Unfortunately Iran doesn't give a shit what the majority of the international community thinks. Petitions will go un-noticed and none of the western Governments will be able to sway the Iranian authorities in any way at all. I'm afraid that there is very little us international citizens can do to stop Iran.
United Arab Emirates (UAE), Singapore, Indonesia and Oman are the most influential countries financially for Iran. Syria and Venezuela are also up there. Then you have China and somewhat Europe.
I think it would take UAE, Singapore, Indonesia and Oman all saying something. If the Muslim countries condemned the execution it would send a strong message to Iran. However these countries are not about to do so because all of them have similar laws.
The US, U.K or almost every other western country is powerless , we already have so many sanctions against Iran nothing we do will deter them. There isn't a single country that is influential and allied with Iran that will stick up for religious rights. I think in the end if oppression is to end in Iran it will be by the bullet. Arab spring will have to come to Iran or NATO intervention or another country invading them. But until someone takes military action against Iran, or a Muslim country close to them stops being a hypocrite Iran will do as it pleases!
All we can do is pray for this poor man and admire his faith and the balls he has to speak up for what he believes. May he be an inspiration to us all!
