temfarang Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 .. the Americans were hiking in Iraq's scenic north and that if they crossed the border, they did so unwittingly. "Based on reports and the approval of the relevant judge about the sickness of Ms. Shourd, her detention was converted to $500,000 bail, and if the bail is deposited, she can be released," the official IRNA news agency quoted Dowlatabadi as saying. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/12/iran-hiker-release-sarah-shourd_n_713631.html no idea what their goal was .. but simply hiking in scenic northern iraq is legitimately questionable http://freethehikers.org/about-the-hikers/about-the-hikers-main/about-sarah-shourd/ Sarah Shourd, 32, has been living with Shane in Damascus, where she teaches English and is learning Arabic. She previously taught as part of the Iraqi Student Project, a program which gives Iraqi students living in Damascus the skills to continue their education in US schools. She was on a break from her teaching responsibilities for a week, and she and Shane decided to take a hiking trip with their friends Josh and Shon. Sarah has written articles on travel and social issues reflecting her time in Syria, Ethiopia, Yemen and Mexico. Sarah, who has an older brother and sister, was born in Oak Park, Illinois and grew up in Los Angeles, California. She attended UC Berkeley in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she lived after graduating until moving to Damascus with Shane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCorinthian Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 no idea what their goal was .. but simply hiking in scenic northern iraq is legitimately questionable Not after reading what their friends had to say about them. I think that is exactly what they were doing. That they are total morons is what is NOT questionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temfarang Posted September 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 If they were not Jewish this would have been over long ago. the zionist continue to harm jews world wide. I can understand iran having a problem with the hikers *what would tea party types have to say about Iranians accidentally hiking into the US *or zionist have to say about iranians hiking into occupied palestine .. or palestinians hiking anywhere in palestine time for jews worldwide to denounce zionism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TroyinEwa/Perv Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 The 500k payment came with conditions that had to satisfy the Iranian governement or something to that effect. My guess is and I'm probably way off like I usually am but it came from the US government as the Iranian government would absolutely love to be able to hold that over their heads. Never be proven or discovered but that is my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
