Very misleading headline. Not appreciated. He is NOT FREE!

And what exactly has Obama done for the well-being of Christians?

So then, what’s your headline given the notable change in the pastor’s detainment status?

This just goes to strongly prove the point that Obama never cared a sh!t about anyone but himself as he left many Christians languishing in Iranian prisons while he was talking with them about the nuclear deal.

He is closer than ever to being released back home. Patience.

That should be the Trump Doctrine for any harm that comes to any American. The perps will have nowhere in the world to hide. Look at who killed Leon Klinghoffer. Mysteriously died while in American custody. As for Akmadinigiad and his cohorts in 79’...

Yes, prayers for that. I was stationed at Incirlik Air Base, Turkey, in 1982. That experience, totally soured me on Turkey. I couldn’t figure out how on earth, we could ever be allies with them. I still can’t. I thought it was the arm pit of the world, though I am sure there are other places that are worse. 😁

I agree. It’s one of my least favorite countries. I don’t much like their chosen religion either. You know, the one where they pray 5 times a day. 😁😊👎

Agreed. He and his family need to be free to leave the country. That’s the only way he’ll truly be free.

This is Turkey reneging on a deal between Turkey, Trump and Israel.

Israel released a Turkish terrorist found in Israel, supposedly in exchange for the American pastor. Turkey now seems to be backing off, so there would be a reason for Trump’s anger.

Leaks from the American side may have forced Erdogan to save face, and will eventually free the pastor.
