Iran sentences U.S. hikers to 8 years in prison

The Iranian government is now sentencing the two hikers to 8 years in prison. Two kids, whose life is in danger of being wasted for 8 years, for doing nothing but going for a hike. But then again when has the Iranian government been fair? It treats its own people horribly let alone Americans.

I communicated with Josh’s family while helping translate one of their videos for them and I found them to be so kind and genuine. This news must’ve shaken them up badly. What a sad day indeed.

Another question is whether they are being held for some sort of an exchange or a political deal with the American government?
