We could do a new Survivor series called: “Survivor DMZ”, the invites could be these three idiot hiker types, Penn, Micheal Moore, Susan Sarandon, Cindy Sheehan, and anyone from Code Pink...

Cindy Sheehan, Jodie Evans, Hugo Chavez,
Medea Benjamin [co-founder Code Pink]

Code Pink 'Bundles' for Barack, 4/14/2008

"The co-founder of the radical anti-war group Code Pink [Jodie Evans] has “bundled” more than $50,000 for Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, and pro-troops groups are demanding that he return the money."

November 22, 1970 -- During a fund-raising tour for GI deserters, Vietnam Veterans Against the War and the Black Panthers, Jane Fonda is quoted in the Detroit Free Press as telling a University of Michigan audience:

"I would think that if you understood what communism was, you would hope, you would pray on your knees that we would someday become communist," and "The peace proposal of the Viet Cong is the only honorable, just, possible way to achieve peace in Vietnam."

Fonda made the following statement at the University of Texas:
"We've got to establish a Socialist economic structure that will limit private profit-oriented businesses. Whether the transition is peaceful depends on the way our present governmental leaders react. We must commit our lives to this transition ...... We should be very proud of our new breed of soldier. It's not organized but it's mutiny, and they have every right." --Karen Elliott Dallas Morning News December 11, 1971

From 1972: "I am not a do-gooder, I am a revolutionary. A revolutionary woman."

It is nonsense that they got lost, at that location, a popular tourist grotto, they had to climb a very steep ridge to the east of a very well marked border to get to Iran.

They may have done so to meet others they were connected to. There is much more of the story to come out.

Why wasn’t Gore or any of the other “release” celebrities involved? Why was the ransom donor kept secret?

Even radical Iran was very angry at these three activists to keep them for 2 years, why? Normally they would be interrogated and thrown out of the country.

I often marvel at how a subject like this goes way off in another direction. BTW Code Pink counternprotestors should show up with leaflets and giant posters of thar pic of the CP murder our troops banner wherever they appear.

I was hoping there would be a posting by a FR on the background of these people. I’m aware that one of them was a film producer and has some connection to NPR but don’t have the FOH (facts on hand) to report on it. The Sultan of Oman who came up with the front money to spring these ingrates I’m sure will repeat the favor .

[elpadre]

and what did Penn and Chomsky have to do with this???

[reaganaut]

We should have left them.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Why am I reminded of John McCain?

So, you crazy, fun loving, adventurous trio....Now that you have returned from your exciting journey in the Middle East, what do you plan to do next? Disney World?

“We think that we will now go on a hike along the North and South Korean border.”

Maybe I need a tinfoil hat, but I can’t help but wonder if they were getting “training” to bring back to the fellow believers here in the states.
