So the killings in Iran continue (see post dated October 27, 2012:
Iran Tribunal highlights a decade of atrocities). Last week, Mr Sattar Beheshti, was taken into custody accused of undermining national security. His crime consisted in engaging in a blog that criticised the government; his punishment it seems: torture and death. Yesterday his body was released to his family. Only one relation was allowed to attend his funeral.
When a government degenerates to the point of using such evil tactics, it deserves to be overthrown and Iran has been at that point for many years now. Of course, Israel would be more than willing to oblige. The irony is that Iran may be quite justified in seeking to achieve a nuclear status, particularly when Israel's capability creates an unfair balance of power in the region. Irony, because its real evil is its internal policy, which so oppressive that its people could hardly say "boo", let alone rise up in a Persian Spring. So, like Al Capone, who was finally arrested for tax evasion, despite his countless crimes, the Iranian government may also find that Karma always manages to find the back door.
