While the story of Iran's detention of Haleh Esfandiari, director of the Middle East Program at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, has been covered extremely well by the mainstream media, I believe it appropriate that we encourage our readers to sign the petition calling for her release.

If you are interested in knowing how she is doing in prison, please read this recent interview with her husband in Foreign Policy magazine.
