#1 I read several blogs and responses on this yesterday and the one that made the most sense to me is that this is a case of extortion. The mullahs seized Saberi for the purpose of receiving something in return from USA. The question is what did they receive from Clinton to release her besides being called a humanitarian country?

#2 What a coincidence the little fame-ho manages to get herself arrested (wine, anyone?) just as she's ready to return here to shop her book.

LOL I wish they'd kept her.

#3 The mullahs got something; we likely won't find out for a couple of years.
