Public opinion is highly polarized regarding Iran's executions of individuals accused of espionage for Israel. A significant portion of commenters express strong support for these actions, framing them as necessary for national security and a patriotic response to perceived treason. However, there are also substantial criticisms focused on human rights violations and the potential for political repression, particularly concerning the plight of Iranians and Palestinians. This division highlights a complex interplay of nationalism, geopolitical tensions, and moral concerns about the actions of both Iran and Israel.

To be clear Iran tends to just do this all the time even if they have zero connection to the events they are accused of.  It genuinely is like an execution lottery and all citizens are forced to play.

Sheesh they really are crazy and violent over there

Israel does have a huge spy network there. 

Or had.

Plot twist: the guys doing the hanging are the actual spies

One day that government will fall, I just hope the Iranian people actually get to decide who replaces it, and not foreign powers like the US, Russia, Israel, or China.

Israel do have sources of information inside Iran ehoch they use to target their strikes against Iran.



Opinions of Iran’s morality aside it’s not surprising they would retaliate against internal Israeli influence after conflict with Israel.

Israel somehow [released drone swarms from inside](https://www.timesofisrael.com/how-israel-used-spies-smuggled-drones-and-ai-to-stun-and-hobble-iran/amp/) Iran.

The only way they could have carried out the attack so effectively is by having people who look like Iranians and have a conspicuous background, set up drone bases. Israel also needed people within the Iranian security forces to help them select and target Iran’s generals.

I really dont see a problem. Any ties with Israel need swift and brute force. Israel influence needs to be stomped out. Iran has the right idea.

GailTheParagon

They certainly have their work cut out for them. Country was massively penetrated prior to the 12 Day War. Iran needs to, and undoubtedly has, massively tighten up internal security before the war restarts

"Iranian regime executes random person, claims they're an Israeli spy"

Blumpkin_Mustache

I like how OP deleted the quotes around "one of most important spies."

Own_Thing_4364

They haven't executed Mojtaba Khamenei have they?

Wouldn’t be surprising if the people who did the executing are the real spies and this was some unfortunate schlub.

&gt;“Babak’s message to President Zelenskyy offering to help in the war against Russia was used as an example of espionage for Israel who they claim taught Babak to use Microsoft Word,” the group said. Iran did not acknowledge that claim.

Iranians are masters of dark comedy with shit like this.

It's easy for zealots to find scapegoat to blame for their failure in running the country into ground.

macross1984

How many have been executed so far since the "12 day war" ?

mrpressydepress

The US is a heartbeat away from Iran style bullshit executions

I doubt a spy they actually know of is one of their most important ones.

thekipz

That poor garbage collector. 

But when he couldn't even point out Israel on a map, the mullahs knew they had their man!

ThomzLC

I guess if you execute everyone, you’re bound to get a few actual spies as well

tupe12

Wait is this the guy who was in charge of the demons?

Iran's Intel is so good they just make up Israeli spies then hang them

Be warned.  Israel will leave you to hang.

Iran lost the conventional war and the security one. So iran picks on its own population to show strength while at little risk of retaliation. They can also brand every enemy of Iran as a traitor and kill them off with little resistance

Probably the equivalent of "fell" off a balcony in Russia. Likely the intelligence needed to practice nuclear science does not lend itself to listening to the propaganda of a theocratic government whose every word is a lie.

Ok_Currency_617

You know what they say: Every accusation is a confession.

Which says a lot given this sub’s absolute fucking *obsession* with constantly calling people who aren’t sufficiently anti-Israel enough ‘Hasbara.’

And now, sub regulars tripping over their dicks to justify Iran’s atrocious human rights record and the Ayatollah’s regime really make you wonder how much a Rial buys these days.

TearOpenTheVault

The number one killer of Iranians this year, as in previous years, is the Iranian regime. They’ve executed more people than Israel has killed during the war, which is wild.

And still we will have some useful idiots around here pretending Iran has any kind of due process. The same regime that executes rape victims and imprisons young girls for what they wear.

TheJewPear

Iran has executed several individuals accused of being linked to Israel, amid ongoing tensions and human rights concerns.
