An extraordinary to demonstrate the new leadership and it's sincerity in Iran.

Mrs. Sotoudeh has made the point there are others in Iranian prisons she is worried about. Of course there are, but, this is one of the best beginnings I could have hoped for in such a short period of time for the new Iranian President. 

I choose to recognize the greatness in this and not remain skeptical of his insincerity. There is no insincerity in the fact Mrs. Sotoudeh is with her family today. That is a wonderful gesture and much appreciated. I do believe the children have a smile on their faces along with a husband elated to have his wife at home.

There is no doubt Mrs. Sotoudeh sees much work before her, but, at least now she can conduct her work and not simply hope to do it. She can be grateful for at least that. She doesn't see the sincerity in her freedom?
