Exactly. That's the confirmation that he's NOT a spy. Come on, phantom - you know how that game is played as well as I do.

To say this spy is a victim of "Islam" is to ignore the entire history of espionage...
If the US found a spy for a foreign government they would be killed....no questions....
Iran should have no reason to act different when finding a US spy in their midst...
The magnetic bomb which was planted by an unknown motorcyclist under the car of Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan Behdast, a professor at Tehran's technical university, also wounded two other Iranian nationals in Seyed Khandan neighborhood in Northern Tehran.
Ahmadi Roshan, 32, was a graduate of oil industry university and a deputy director of Natanz uranium enrichment facility for commercial affairs.
No more details have been revealed about the blast.
The blast took place on the second anniversary of the martyrdom of Iranian university professor and nuclear scientist, Massoud Ali Mohammadi, who was also assassinated in a terrorist bomb attack in Tehran in January 2010.
The today bombing method was similar to the 2010 terrorist bomb attacks against the then university professor, Fereidoun Abbassi Davani - who is now the head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization - and his colleague Majid Shahriari.
hey are just as capable of trying to protect their own interests as we are

There are probabilities around and here is what is inside my mind :
1. There are pictures and videos confirming he's spy.
2. There are facts saying he was visiting his grandmother.
I think , the pictures and video's weigh more than the reasons for visiting Iran does. + When planning an espionage , pies put different layers of facts in front of the real reason.
here is my question. How comes that a US marine wanted to visit his grandmother when he knew that Iran is not in good relationship with US ? ( Iran even doesn't have a US embassy )
with respect.

Fine, the definition for "crazy" as it relates to Iran is the desire to make martyrs out of themselves.

The leaders in Iran are the only ones I know of that would use a nuke, thinking that a return nuke would "save" them.

Iran hasn't done it yet for two reasons. One, they don't have the ability....yet.
Originally posted by Deetermined
Two, they need a "just reason" for doing so and nothing has escalated to that point...yet.

They do have 1,000's of antiship missiles, so the ability to cause huge losses to "the american satan" is there.
They haven't done it because a retaliation would destroy their country, and Iranians just like everybody else want self-preservation, not death.
The U.S. is trying to escalate the conflict by all means, without any "just reasons" at all. So it's actually the U.S. who want to "martyr" them. The U.S. worldwide war-mongering, resource-grabbing and meddling in other people's internal affairs is the real threat to peace in the world.

Tell me if I'm wrong, but they just recently announced this man's death sentence, but he was arrested and has been held in custody since August 2009.
