We, in the US may not see being stoned as such a horrible thing, however in the Middle East, especially in Afganistan, Iran and other countries it is certain death.

So what makes for a crime punishable by death? well, most people believe that it is causing the death of another. But some societies are still stuck in the days of witch hunts.

Stoning to death is a cruel insane Islamic punishment given to people who are married but still voluntarily have sex outside marraige ( the cheater may not even always be guilty of the crime, since I doubt they have DNA evidence or any evidence of said crime other than one word against anothers). This punishment was ordered by the “merciful” Prophet, who ofcourse was the messenger of the “merciful” Allah.

Yes, this is the religion of peace. We see the peacefull solutions on CNN daily to the problems they may face.
So, more about execution by stoning…

Here is the stoning execution of four people, please be aware this is a very graphic and violent video clip of a bloody and barbariuc middle East Taliban style execution

In stoning to death, the victims’s hands are tied behind their backs and their bodies are put in a cloth sack. Then, this human “package” is buried in a hole, with only the victims heads showing above the ground. If its a woman, she is buried upto her shoulders. This is to give her an seemingly equal (but nonetheless impossible) chance to escape recognizing her lesser physical strength.
After the hapless individual has been secured in the hole, people start chanting “Allah hu Akbar” (meaning, God is great), and throw palm sized stones at the head of the victim from a certain distance (a circle is drawn).
The stones are thrown until the person dies or until he/she escapes out of the hole and crosses the circle. Escaping is impossible, given that the individual’s hands are tied behind their backs and they are buried in a hole upto their necks or shoulders (in the case of males and females respectively).
Naturally, the procedure is extremely barbaric and bloody.

You must wonder why the people are wrapped in a sack. Is that so that the individuals doing the stoning do not feel as bad. Does that remove the face and leave a blank for them to throw stones at. If the ladies faces are not covered, will they still celebrate?

So who here is commiting the crime? the criminal or the gang of executioners? hmm

Warning! This is an extremely sick and disgusting punishment, and thus watching this video can make you weak or possibly give you nausea and shock for several days. Please do not watch if you are weak-hearted.

Can we all get an Amen for peace, mercy and religious spirit, still going strong and bringing out all of humanities best.

The following is a video that was made to raise awareness about childeren getting hung. It is a mix of some real footage and some re-enactments of executions ( hangings ) in Iran

This is another Video that talks about the Iranian Executions. This is an interview on Iranian TV. Mortazavi who is wanted by the Canadian government for torturing and murdering the Canadian Reporter Z. Kazemi is discussing the recent executions in Iran. An unknown number of civilians have been executed in June 2007. Typically, they are 1st tortured by imported Lebanese Shia militias, then turned over to Iranian guards at various prison sites.

So what was this ladies crime? did she kill someone? kidnap? stab her mother? rob the minimart (I hear you get shot for that one)? show her face… or god forbid her leg in public?  nope… she did the what comes naturally to most humans… sexuality… in her case… she was married, so they say.

The woman who got the execution of being hung from the crane in public… well she cheated on the hubby.Maybe he was abusive, maybe he just plain sucked in bed, or maybe he was just not the person she ever, ever wanted to be with in her life… but none of that matters now does it?

I still do wonder what happens to a man for the same thing? do they chop off his nuts or what?

I know that many countries are a bit behind the times and have not yet come to realize that people do not always get along… nor do they “stay in love”.. we all wish that we would… but as always shit happens!

but now read the part below..

“Many brain washed Pasdar and Basij raped female prisoners. By law of Islamic Regime of Ayatollahs virgin girls if executed will be blessed into the heaven. They are raped, before execution.”

hmm, let me get this straight now… rape a virgin… and said virgin goes to heaven… or does the rapist? hell, not really sure on that one..

But one thing I do remember is the story a bit back about a lady stoned to death for the same thing and the global opposition to it… not that it helped her in the end… I think.  Now come on people… move into the modern ages!

and… some sick shit galleries of the cheating ladies hung by the neck… in public till death!

As far as sick shit and Executions go… Middle East may take the cake. Regimes may change, but the terror seems to remain within the population… these images are not that old, they are from 2002.

Execution by hanging from crane? guess they never heard of the English Gallows!

As always, its just so hard to imagine so many people standing by, but then terror has been instilled in them for centuries and many of us can not even imagine anything like that… nor can I imagine the inhumanity involved.

This kind of TRIAL became routine practice in Islamic Regime of Ayatollahs. Two minutes talk to the accused, then hang… people stood by to watch… no one said a word.
Six people were executed this day [End of September 2002] and two other women were slashed

The folowing is a very bad resolution image dated 1979. I mean how high up in the sky do you need to hang a person to make a public statement? I guess in thier minds, 100’s of feet using the giant crane… pretty sick shit! Public executions are effective I suppose in the eyes of the governments doing them… how better to instill fear into an entire country than to hang some poor soul 100 feet into the air off a crane… in public… public executions and at times public mass hangings? hell, I sure can not think of a better idea

here are some more pictures of Executions by hanging in Iran
