Former US Marine sentenced to death in Iran

[dandarez]

A former U.S. Marine from Arizona has been sentenced to death by an Iranian court for being a CIA spy.

Ironically, Amir Mirzaei Hekmati, is a Iranian-American!
He was convicted of working with a hostile country, belonging to the Central Intelligence Agency and trying to accuse Iran of involvement in terrorist activities, Iranian media reported.

He served as a Arabic translater in the military.

Can of worms opening, what with Dinnajacket in Venezuela and possibly on his way to Cuba too for oil deals.
I read one headline saying 'Yanks in shock'.

That's not ironic.

I suppose an Iranian would be an ideal spy in Iran. I expect DJ to make a big song and dance about treacherous Western swine and then let him off at the last minute as an indication of his magnificent humanity

Alright then, it's a 'coincidence'.
I thought if I put 'coincidentally' the average PH wouldn't get it, but I was wrong.
(Unless you're not an average PH'r?)

I realise how pedantic IM being today, but nonetheless I feel compelled to guess that its no coincidence either
Sorry, Ive just realised that this little horror of pedanticness makes me an 'average Pher'
Im off.

This. Much like the three "hikers" who strayed over the border into Iran (or not, depending on who you believe...)
