Note to self, don’t go to Iran. I mean really, what American in their right mind would just go off to that God forsaken country? I don’t care what she wanted to learn about her heritage, some people just don’t think.
I’m Iranian, I am going to Iran because it is my heritage!
Gets arrested...
I’M AN AMERICAN I’M AN AMERICAN!!!!!!! YOU CAN’T ARREST ME! I’M AN AMERICAN!
FWIW, America has used journalists and students as spies, as has every other country.
I have no idea whether this lady had a relationship with US intelligence, but it is not logical to just assume that the charges are completely bogus.
“a citizen of both Iran and the United States”
When did USA start allowing dual citizenship? I feel for the girl - but she CAN’T be BOTH!
Is this the same female journalist who got arrested for being in the country illegally or is this another one?
I’m sorry, but those women knew exactly what their fate would be upon entering the country. No, it’s not right by American thought but that isn’t America. Thinking she could get by with it just because she can claim she’s half Iranian is plain stupidity.
