Good news, as I understand it's election year in Tehran and she's somewhat popular.

Yes I just spotted this one this morning. I think this comment sums it up:

Quote
Paris-based watchdog Reporters Without Borders last month said Saberi's conviction was a warning to foreign journalists working in Iran ahead of its presidential election in June.

From here.

Anyway the main thing is that she's out. Pity about all the Iranian journalists that are still locked up but frankly I doubt international pressure would do anything for them with an election coming up.

Devious, treacherous, murderous, neanderthal, sub-human of the West.
