Contributing sentiments towards policy:

40% : All these crimes entailed the sentence of "war against God", which is punishable by the death penalty, as has been the case in this case.
37% : Mohsen Shekari was executed early this morning after he was sentenced to death on November 29 for wounding a basiji - an Islamic militant - with a knife, blocking a street and creating terror in Tehran, the Mizan agency reported.
35% : Shekari is the first protester to be executed for her participation in the protests rocking Iran since the death of Mahsa Amini in mid-September, after being arrested by the now-disbanded "morality police" for wearing the Islamic headscarf improperly.
