The Dutch woman who was executed last month for alleged drug smuggling. Her body was taken away and dumped, when it should have been sent back to her parents in Netherlands for proper burial. The Dutch Ambassador to Iran has been pulled out in protest. Link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/feb/07/dutch-recall-iran-ambassador-exec...
"Her execution last month prompted the Dutch government to freeze all diplomatic contact with what it labelled a "barbarous regime" in Iran." http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5hwAoAbcldyZEYvidVX3suOoRhy...

Increased speed of execution:
http://www.examiner.com/law-enforcement-in-national/iran-executing-innocent-p...
Iran currently has one of the highest, if not the highest, execution rates in the world. It has been estimated by Human Rights Watch that within the month of January alone, at least 74 people have already been executed. At this rate more than a thousand may meet this fate by the end of 2011 - a sharp increase from previous years.
Some Iranians who opposed the elections of 2009 - which favored Ahmadinejad and were widely believed to have been rigged - have been executed.

To the Noble People of Iran,

We know how great you are. You have been killed, jailed, tortured and silenced by the illegal regime which has hijacked your country for the past thirty-two years, and yet you still rose up last year against a force that you knew meant you harm. They may kill one person every eight hours, but they can't kill your fighting spirit. They can't kill your freedom. Know that we support you. Know that you are not alone.

We are Anonymous.
We are legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect us.
