While it is puzzling that the repressive Iranian regime allows Soroush to
come and go, it may be that his work 20 years ago in the Revolution has
gained him a permanent "Get out of Jail Free" card. Iran doesn't seem to
have stopped executing political opponents. I mentioned reading in
Hohaddessin's Islamic Fundamentalism, the New Global Threat that the Iranian
government had executed 100,000 members of the Mojahedin. I read in Human
Rights News that Iran is still executing members of the Mojahedin:
