Those hostages should turn things around on the Iranian sand monkeys. First they should beat each others faces so they can't be shown on tv. They should not eat at all and attempt to kill themselves. This all will make the Iranian acne monsters look bad as if they were the abusers. They should make as much trouble as possible so they Iranian dune fools will plead with the Brits to take them back. BTW I just fought my way off of Netkkkop. hahaha!! Lloyd Right...compound the issue with lies....great idea....you're a real piece... |

Lloyd Right...compound the issue with lies....great idea....you're a real piece... http://www.nwc.navy.mil/press/Review...r/art9-w98.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Stockdale "He was held as a prisoner of war in the Hoa Lo prison for the next seven years. Locked in leg irons in a bath stall, he was routinely tortured and beaten. When told by his captors that he was to be paraded in public, Stockdale slit his scalp with a razor to purposely disfigure himself so that his captors could not use him as propaganda. When they covered his head with a hat, Stockdale beat himself with a stool until his face was swollen beyond recognition. He told them in no uncertain terms that they would never use him. When Stockdale heard that other prisoners were dying under the torture, he slit his wrists and told them that he preferred death to submission. Little did Stockdale know that the actions of his wife, Mrs. Sybil Stockdale, had a tremendous impact on how the North Vietnamese reacted to these acts of self-mutilation in 1969. Early in her husband's captivity she organized The League of American Families of POW's and MIA's, with other wives of servicemen who were in similar circumstance. By 1968 she and her organization, which called for the President and the U.S. Congress to publicly acknowledge the mistreatment of the POW's (something that they had never done even though they had evidence of gross mistreatment), was finally getting the attention of the American press and consequently the attention of the North Vietnamese. Mrs. Stockdale personally made these demands known at The Paris Peace Talks and private comments made to her by the head of the Vietnamese delegation there indicated concern that her organization might catch the attention of the American public, something the North Vietnamese knew could turn the tide against them. The result couldn't have been more fortunate for James Stockdale at the very time he slit his wrists. The Vietnamese now understood that they had no choice but to end their program of brutal torture or else they would be exposed internationally for their gross acts of cruelty, something that would completely derail their propaganda program which had so successfully convinced the American press and public that the prisoners were well treated." |
