A senior Iranian prosecutor said....
So, who is this guy? By any chance, was it Charles Mohammad de Tallibanrand?

Exactly, as stupid as these idiots were to hike near the border—this is case of hostages and ransom period. Time to end this regime once and for all.

we should immediately arrest the ambassador and all the consulate on grounds of extortion...
freeze the assets and convert their women.

The money came from us. I expect her to have glowing reviews of Iran and the luxurious cell she was kept in. Folks, even if they didn’t have the other two I’m betting she’d have nothing but praise for Iran. Liberals have to be clinically insane, because once Sharia kicks in, the women, gays, trans,
etc will be the first bunch to suffer, well after the Jews and Christians. It’s just nuts.

When this young lady returns, the very least that she should do is to tape a message / PSA to all of the other free spirit youths about her experiences. Wandering the ill-defined borders of an active war zone is not a well-advised venture. Going it where one of the parties is a militantly anti-American Iran is even more ill-advised, i.e. STUPID! Swim in a school of sharks long enough you eventually get killed.
Strange they're setting bail for an alleged spy and not a swap which is usually the deal. I think this is a major error on Iran's part in that bail directly conflicts with their insinuation these kids were spies and more of a hostage release similar in scope they did in the infamous 444 days"debacle.

They should pay it - in JDAMs.
To: quesney
Did the gov send her there to hike?
If not she should be responsible for paying
her ransom money.

You haven’t met some of my friends... I know a girl who rode alone with a few random nomads for weeks along the border between Mozambique and Tanzania.
But she’s been in the Peace Corps in Mali for years, she doesn’t seem to fear much anymore.

From what I’ve heard of this girl, she’s not worth it.
