I know that you're a criminally insane Zionist psychopath who wants to bring a racial armageddom upon mankind so the "Chosen People" can stand alone. You don't have to remind us; all rational people around the world know this.
The people whining to get these three released need to realize that you don't get out of jail in another country for being an American. They aren't special and should do the time for what they did.
All three are Jews,but the media goes through contortions to avoid ever mentioning this fact.
Had they been Christian charity workers,Iranians,Amish,Scientologists or Satanists we would all know it by now.
All three are spies and should be hanged for interfering in another nation that has been threatened by the US and the global terrorist that masquerades as a state, Israel.
The problem is not the fact that they've been arrested (which is totally normal), but the fact that we don't know how the prisonners will be treatened by Iran.
So, fuck them, they werent suposed to be there in the first place. If you are going in a warzone you better be prepared for some action Jack. And how i know USA they must be spyes. USA the biggest lyer state. I pray for his people they are blind and stupid fat m.f.
Iran is an evil country? :)) What about USA?the most "civilized" country with the highest crime. Whats the diference betwen beheading someone and droping a bomb on a hospital? The most dictatorial country is USA, where you have no rights, with a goverment, its only purpose is to give you the impresion that you have the right to choose. YOU DON'T. God bless America :)). U think that god is chosing his favorites. God didnt give a shit about America in the past and it wont today or in future.
If Iran harms any of them, the U.S should bomb their ass back to the stone age. I don't care if the hikers are morons or not. Iran is an evil country with a ruthless dictator who will manipulate anybody. I say we pull our troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan and deal with the real problem. Then we should pull out of there all together after Iran. It's all because they don't agree on religion. It will never change. They will always hate each other and kill each other.
These people were warned. They are typical Berkley morons. They put all of us at risk because of the demands that Iran is now asking ie money release of prisoners or a pass on their nukes.
Berkeley is a well known recruitment location for US intel agencies. They seek "out of the box" thinkers from there. Regrettably 1 or more are probably associated with one or more intel agencies.
Why? CIA hmmm. I tell you you just don't find 3 people out enjoying themselves on a hiking trip during wars and tensions between two rival places. Had it been 3 Iranians by plane, cubans by water or Mexicans by land they would all be arrested. They'll send them home but not after questioning. I say there stupid...why not hike in another country. Thats why your always the first to die in scary movies cause you do stupid stuff like this.
They're white Berkley students interested in human rights and studying middle eastern culture; yea they were stupid for believing in such a notion: shouldn't have to pay too much for naivetee though.
Goddamn neo-hippies causing international incidents. Now, Sen. Murray of my home state of Washington is spending her time writing a letter to encourage their release. These people have no shame. I'm pretty sure there are more pressing problems for our government to be tackling right now.
Death to bastard khameini that orderd the padasdsrn to Shot the peacefully Demonstration against the molla regim in Iran and Viva all the iranian People that decided to overthrow this fashist regim from Iran and also we Support the modjahedin that they spend thier whole Life for our Freedom,Long live Iran Long live modjahedin
I heard this time GW Bush offered to help by flying to Iran to seek America's wanderers released. But their relatives rejected the offer for fear that they may stay longer in hard labor prison camps. Look like Bill Clinton is in high demand right now.
The three U.S. citizens are subjet to the worse type of abuse possible and will be used as pawns in some game that is unfolding right now. The Iranian regime tramples on human rights all the time, it has been widely reported that prisoners are abused, they tortured and reaped and some die under the brutality by the inhuman thugs. Please keep the story alive and write your reps for action against this rogue regime, the scourge of humanity.
to bimakan,I am not for Iranian regime and I am agree this is regime violate human rights but a bout this CIA agents I dont care what they do with them this is danger of their work so dont come hier with story a bout hicking in border between Iraq and Iran and try to say this are american innocent students ,
I wonder what happend if American capture 3 Iranian in Border between Mexico and USA and they say they were their for hicking lol
mmmmkay....lets keep it Iranian here, ok? mexicans....nah, different story. 3 US citizens in Iran? ok, we all know these Iranian fucks are well....fucked.years of yelling infidels....but one new iphone, and they all want it. so fuck them.even pointing out the close proximity of Iran to Iraq.....smart. even smarter....hey....we wanna be like you capitalist pigs....so we captured 3 US citizens......what a crock! smart move! i hope the bomb that blows up your cave is named "Betty"....:o)
Stegal you really shouldn't speak of matters you know nothing about. Three mexicans didn't come across the borders, millions did. Also, they aren't in search of FOOD, starving to death in Mexico is relatively rare. They want higher paying jobs. They make a day's wage in Mexico in one hour in the U.S.. In addition, you do realize that if you are going to call Americans "thieves" then you can call most people in most countries "thieves", including Europeans.
