Expulsion??? How about just handing them over to the school of the Americas with orders to get any information they can out of them and then repackage them as fertilizer?

OK, how's this? We storm the Iranian embassy, hold everyone inside hostage for years, give nightly press conferences stating our demands and calling Iran dirty names, and put teams of people to work reassembling all the shredded documents from the embassy trash cans...
...oh wait, that's already been done. Just not by us. Never mind.

The men, who have been in the United States only four months and are described as security workers for the mission This is quite a story. We now have an Iranian connection in NYC involving two men with security clearance at the UN taking pictures of known targets. Who knows how many others. Yesterday as I was walking through Times Square I happened to glance up at one of those double decker tour buses. There was a M.E. type (not that I was profiling) sitting on the top deck at the back of the open bus in the last seat, video camera in hand. The bus stopped at the light so I observed him for a couple of minutes. He was videotaping the newly-built Reuters building on his right and then turned to his left and taped the NASDAQ Building. What I found strange about it is that he was aiming his camera very high, towards the top of the buildings. Most of the sights worth filming in Times Square are at eye level or maybe a couple of stories up. As the bus passed by some of the more famous spots he didnt even tape them. Probably nothing, but it caught my attention enough to make me stop and observe him.

Did you listen to Bachelor & Alexander last night? They were pretty spooked by this story. Paul was freaked out about them taking pictures of the tunnel since it was one of Sheik Rahman's targets back in '93.

Sources told ABCNEWS that the two Iranians were seen five days ago videotaping the Brooklyn Bridge, the entrance to the tunnels into Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. Indexing.

Yes, I was following the story. A few of the guest were not even aware of the story. One of the guest from WSJ, was in almost total shock, said he was going back to work and getting on top of the story.
I am just wondering how they got this story? It sounds like someone was trying to keep a lid on this story. I do know that wabc radio has a big listening audience, someone in the know had to tip them off.
