American Hikers To Be Released From Iranian Jail

Ann Curry interviewed Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and he is going on record saying the two American hikers, Joshua Fattal and Shane Bauer who were arrested in 2009 and sentenced to 8 years in prison for espionage while hiking along the Iraq-Iran border, will be freed in a couple days. This is being called a humanitarian gesture on Iran's part. However in return, Ahmadinejad wants Iranians freed from American prisons.

The hikers say they crossed the border by mistake due to a soldier waving them over. What? Sounds like that soldier waved them over on purpose so they could cross the border to be arrested.
