They really are bastards over there, aren't they?
A snippet from Ms. Saberi's NPR interview courtesy of Gawker.
The government pressured her into a false confession; "The first few
days, I was interrogated for several hours, from morning until evening,
blindfolded, facing a wall, by up to four men, and threatened, as I
said, that I would be put in prison for 10 to 20 years or more or even
face execution." Later, she recanted it, and that pissed off her
captors further:
The prosecutor got upset with me for recanting my confession and sent my case to trial instead of freeing me, and that's when I was sentenced to eight years in prison. I knew this was going to happen when I recanted my confession, but I told myself, I would rather tell the truth and stay in prison instead of telling lies to be free.
Welcome home, Ms. Saberi.
Yeah welcome home, she survived those savages, hopefully she'll do her bit to spread the word.

I'm glad to see she made it home alive and well, too MK. ANd she certainly looks happier in this picture than she looked in all the pics I've seen of her taken during her Iranian days. (Alas, I'm afraid she's a hard core Moonbat and doubt that she will come down hard on the current regime.)
