It was only a few weeks back when Mr. Henry Kissinger pointed to the basic flaw in the nuclear negotiations with Iranian regime in a senate hearing. The negotiations had drifted from denying Iran status of a nuclear state to one extending the breakout period for Ayatollahs to acquire nuclear weapons to one year. He pointed to the repercussions of such a deal in the region and beyond that would transfer our world from what we know it today to one where people have to live in fear of the ultimate weapon.

Unconfirmed reports suggest that Iran has secretly executed Kurdish political prisoner Saman Naseem, despite a global campaign to save his life. Naseem, was a member of the Party of Free Life of Kurdistan (PJAK), a Kurdish resistance organization in Iran, and arrested when he was still a minor. He was convicted of moharebe, or, “enmity with God” and sentenced to death. Although there has been no official announcement by the Iranian government, reports indicate that the regime informed Naseem’s family that he had been hanged on Friday, and ordered them not to hold a funeral. The execution serves as another example of the Iranian regime’s willingness to flout international law during its ongoing war against Kurds and other ethnic minorities in Iran.
