All the Islamic Republic can do is continue to try to terrorize its population into submission, as that is all that the Qur’an prescribes: “Make ready for them all that you can of force and of warhorses, so that by them you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy…” (Qur’an 8:60)
“Iran poised to execute pregnant woman for burning picture of founder Ayatollah Khomeini,” by Ciaran McGrath, Express, January 28, 2023 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Iran is poised to execute a pregnant woman for burning a portrait of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Islamic Republic’s founder, reports emerging from inside the country have suggested. Shahla Abdi, an ethnic Kurd in her 20s, from the northwestern province of West Azerbaijan, was arrested by the morality police in Urmia in mid-October at the height of nationwide protests triggered by the September death in custody of Mahsa Amini….
A woman inmate at Urmia Central Prison told IranWire Ms Abdi had been held there for about a month, with other prisoners saying she was transferred to Tabriz Prison about three weeks ago. However, there are also claims she has been taken to the detention centre of the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence.
The woman explained: “When I saw this woman, she looked very young but weak and abused, and I realised that she was four months’ pregnant.”
Another inmate believed Ms Abdi is aged either 21 or 22.
Ms Abdi was keep in solitary confinement in Urmia, with two officers with her constantly to prevent her talking to anyone.
A second inmate said: “She was in a very shocked state. It was obvious that she hadn’t taken a shower for a long time, and her hair was very messy. She was very scared.”…
More than 500 people have been killed in an Iranian government crackdown since the start of the protests, with in excess of 18,000 arrested – including pregnant women.
