IRAN: ACTOR SEAN PENN IN TEHRAN AS JOURNALIST
Tehran, 10 June (AKI) - The Hollywood actor Sean Penn is in the Iranian capital, Tehran, in his new role as a journalist for the San Francisco Chronicle. The actor, who won an Oscar for the film "Mystic River", is in the country to follow the June 17 presidential elections for the American daily. Together with an interpreter, the actor was at a Tehran mosque on Friday morning, where he heard the Ayatollah Ahmad Janna ask the faithful to turn out in large numbers to vote in the elections scheduled for next Friday, to "make America angry."
Many journalists have been denied the necessary accreditation from the Iranian authorities to cover the elections.
In previous years, before and after the US-led invasion of Iraq in March 2003, Penn travelled twice to the Iraqi capital Baghdad, where he denounced both the war and the Bush administration.

We can only hope that he will volunteer to be a hostage and they'll take him up on the offer. Until they figure out he's more helpful to them on the loose here at home. Just like Howard Dean and Nancy Pelosi.
