Sometimes a picture tells the whole story, in the end.
“Shane Bauer (C) , one of the U.S. hikers who was held in Iran on charges of espionage, hugs fiance Sarah Shourd (R) upon his arrival in Muscat after his release from Tehran's Evin prison, September 21, 2011. Three hikers, Shane Bauer, Josh Fattal and Sarah Shourd were arrested by Iranian forces in July 2009 near the unmarked border with Kurdistan, a semi-autonomous region of northern Iraq, on suspicion of spying after crossing into Iran from Iraq. Bauer's fiance Sarah Shourd, was released in September 2010 after 410 days in solitary confinement.

I hope they found a way to get out their pictures and I am sure they will provide good intel.

And we're going to keep referring to them as um... hiker's. The CIA has a new buzz word. "what do you do for a living?"" I'm a hiker." LOL.

These fucking morons need to be shot. Who goes hiking on the Iraq/Iran border? They deserve what they got when they were arrested by Iran. They did not deserve to be bailed out.
