May his memory be eternal.
