Maybe this is why America and Israel want war with Iran... because they hold their criminal bankers accountable. You know... I wonder how quickly the FED would get their stuff together if the fear of being executed was being held over their heads?


Economist Nouriel Roubini added his two cents on the subject, reporting to Bloomberg: “Bankers are greedy; they’ve been greedy for the last hundreds of years...t’s not a question if they are more immoral today then they were a thousand years ago, you have to make sure they behave in ways in which you minimize those risks.”


and here's some common sense...


Perhaps Iran is on to something by enforcing real consequences when insiders mess with the country's entire economic system. The death sentence decision is obviously harsh (Iran's justice system is pretty harsh in general). Alas, what's decided cannot be undone. They said they are trying to set an example. Elite criminals shouldn't be treated differently than any other criminal; they should be prosecuted, not protected.

I still think our way of Handling Crooked Bankers is better.
After Wall Street nearly brought the World to its knees in 08, they Received Bailouts and Bonuses.
Wait, what...

In America they own the government the tax payer and the economy, so they get to screw the tax payer and move on to relax in splendor and luxury after screwing their costumes.

I will have no problem sitting comfortable in from of the execution block watching some of the filthy US banksters been executed for fraud, because it will be years before they get them all, as they are all corrupted, add also their whores in congress while at it.

Where is the darn popcorn.

I am all for the death penalty for corruption. Iran have it right. The military, the banksters, the police, the government, the CEO's of corrupt corporations, and those who willingly and knowingly do their bidding, all of those who wage war and destroy innocent lives for profit both home and abroad should be given the death penalty.

Maybe Iran could post something on youtube ?

If we could get our courts to do this, I'd bring cheese popcorn for everybody. We seem to do the opposite, we reward them for stealing.

If we could start doing that here maybe we could actually put all of those "FEMA coffins" to good use, I'm not sure we have enough of them stocked up though.

Who are they?




Four people were sentenced to death on charges of corruption and disrupting the country’s economic system by the Iran Judiciary. The four are Mahafarid Amir-Khosravi, Behdad Behzadi, his legal advisor, Iraj Shoja, his financial solicitor and Saeed Kiani Rezazadeh, head of the Ahvaz branch of Saderat Bank. Other defendants were handed down sentences including imprisonment and cash fines. The defendants stood trial for misappropriating a total of USD2.6 billion of funds by using forged documents to obtain credit from banks to purchase state-owned companies. However, almost none of the companies involved in this case were ordered closed by the court.

To bad we dont do the same, or at least put them in jail.

Makes me sick these bankers can gamble away tax payers money, make huge profits, and when they get cought they just pay fines from a portion of those profits.

Even more sad is when a bankers bet goes south, they come crawling to the tax payer for a bailout. all the reward and no risk. Wish life was that ease for main street

I support the idea of "denying ignorance".

Or... does the idea of accurate reporting get thrown out the window in the face of murderous revenge fantasies?
