ok, maybe it's just me not liking to purposely walk into a war zone, but what compels three Americans to "vacation" in Iraq and accidentally wander over into Iran?
"The U.S. government and their families say there were on a hiking vacation and crossed accidentally." These "hikers" have now of course been arrested and charged with espionage - because that's the kind of thing you want to experience in Iran!
I just liken that to walking through downtown Detroit at 2 in the morning and saying "oh don't mind me, I'm just passing through" and expecting my ass to not get raped/shot/killed. Are you kidding me?!?!

Wow! These guys are dumb! I am hoping that they really are spies or were up to no good. I probably would have lied and said I was a spy. At least that isn't as embarassing as hiking around Iran!
Next year these three are going to go and explore some caves in lovely Afghanistan! That is if they make it out of Iran. -
No way! This sounds fishy...a 'vacation' in Iraq and then 'accidentally' wandering into Iran. That just doesn't sound right at all. -
@ richer44 - nathan - I think next year, these guys will STILL be in the Iranian jail LOL not to make light of it, but come on - find me one American who wants to "vacation" in Iran right now..... or in the last forty or so years!
@ TJ (aka my wedding planner) i know right? how do you "accidentally" cross a border...because there aren't border police all of the middle east?!-
Yeah exactly! It really doesn't make sense at all.
About the wedding! I also arranged the decorations and my wedding gift from me to you two is...you can choose any destination for a 3 week honeymoon! I'm just happy you two are so flexible about the wedding. It really made my life easier, no brides from outerspace and stuff like that...
Of course, you can bring anyone you want along
