Via National Review's "The Corner" I came across these pictures of some recent public hangings in Iran. Click here. While the picture I've linked to is merely poignant, some of them are graphic; e.g., closeups of guys who've just been hung.
From looking at the series of pictures, the "modern" trappings of the executions stood out to me: using cranes to suspend the men; using blue ski-rope-looking nooses.
There's no denying the sobering aspect of such a spectacle.

Whats weird is that the executions have uniforms with the word "POLICE" on them...I wonder if they get them from the US?
On second thought, we probably don't get ours from the US.
True; they probably got a good deal on them from a (Chinese) Law Enforcement Outlet Store.
Good eye, I didn't notice that.
