Three UC Berkeley Graduates Detained in Iran

Since July, three UC Berkeley graduates have been detained in Iran. The three are held captive after crossing an unmarked border on a hiking trip.

Family and friends of the hikers organized vigils across the nation. They call it, "The Vigils of Hope". One of the vigils was held in Berkeley.

That's right,someone,or some nation doesn't want a spotlight placed on these "fun loving,wayward hippy kids" since the gullible sheep in the US populace may wake up and see who these kids are and what "tribe" they are with.

The tribe that they are part of is actively attempting to get the US to destroy another one of their well deserved enemies-an enemy that hasn't invaded another nation for over 300 years(Persia/Iran).

@dgl1962 this story seems so fishy.. why would anyone be hiking in iraq? and you would think if it was on the level it would be all over the news. you know like the last time iran took hostages. instead it just gets relegated to the background, almost as if someone doesn't want the general public too interested in this story.

If these "hikers" are just that,then I do hope that they come home safely.

However,they all three just happen to be Jewish so that makes many wonder if this is some operation that they were put on by Mossad.

Remember,the motto on the Mossad shield states: "through deception thou shalt make war"...

Nobody can be considered paranoid when it comes to judging an agency with a motto like that.

I don't think that these kids aren't the "fun loving hippies" as they've been portrayed as in the MSM.
