Iran: 13 Days, 21 Executions, Untold Number of Limbs

As of yesterday Iran has officially executed 21 people in 2008. That's 21 in 13 days. But, as Anti-Mullah points out, that's the official estimate. Many more are simply taken to remote areas and shot. At least two have been sentenced to death by being thrown off a cliff.

This doesn't count those who aren't killed but have their hands and feet chopped off.
