Saudi Arabia peacefully executes 47 terrorists in one day
Quote:
Saudi Arabia has executed 47 people convicted of 'terrorism' today, including a prominent Shiite cleric behind anti-government protests, according to the interior ministry.
Shiite Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr, a 56-year-old cleric was a driving force of the protests that broke out in 2011 in the Sunni-ruled kingdom's east, where the Shiite minority complains of marginalisation.
Scores of Shi'ite Muslims marched through the Qatif district of Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province in protest at the execution of cleric Nimr al-Nimr, an eyewitness said.
You don't realize the potential threat those anti-government protests would eventually cause if they're tolerated?
Of course there would be some casualties, but executing them is not a justifiable excuse.
They could just lock them up in a cell but instead they decided to go with "peaceful" way.
