It's crazy. You would think a boat load of Brits could fend off a boat load of Iran sailors. Seems the America's are required not to be captured. Strange too, they have the whole episode on radar and sat and know they were not in Iran waters, but the Iranian's say they confessed to being in Iraq waters. Rubber hose confessions I bet. Blair needs to pop off 15 cruise missles now, and then give them about one hour to release the crew or send in another 15 missles. Joe Problem is that GB's only allies, aside from former British colonies like Canada and OZ, is us...so once again there would be no world backing for anything like that...the prevailing sentiment from the rest of the world is "Why were you there to begin with?" so there won't be any help that way..and the UN is a joke so you know there won't be any help there. It would be nice, though, if GB would lob something at someone as an initial action so they could take the heat instead of us for a change. |
