Huh. My hat is off - figuratively speaking - to this young woman. It would take a great deal of intestinal fortitude and a true belief in what your were doing to get any rational American into Iran.

(Or greed, come to think of it; although it is certainly not the case here, we do continually seem to find the occasional American who puts profits before ethics and even the law and so mucks about in Iran. Go figure, eh?)

I dont who this woman is, but Im sorry that she's a pawn in the conflict between America, Israel, and Iran. America is aiming to remove the Iranian ruling establishment and set up a capitalist nation which will allow America to access its oil, gas, and strategic position between the Caspian and Persian/Arabian Gulf.
America also authorized spies to use 'journalist' as a cover. Iran's SAVIMA and the world's intel agencies know this. Thus, any American journalist in Iran could potentially be a spy. Its only logical. The US Congress has passed an act authorizing the overthrow of the Iranian regime. Its only reasonable to assume that ngos and orgs in Iran that recieve US $ are working as agents.
An FBI agent in the vicinity of Iran could be a spy as well.
