At least Russia was sensible and played the game by swapping agents as opposed to trying to pee the other side off, which is what this seems to be to me and is a move that will (IMHO) only ensure things escalate further.

Ex-Marine's family says he wasn't spying in Iran
WASHINGTON (AP) - The family of an American man sentenced to death in Iran for allegedly being a CIA spy says he was visiting relatives and was not spying for the CIA.
Behnaz Hekmati, mother of Amir Mirzaei Hekmati, said in an email to The Associated Press that she and her husband Ali are "shocked and terrified" that their son has been sentenced to death. She said the verdict is "the result of a process that was neither transparent nor fair."
Iran charged that Hekmati received special training and served in Iraq and Afghanistan before heading to Iran for an intelligence mission.
The 28-year-old former military translator was born in Arizona and graduated from high school in Michigan. His family is of Iranian origin.

Why is everyone assuming that he is a spy?
Just because some idiot in Iran says so?
The guy could be just a poor innocent schmuck who posted on the wrong site, had an American flag (and was turned in) or bought McDonalds at the wrong time.
-sheesh-
They just want to kill someone.
Someone half American.
Bully-nation!
Bully-nation!

:shk: Morons .... 'waging war on God' .... This is an excellent example of why secular laws are so important. Otherwise, extremist religious fanatics run things and suddenly the entire system is set back 1500 years.
So , another spy in Iran is captures and treated with Iran's internal Islamic laws.
So, Iran FAKES yet another spy situation .... no surprise there.
In other news .. Iran continues to conduct anti-American operations out of Latin America and is planning to launch a cyber war against the United States from there. More here

There is no hope for you.
Don't wake up.
Waking in the middle of hypnotizing is very harmful and will have severe consequences. Dream well.
Killing just because someone believes differently has its origins with you and yours as well.
