I still wonder what they were doing over there, and why they were “hiking” there. Wonder why they don’t elaborate on THAT.
Looking at their pictures, it appears to me they were trying to establish an LGBT chapter in Tehran.

Why would Islamists pay for their release?

Josh Fattal and Shane Bauer, both 29, were flown into Muscat on an Omani Royal Air Force plane Wednesday after the Gulf sultanate of Oman paid their $1 million bail to get them released from Tehran’s notorious Evin prison. Their case had poisoned already tense ties between Tehran and Washington.
