The release only proves that the legal system there is totalitarian. Today Ms. Saberi was released, tomorrow she or another journalist can be imprisoned for life or executed. The court is a tool of the government and its rulings have nothing to do with facts or law. We do not have the tools to explore the reasons for her imprisonment, secret trial, sentencing and now release, as we were unable to fathom the trials of Stalin.
