For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Iran to world: Stoning? What stoning?

Ashtiani “confessed” on Iranian state tv
Sure she did.
http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jHbiu...26P80
Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtian is shown on Iran State TV as railing against her lawyer:
http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jHbiu...26P80
" "Why did he televise the case? Why did he discredit me before my family members and relatives who didn't know I'm in jail?" she said. "Now, I have a complaint against him." "
The above script does not ring true. As if any of her family members and relatives did not know her current circumstances.
Iran has now rejected the offer of asylum from Brazil:

I urge indymedia commenter's to read devastating article regarding very brave Nigerian Journalist. His parents suffered horrendous abuse (at hands of demented thugs) in his pursuit for justice.
Amnesty International has a proforma Appeal letter to Mohammad Javad Larijani - Secretary General, High Council for Human Rights in Iran, to stop the execution of Sakineh.

honour killing is part of sharia law,and international laws are frequently ignored,human rights is not an issue in iraq or any of these muslim countries with sharia law,sharia law is heavily entertwined with their faith..there are parts of the world(muslim) where you can walk and see some people who have thier limbs cut off and tounges missing..

--> The most recent update that I've heard reportedly from her son is that Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani has been punitively lashed/scourged for baring her face in the photo published by the mainstream media. According to her son, this was not the face of his mother: Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani. It was a photo of a well known female activist.
It's interesting that only her son and other close relatives would really know what she looked like, as she is required to cover her face.
I hope this news story isn't true. Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani is being hanged for murder today according to International Committee Against Stoning (Icas) website:
