How can the Obama admin consider Miss North Dakota's release to be a 'humanitarian gesture'

When it was the Iranian government that seized her and threw in jail on trumped up charges to begin with?

Although according to this report she had a classified document in her possession and horrors!  Had visited Israel four or five times.  Not only that, she was having sex with Iranian officials!  (Hmmm.  It couldn't have been this <---Iranian official, could it?  Nah!)

And what's this about her freedom coming about after Ahmadinejad sent a letter to the judges?

In the face of the outcry, Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, wrote to the country's judiciary chiefs, saying that she should be given full rights of defence and appeal.

Some Iranian websites yesterday credited Ahmadinejad's intervention with securing Saberi's release, but said Iran had lost out because it had failed in return to win the release of diplomats that the government says are being held by American forces in Iraq.

If Michael Ledeen is right, you can look for the release of the Iranian diplomats forthwith.

Remind me...I'm aging...but don't teenaged girls in Iran that are caught having sex get stoned to death...or maybe I'm thinking of another friendly nation.

Yep, those bad guys will be hitailing it across the border, high 5-ing all the way, so they don't hate us.
