You have to hand it to the Iranians. They have set the trap and the Administration walked into it.

The girl is out of prison but certainly not free. Forget the bond, the Iranians continue to hold the girls two companions, one of which is reportedly her fiancé. Now sinse she is out on bail, it portends a return to Iran to face trial. Her two friends are still under Iranian control, and I dare say at their mercy.

When Iran needs to apply pressure the trial will be called and the girl will be compelled, if not by law, by moral obligation to return to Iran, and the episode starts anew.

Nah, I predict that the other jerks will soon be released. They might try to get some ransom from them.

Well there is no requirement for the government to pay so I imagine they won't.

A book publishing company may front the money and take it off the top of the book sales... assuming the American people are so stupid as to buy a book written by these idiots.

the whole can be planned from the beginning to go down and sit by the time to sell the story so that they do not have to work more,but o the other hand, it is not so much about whether the publisher had spent money..

Muscat, Oman (CNN) -- Before beginning her journey back home to America, freed American hiker Sarah Shourd on Saturday thanked Oman for securing her release and said that nation would forever occupy a special niche in her heart as the place where she regained her freedom.

"I will always associate your country with the first breath of my freedom," she told reporters at Muscat International Airport. "The sweet smell of sandalwood. Standing by the ocean and listening to the waves.