Iran is getting closer and closer to getting it's ass beat by either the US or Israel, but as far as these stupid fucks go... they should have known better than to go "hiking" anywhere near Iran, or Iraq for that matter. Common sense.... they look like dirty hippies... maybe that's why they failed to think about the consequences.
everyone in the world knows that israel can't do shit to iran.. if israel takes iran on by them selves, irsael will be gone..correct me if im wrong..however the U.S is able to beat iran no problem..since they have bases everywhere in the middle east, (Kuwait and Suadi) both are beside iran and they got huge U.S military bases there..
i think you underestimate Israel's military capability.... in a place where war and combat is such a commonplace thing . I would say they have one of the better trained, supplied, and combat hardened armies in the world and definitely in the region. You also forget that most of the other arab nations do not like Iran, or the idea of Iran with a nuke.
Isn't the world getting bored with all the school yard antics that seem to play out in the international media. Seems no matter how old you get or what amount of power you assume to possess you are still just a little school yard bully and that goes for both sides of the argument
I wonder what will happen if 3 mexican were cought " hiking in the u. s border" do you think they will be arrested? iran = usa both do the same kind of shit.
hahahah hiking in Iraq and Iran border and mistakely they are in Iran border ,they are 3 tourist and they are innocent young people who lost their LOL
give me a break who you kidding atleast come with better story
In Iran in recent times: a 16 year old girl was hung for 'acts of impurity'; 2 teenage boys were hung for alleged homosexual activity. Great nation.
It's president has said there was no holocaust, and has pledged to destroy Israel. But, since Iran hates the U.S., it will have the support of American liberals, especially the Hollywood types.
please allah..behead them dumb fuckers..They must think americans are the dumbest shits on the planet for even trying that..I think I'll go run a marathon in Somalia..with an American flag on my back, anyone wanna come?
if anyone is stupid enough to go hiking anywhere in the middle east then you deserve whatever happens to you. You must be a serious idiot to go hiking over there,.
yeah right, another CIA boo boo opration that hits the fan, but I love the way CNN plays it off like people are dumdumbs as if Iraq is a spot to go for tourists, yes man and while yoall are there take a walk on the wild side where Iran is and enjoy the view, nice one!!!???@@!!!!! hihi
I don't know who gets the Darwin award here. Euna Lee and Laura Ling knowingly crossing into the DPRK (which they still state after being home), or these morons who call their friend and say "uhoh, we might have crossed into Iran". It's a tough choice.
Im sure being tourists they could easily make a mistake of where they were. If they make such a big deal out of tourists who appreciate their beautiful landscapes and not over there to steal jobs, get free medial and welfare like the problem we have here..maybe we should hire them to watch our boaders as well.
They were stupid americans that refused to respect a war zone. we should leave them in iran, and let it be a lesson to other americans. unless you are part of the solution, like the army, stay the fuck away from the middle east. those areas are for real men, not little boys who can't even commit to their own military.
tourists my ass...they were definitely spies...i mean who the fuck goes hiking in iraq ? are you fucking kidding me...USA is so vast and beautiful and has so many beautiful forests and mountains, and these assholes go to hike in iraq...give me a break...they were spies and the iranian officials know this
they refused orders from border guards....the same thing happens in the U.S when anyone enters the U.S illegally so too bad...i mean ..these people should be released obviously if the tourists did this with no harmful intentions but the government of Iran just did what any western government does to people illegally entering their country ...so this isn't really a controversy unless they hold the tourists for a while.
Right! U.S citizens going to Iraq for tourism...lmao...how ridicilous that there are people believing in this overly obvious cover story. When even U.S soldiers are praying to get out of there due to efficient use of IED attacks.
The people arrested were likely those giving logistical support to the C.I.A engineered election protest in Iran. American tourism in Iraq right close to Iran will catch on one day, but not now!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@ Christina Watkinson,
your comment shows that you are ignorant un educated stupid b*tch to claim that most Americans are part Native American. Stupid fuck.. Do u really think that Injuns have cross-breeding with every other immigrants in America? Shut ur fucking face..
