Well if it's any consolation, those types of depots in those kinds of regimes usually end up on the sharp end of their own tyranny by someone much closer to home who wants to be the cockerel crowing on the dunghill.

I would just like to quote a comment that I saw in the Guardian today.

quote:

Sounds like Ahmadinejad has got himself some good Games Theeory advisors. Hm. Maybe some ex-RAND corporation guys started freelancing when the neocons went all faith-based? Just remember, children; logic beats faith nine times out of ten.

You should be greatful that they're not trying to get you to sleep with them. How many times do you have to explain you're straight to a [gay] dude?

haha... I was once approached by a gay guy. In a Starbucks, no less. Of course, as soon as I realized what was going on, I politely excused myself and ran away... LOL.

However, I remember being struck by how confident and smooth the approach was. I thought to myself, if the average straight guy had even half the confidence and charisma of this gay guy when approaching girls, then he would be a fucking hero. I mean, here was a guy who could get a pretty violent reaction from most people, and yet exuding the confidence that most straight guys can never project with girls. Truly, there is some stuff that we straight guys can learn from gays.

The sooner out sailors are back the better and this situation can be brushed underneath the carpet. Regardless of Blair and Bush being best mates and the mess in Iraq. These naval personnel deserve to be back on home shores and not be pawns between two nations. Iran in the whole course of this matter have acted like a load of fucking cowboys and I've lost whatever amount respect I had for them.

Don't tell me your perception of a people is based on the regime they live under.

No not at all. It's the same as people thinking my views align with Blair's cabinets policies. Not at all I didn't vote for the guy.

Originally posted by Dj O'Callaghan Well said. Still I'd fucking love to snap that little monkey Ahmadinejads neck with my bare hands.

Hmmm ... is it because Ahmadinejad is such a nice guy? I mean, he released the marines within a week. How long did it took for US to release the Iranian diplomats they illegally seized? Where's all the spotlight on US aircraft violating Iranian airspace?

Tony Blair should have been thankful when Iran decided to release the marines, instead Tony Blair decided to be an asshole and told Iran to co-operate better next time. What a dick. Iranians give in, British play it as their political victory! Not even a thanks!

I guess you didnt see Ahmadinejad's warm treatment of the British marines when he announced their quick release. Were they tortured? Not fed? Placed butt-naked in a jail cell?

All this just shows what a binch of hypocrite the U.S. and the British government are. They will continue to blame Iran for all their problems in the region and will put more sanctions on them.
Honestly I ve never seen a bunch of captured sodiers get treatments like this anywhere.

Iam just wondering that these marines wills say to the public once they go back home.
