Not a typo, just a poorly worded headline. The executions in 2025 surged to 1639. And theyre not slowing down as theyve sentenced 4 protesters to death this year.

No, it isn’t. The 2025 execution number is past tense. It already hit the number back in December 2025. It’s a poorly worded and misleading headline.

Oh, I thought he meant the 2025 executions are not slowing down. I misread it.
The issue with the comment is the "this year", making it seem like this year is adding onto the number from last year. 4 new executions are very recent news, and not this year's total I assume.

Execution Statistics for 2026
As of mid-April 2026, the following figures have been reported:
Verified Executions: At least 145 people are confirmed to have been executed between January and early April 2026.
Reported but Unverified: Some human rights groups, such as Iran Human Rights, have received reports of an additional 400+ executions that they are currently working to verify.
Monthly Breakdown: January 2026 saw a particularly high volume, with at least 341 registered executions, continuing a trend of high monthly tolls that began in late 2025.

Agreed. In order to affect the 2025 executions at this point one would pretty much need a time machine, and instead of using it to to eliminate another poor Iranian protestor or wrestler it would be much better employed to make sure this headline was never written.

Your insane if you actually believe they stopped. There are many more than just this too
In reports released in 2016 and 2017, German intelligence highlighted the following:
Quantitative Increase: The 2016 report noted that Iran’s "clandestine" procurement activities remained at a "quantitatively high level" even after the deal was signed.
Targeting Nuclear Tech: In 2015 alone (the year the deal was finalized), North Rhine-Westphalia’s intelligence agency recorded 141 attempts by Iran to obtain technology for proliferation purposes. Roughly 90% of these were linked to nuclear or missile programs.
>Trump said we obliterated the nuclear abilities in "midnight hammer'. He says he wants their oil.
Trump says all kinds of things and I'm sure he would like a bunch of free oil. The nukes are the only thing that stopped a deal during the cease fire
Also, they're nuclear enrichment was destroyed and their storage was collapsed underground.
But they could still dig that up in the future and they can rebuild enrichment facilities.
This war is most definitely about nukes. You can even say it's for Israel because Israel doesn't want them to have nukes and you can say it's for Saudi Arabia because Saudi Arabia doesn't want them to have nukes.
America also does not want them to have nukes.

The truth many young people don’t understand is that there’s a ton of “bad” in every country, culture, group of people on the planet. Reality is rough. So it’s *really* important to dissect and analyze the bad in the both sides, compare them, and make a value judgement. One side (America, in this case) can be awful but still be vastly in the right compared to the other.

from Google AI:
Based on the most recent reports from the United Nations and Amnesty International for 2025, this is the ranking of countries with the highest number of confirmed executions:
Iran: At least 1,639 executions (the highest figure in 35 years).
Saudi Arabia: At least 356 executions (a record high for the country).
Iraq: A significant and increasing number, surpassing the 90 executions recorded the previous year.
United States: 47 executions (the highest figure in 16 years).
Yemen: Dozens of executions recorded (at least 38 in 2024).
Somalia: At least 24 executions.
Singapore: At least 17 executions.
Egypt: Maintains consistent figures, although with a reduction compared to previous years (13 people were executed in 2024).
Kuwait: A significant increase was reported in the first nine months of 2025.
Afghanistan: Public executions in sports stadiums have been reported, although an exact total is not available.
**Drug Offenses: These have been the main driver of the increase in countries such as Iran (47% of its cases)** and Saudi Arabia (78% of its cases).
State Secret: If estimates from China were included, this country would rank first with thousands more executions than the rest of the world combined.
Methods: The use of nitrogen asphyxiation has expanded in the United States, generating international controversy.

You’re a f****** idiot. This war was poorly planned and executed. Strategically the US and Israel failed to secure their vulnerabilities. Tactically, they didn’t bother with planning and follow up. No one deserved to get it than Iran, but the way it was done was f****** stupid, a 5 year old would’ve planned it better. The US started to fund and bolster separatist movements, and could’ve supplied weapons and supplies for a real democratic movement, but they went in half assed and got shown their incompetence.