"Most of the people" you know, Well, how many people do u know in 50 states? Maybe you were raised in an Injun casino or Injun reservation lands.. That's how little knowledge you have there.. I bet you never even travel outside your small town of yours and I bet you you haven't earned your HSchool diploma yet.. How do u know that u have 6.25% Injun blood? Wow!! that must be a complicated mathematical formula.
Stupid tourists never heard about what happened to the reporters who crossed into North Korea?? Why would they go strolling into Iran?? Pro Tip: If you're American on vacation abroad, SAY YOU'RE CANADIAN!!! lol
alas AP just spews some junk without a good explanation about the "WHY" - gotta like that new lazyman's twitter info-mercial rant style reporting. Really peaks the interest-(((
Poor people. Obama is going to allow them to die just like the North Korean prisoners. Obama can suck a cock while he's waiting for poll numbers to tally.
makeinstall - You're a joke and need to educate yourself on how the world works a bit more. Are we supposed to start WWIII for 3 hikers that had no business there anyway? You're an idiot, get your own brain instead of right wing talking points.
SO, attacking Iran will set off WW3. What fantasy world do you live in? Remember your stupid president said Iran is a tiny threat. How can a tiny threat start WW3 or are you saying Obama was wrong when he made that ignorant statement.
makeinstall- Ok, so you are ready to fight a war in three different countries? It's always the assholes who wants to send someone else to fight.. You and Dickhead Cheney should be the first one's on the ground fighting. You're an idiot and have no knowledge of how the world works. So your ready for an immediate military response for 3 hikers? lol, like Bush/Cheney that bankrupted this country you're an dumbass.
Fight a war in three different countries? You mean Obama hasn't pulled us out of Iraq yet and is now building up troops in Afghanistan.
And did I say we needed immediate military response? NO. I never did.
But your useless president should make a statement immediately. Hey maybe he'll say the same thing your saying. Maybe he'll say their stupid tourists and deserve to be held hostages. You think?
makeinstallidiot- Ofcourse the US hasn't pulled completely out of Iraq yet, the unnecessary war started by Bush/Cheny that bankrupted the country and extended the US military to far. Unlike, you and Bush this administration dosen't shoot from the hip without all the facts. It's been less than 24 hours. I do think these tourist or whatever they are are stupid to even be in that region and waste our time when there are bigger things to focus on.
Who agrees someone's position all the time? I just made the point he is your president if you live in the US. Just like Bush was president unfortunatly.
I guess Bush/Cheney was your hero? The so-called conservatives bankrupted the country and spent more than any administration in history. Also, so-called conservatives love to send other people's children to war to die for a stupid idea of spreading democracy around the world through jesus christ, lol. Your an idiot and simpleton, I'm sure Rush Limbaugh gave you your talking points. I could care less about Chavez as far as I'm concerned he is a dictator. Are you now ready to invade Venezuela,
I didn't vote for the asshole. I don't support the asshole and I hope he fails in his little personnel wealth and power building term. I do not accept his Kenyan roots, lies and false promises of hope to the American people. Obama is a disgrace and I will never bow down and serve this asshole.
makeinstallidiot- There you go again idiot. I didn't vote for Bush, but he was the president, even though he was a total failure, I did not want him to fail, because if he did the country failed. Your code work for Kenyan roots means you don't like him because he's part black. You're a disgrace and probably a bigot/racist. You're the asshole just because you don't agree with the President, you can be respectful.
Why the hell are people talking about Iraq and WMDs??? or even Bush or Obama?? This is strictly the case of three American idiots wandering around where they have NO business being. I hope not one life is risked to pull these assholes out of there.
Wow, and you believe the Iranian story. I guess you have never heard of our troops being drug into or forced to cross the Iraq - Iranian border.
Your ignorance is just amazing, right now there are hundreds of people on trial and being executed or put into prison, why the hell do you think Iran took American prisoners. I'll give your dumb ass a clue - distraction for people like you.
Dumbfucks. Sadly, we have become a nation of dumbfucks. There have been nothing but dumbfucks running for office since I have been old enough to vote.
