Iran’s judiciary said on Thursday it has executed Sasan Azadvar, a 21-year-old karate athlete arrested during the January protests.
The judiciary accused him of “effective cooperation with the enemy by damaging police vehicles, inciting people to war and killing each other with the intent of disrupting national security, and encouraging others to take part in unrest and riots."

Iran was killing protesters before the US invaded. The US being shitty aggressors doesn't make the Iranian government the good guys.

It’s tough to get news out of Iran…but I’m dubious we should be getting it from a Saudi.
