On the Program Today: State Murder in Iran


Just two weeks ago we celebrated the halting of the execution of Makvan Mouloodzadeh, a 21-year-old Iranian who was being killed for his "crime" committed at the age of 13.

Horrifically, that decision was overturned and Mouloodzadeh was executed this week. I'll be speaking with Iranian-born Hossein Alizadeh, Communications Coordinator for the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, about this sad and outrageous turn of events, 3:30 ET.

Also: Doug Ireland of Gay City New, who spoke with the journalist who covered the trial in Iran.
