First, I would never find myself in Iran. It's just not on my list of vacation hot spots. Second, just about everything is a capital offense in Iran. Third, there is no U.S. embassy in Iran and there hasn't been since November 4, 1979. That was the day Iran declared war on the U.S. by violating the sovereignty of our diplomatic compound.
Now, that being said... this dirtbag got a fair trial. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
i think the argument is...what if say, you're a contractor over there and you get kidnapped and they chop off your head off and try to equate not following the world court order, and they charge you by making up a bogus offense to hold against you and the u.s. was not allowed to intervene to ensure justice on your behalf.
