Adnan Hassanpour must be free unconditionally. The
new unproven evidence against him can not be
admissible so late, hence he is not guilty based on
the universal "Double Jeopardy" legal clause
November 13, 2007
New York, Steve Tataii, (eKurd.net), -- The news of
upholding Kak Adnan Hassanpour's execution,
and annulling Kak Hiwa Botimar's death sentence:

I LIKE TO ADD THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS, WHICH I HOPE
YOU'LL READ AFTER READING THE NEWS: MY COMMENTS ARE: |

Kurdistan and

ADNAN HASSANPOUR'S EXECUTION WOULD BE HANGING AN
INNOCENT MAN, WHOSE FREEDOMS AS A JOURNALIST IN
WRITING SOME KNOWN FACTS ARE BEING DISTORTED FOR AN
IMPOSED ACCUSATION. WHICH THE COURT HAS NOT PROVEN
WITH EVIDENCE. IF THERE IS EVIDENCE, WHY HAVEN'T
THEY PUBLISHED IT? IF NOT, THEN THIS IS A PLOT.
THE CLAIMS MADE BY THE COURT DOES NOT HOLD ANY
WATER, BECAUSE HASSANPOUR COULD NOT HAVE POSSIBLY
BEEN ABLE TO REPORT ISLAMIC REPUBLIC'S MILITARY
POSTS, AND IF HE HAS REFERRED TO SOME POSTS; THIS IS
JUST NOT ENOUGH BE PLACED IN CRIME OF TREASON
CATEGORY. THIS MAKES IT A WORLD COMMUNITY'S
BUSINESS, PROBLEM IN A VERY PERSONAL WAY TO SOLVE
IMMEDIATELY. WE MUST ACT NOW.
THESE POSTS ARE EASILY SPOTTED BY US DRONES, AND
OTHER MUCH MORE ACCURATE SPYING TOOLS, WHICH MAKES
THE ACCUSATION AGAINST HASSANPOUR CHILDISH, AND A
DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT FINDING AN EXCUSE JUST TO KILL
ANOTHER INNOCENT KURD.
THIS EXECUTION PLAN MUST BE STOPPED OR THERE WILL BE
NO END TO IT.
WE SAW HOW THEY EXECUTED "ISMAIL MOHAMADI" LAST YEAR
WITHOUT PROVING HIS GUILT TO FIT THE PUNISHMENT HE
RECEIVED. MANY MORE KURDS HAVE BEEN EXECUTED SINCE
THEN.
WHY AREN'T ALLIES RAISING THIS URGENT HUMAN RIGHTS
ISSUE? ISLAMIC REPUBLIC IS CLEARLYTRYING TO ALSO
DIVERT ATTENTIONS TO ITS OTHER DILEMMAS FACING FROM
IAEA.
THIS WOULD BE UNFORTUNATE TO SEE SUPERPOWERS REMAIN
SILENT WATCHING EXECUTION AFTER EXECUTION OF THE
KURDS, THE LARGEST NATION WITHOUT A COUNTRY SINCE
1923 (NO THANKS TO GREAT BRITAIN - FRANCE,
PARTITIONING KURDISTAN CALLOUSLY).
DIVERSION OF ATTENTION OR NOT, THESE EXECUTIONS MUST
STOP, AND THIS ONE IS ABOUT TO BE CARRIED OUT WITH
NO GIVEN DATE. WHY THE COURT DID NOT RAISE ITS NEWLY
ANNOUNCED ACCUSATIONS MONTHS AGO? THIS IS ANOTHER
GROUND FOR DISMISSAL OF HASSANPOUR'S DEATH SENTENCE
BASED ON WHAT IT IS CALLED "DOUBLE JEOPARDY" AGAINST
THE ACCUSED IN ALL CIVILIZED STATES' LEGAL SYSTEM.
ISLAMIC REPUBLIC MUST ADHERE TO THOSE BASIC LAWS,
WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN LOUDLY RAISED BY UN, AND
OTHERS AS MENTIONED.
IT APPEARS; THAT THESE "DIVERSIONS OF ATTENTIONS"
ARE NOT BY COINCIDENT, AND TURKEY IS ALSO USING PKK
IN SUCH A DRAMATIC FASHION, WITH SYRIA, AS IT WAS
REPORTED BY NEWS AGENCIES, CONDONING TURKEY'S
ATTEMPTS AT MAJOR MILITARY CROSS BORDER OPERATIONS.
WHO DO THEY THINK THEY'RE FOOLING? THEIR TIMING
CLEARLY INDICATES; THAT THEIR FOOLISH BLOODY GAMES
ARE AIMED AT SLOWING DOWN KIRKUK'S REFERENDUM, AND
HER RETURN ALONG WITH OTHER KURDISH PARTS, TO THE
SELF-RULE KURDISTAN REGION OR KRG.
IF THIS CONTINUES; THESE MUTUALLY "THREE STATE"
COLLABORATION AT THEIR LAST GASP TO DERAIL KURDISH
PEOPLE'S PEACE, STABILITY, AND THEIR GOD GIVEN
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS KEPT BEHIND BY THESE INVADERS
SINCE 1923 WILL LEAVE
THEM WITH SHAME, AND LEAD TO DIPLOMATIC HARDSHIPS
FOR YEARS TO COME, NOT MENTIONING OTHER MUCH BIGGER
WARS THEY'LL ALL LOOSE LIKE NEVER BEFORE.
THE PEOPLES OF THESE THREE STATES MUST WORK TOWARD A
BETTER GOVERNMENT, AND REMOVE THEIR PRESENT POWER
HUNGRY, SELF-SERVING REGIMES WITH PEACEFUL,
DEMOCRATIC MEANS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.
