Samira was a child bride married at 15 and a victim of domestic violence. She had two young children, one a new-born baby, when she was arrested and had not seen her children in ten years. She saw them for the first and last time when they came to the prison to say goodbye.

At the time of writing, her execution has not been reported by domestic media or officials in Iran.

Rights group calls for Ali Khamenei and other leaders of the Islamic Republic to be held accountable for this crime.

I don't want to disturb the thread here about religion, islam, and the like, but the point here is that a young girl was forced into a marriage at the age of 15, then raped and beaten by her 'husband', and then hanged by an autocratic regime because she obviously found no other way out of the horror. The Iranian regime is in charge of that, the people responsible are to be held accountable, rather than any religion, ideology, or the like.

This is horrible and should be documented... but let's be realistic: nobody will be held accountable as long as Iran has Oil and Nukes... and by the time it runs out of those, the people responsible will likely be long dead.

All we can do is hope for Cold Fusion to become a reality, so all the Oil based dictatorships would collapse.

This is the point I was trying to get at; although very inelegantly. Thanks for this.

Islamic jihadism is a problem that the world needs to get in front of.

The problem is, there's a lot of wealth in the places that are true believers in Islamic jihadism and that wealth is being used nefariously to undermine liberal western democratic ideals. Watching people cheer for Osama bin Laden should be a real eye opener for the west but it might already be too late.
