@thielenm well he was told their names in the question. What I like is how he uses "that young man", "that young woman out there" to give him a moment to remember their names... might use that one myself sometime!
@jamesmcinerney100 it was? shit, i couldnt even remember that...even if i had heard it in the question i would totally forget 10 seconds later when i had to answer the question. gotta give the old man credit - his mind is still sharp.
@BlueRainDrop Many people do. I used to live in Iran, 100km from where this incident happened, and I know of many people who come to hike there because of the beautiful landscape. They didn't fly to Baghdad. She has taken many public questions - in fact I can't go watch the news without seeing her in interviews. The story was such huge internationally, $500,000 would not be a problem. You're right about one thing though - it's all political games. Another one of Iran's scare tactics.
@peepnklown Maybe you should read about the story first. They were hiking and accidentally stepped into Iranian territory. How does that constitute them being imprisoned for more than a year?
