PAttis was working in Iran for a private contractor doing satellite work. He confessed (possibly forced) to spying for the CIA. Show me some evidence these guys have any suspicion of doing any other than recreating and you might have a case.

So, all Iran has to do is force these hikers to confess and we're all squared away? I think it's pretty easy to tell that in that case and in this one, the arrests and detainment were politically motivated.
