Sean and the hikers

SEAN and THE HIKERS’ STORY:

I have a very good feeling that if Sean were physically here to celebrate his 32ND Birthday that he would be extremely interested in trying to make sure The Three Hikers in Iran were released immediately.

What's really strange about this story is that the families have put together a website and they have asked for donations and they have asked for people to sign a petition.

I don't know how the donations are going but only 11,000 plus have signed the petition.

HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE WHEN 2 MILLION PEOPLE FOLLOW MILEY CYRUS ON TWEETER?

HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE WHEN 21 MILLION PEOPLE WATCH AMERICAN IDOL?

THOSE THREE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HELD CAPTIVE FOR TEN MONTHS AND ONLY 11,000 PEOPLE HAVE SIGNED THE PETITION FOR THEIR RELEASE!!!!!!!!!

I HOPE PRESIDENT OBAMA AND HIS FAMILY ARE HAVING A NICE VACATION IN NORTH CAROLINA THIS WEEKEND WHILE THOSE THREE YOUNG ADULTS ARE BEING HELD CAPTIVE BY A COUNTRY THAT WE DON'T SEEM TO LIKE AND WHO FOR SURE, DOES NOT LIKE US.

Simply imagine for one minute that Sean Maxilmilian McAlevey was being held captive in Iran because he was on an adventure of a lifetime with two of his friends.

Would you sign a petition for his release?

Let's also imagine for a second that the three hikers are spys. Even if they were, and they apparently are not, then we should have traded for them by now. We must have some questionable Iranian detainees in some American facility.

Let's consider that Sean was working for the CIA and he was being held captive in Iran.

Would you sign a petition for his release?

I think I can safely say that yes you would sign a petition. So in this case I'm asking you to read the following information on the hikers and regard them as personal friends and sign the petition, and tell everyone you know to sign the petition. And then write an e-mail to your Congressman and your State Senator and the President of the United States.

I THINK IT WOULD BE A GREAT BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR SEAN

FROM THEIR WEBSITE

Shane Bauer, Sarah Shourd and Josh Fattal have been detained in Iran since July 31, 2009, when news reports say they accidentally crossed an unmarked border during a hiking trip in the mountains of Iraqi Kurdistan. They were in a peaceful region of Iraq that is increasingly popular with Western tourists.

The three young Americans, all graduates of the University of California at Berkeley, are being held in Evin Prison in Tehran. No charge against them has been presented in a court of law and they have only be able to contact their families once.

Shane, Josh and Sarah care greatly about the world in which we live. They admire and respect different cultures and religions and share a love of travel that has taken them to many countries. That is why they went to Kurdistan, not because they wanted to enter Iran.

We hope the Iranian authorities understand that if Shane, Sarah and Josh were in Iranian territory there is just one reason: because they made a regrettable mistake and got lost. Please let them return home as soon as possible.

yeah......like now!

Happy Birthday Sean.
