Haleh Esfandiari is Branded as a Zionist Agent by the IR's Kayhan Newspaper
PBS: Haleh Esfandiari
Iran-American academic Haleh Esfandiari, director of the Middle East program at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington, was taken into custody Dec. 30 during a visit to Iran and interrogated for months. On Tuesday, she was arrested and sent to Tehran's Evin prison.
Former Rep. Lee Hamilton, president of the Wilson Center, and Karim Sadjadpour, head of the Iran initiative at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, talked about her case last night on PBS. You can listen to it: RealAudio MP3
She has been branded by the State-owned Newspaper, as the Agent of Zionists.
I was informed by an anonymous reader, that Mrs. Haleh Esfandiari is not an ex-Muslim. This has been apparently a lie published in Kayhan newspaper to villify her further in Iran's jihadsphere public opinion arena . Here is what 'anonymous' said:

It is not, in fact, true that Dr. Esfandiari is "an ex-muslim who converted to judaism." While it is certainly the case that her husband is Jewish, Dr. Esfandiari has never converted. This claim of Kayhan's is as spurious as the rest of its accusations; the blogosphere repeating it uncritically is not going to do her any good!

God bless her! What a situation she is in. Thanks for keeping us informed Serendip!
It does not look good for Haleh Esfandiari. It is sad. Iranian leaders are in a paranoid frenzy about spies.
Thanks Serendip.
President Bush had better save this woman or else...

Anonymous: Unfortunately, that is the nature of the blogsphere. And you're right the propganda published in Kayhan should not be treated as truth and it is not going to help her in any way to reinforce this lie. I'm glad you spoke up. I will remove that section about the post. Thanks.

We all know there is a lot of oil in that part of the world :-))
She cannot be an "ex" muslim because she never considered herself a muslim in the first place.
Of course, we all return to Allah and so will she.
We will wait and she will wait.
I hardly can.
