Several crane manufacturers have stopped trading with Iran.... a bit late now, though.
The poor guy in the pictures was terrified and crying, according to news reports. He begged for forgiveness and was crying for his mother, say several Iranian news agency reports. Very sad... but at least he owned the gym guy, for which he deserves some respect. So in the earlier pictures where he appeared to be smiling, he's not at all.... he was shouting and crying, as you can see in the last set of pics: you can see the tears on his face. Genuinely tragic story. They shouldn't string up guys who are not adults, although in Iranian years he was, I guess.
Yeah, they love this stuff in Iran: camera phones, cameras, videos, thousands of cheering people. I guess they don't have soap operas. But let's face it, if they hanged people in public in the UK, it'd be even worse. The Sun and the Daily Mail and all those other shitty newspapers would all be out in force with their cameras. It's the society those journalists secretly want.
Whenever there is trouble or someone commits a serious crime, those papers are the first to say "Hang them! Whip them!" But when Iran does it, they get all 'holier than thou' about it. Hypocrites.