Man I tell you the right wing lunatics are out for blood. What does Obama have to do with stupid so called tourist hiking on the Iranian border? I wonder what would Bush have done?
we do not need tourist in any of those countries why allow them to go there Wereally do not need a over wieght American photographing thin poor hungry middle easterners I want to say more but Obama will say that they are stupid and then ask if they want a BEER to say He is sorry
Sounds like an Iranian set-up for an international incident that juuust fails to qualify as hostage-taking... and, only if you take the Iranians' word for what happened.
If we have spies in Iran, they're not going to be anything like these turkeys, or the Iranian-American journalist they arrested last year for """spying""". To them, it's just a game.
hostages are not the same as "criminals" if these dipshits went to iraq i think they knew what risk they were taking. they crossed a border, they broke a law. if iran decides to manipulate our politics again i can see idiots in the red state of mind, following the script as perfectly as last time.
You know what if American tourist are stupid enough to go hiking stradeling the border with Iran, I could care less what happens to them. It's not worth the time of effort of the American government. They are idiots.
sunshinyday11- This is not a political question, it's one about stupidity. It's not a liberal thing, everyone know's during the republican Bush adminishtration this country has been bankrupted and sent on unnecessary military adventures like Iraq.
Now that is funny. Why did we get into a war with Iraq again? WMD, to free the Iraqis and give-I mean force our democracy on them or to control their-I mean our oil, or are all of the above? That was Bush and his boys that did that-they aren't liberals. How do you know they aren't some Jesus freaks trying to convert Muslims?
If do happen to be tourist I say fuckem..If you don't have the brain cells to realize..Maybe Iran isn't probably the hottest vaca spot..You don't deserve to live.
they was on vacation and got lost in iran lol can't people lie anymore. thats like the like when they arrested the professor for breading into his own home and was insulted because they were called racists. these lies don't leave nothing for the imagination. is this a sign that the anti Christ is here?
haha vacationing in war torn Iraq and being like ahhh this isn't dangerous enough lets go to Iran. YEH RIGHT. So what were these people really doing. And if they are just tourists why haven't their names been mentioned yet?
We need to keep our asses away from those borders! What the hell is wrong is people like those two in Korea, who somehow wandered into off-limit territory..Then when they get caught, they want to be rescued. Keep the hell away from "iffy" places such as these!
Only 3 Mexicans? Give me a freaking break. Thousands of you thieves jump our borders everyday and millions are here illegally How is that NEWS? You obviously have no respect for the US or our laws, so get OUT!

Im sure being tourists they could easily make a mistake of where they were. If they make such a big deal out of tourists who appreciate their beautiful landscapes and not over there to steal jobs, get free medial and welfare like the problem we have here..maybe we should hire them to watch our boaders as well.

They were stupid americans that refused to respect a war zone. we should leave them in iran, and let it be a lesson to other americans. unless you are part of the solution, like the army, stay the fuck away from the middle east. those areas are for real men, not little boys who can't even commit to their own military.

they refused orders from border guards....the same thing happens in the U.S when anyone enters the U.S illegally so too bad...i mean ..these people should be released obviously if the tourists did this with no harmful intentions but the government of Iran just did what any western government does to people illegally entering their country ...so this isn't really a controversy unless they hold the tourists for a while.

Right! U.S citizens going to Iraq for tourism...lmao...how ridicilous that there are people believing in this overly obvious cover story. When even U.S soldiers are praying to get out of there due to efficient use of IED attacks.
The people arrested were likely those giving logistical support to the C.I.A engineered election protest in Iran. American tourism in Iraq right close to Iran will catch on one day, but not now!

murk2002 2 years ago
Hey moron, unlike you.
Ive been there done that.
Fight a war in three different countries? You mean Obama hasn't pulled us out of Iraq yet and is now building up troops in Afghanistan.
And did I say we needed immediate military response? NO. I never did.
But your useless president should make a statement immediately. Hey maybe he'll say the same thing your saying. Maybe he'll say their stupid tourists and deserve to be held hostages. You think?
makeinstall 2 years ago
makeinstallidiot- Ofcourse the US hasn't pulled completely out of Iraq yet, the unnecessary war started by Bush/Cheny that bankrupted the country and extended the US military to far. Unlike, you and Bush this administration dosen't shoot from the hip without all the facts. It's been less than 24 hours.

You're the asshole just because you don't agree with the President, you can be respectful.
