A Gift for Easter

Wow, what a swell guy that Ahmadinejad is, Christian observance to boot. The press will be falling over themselves to praise the great benevolent leader of Iran.

Check out the guy on the right, he's my "man of year".



British navy personnel, seized by Iran, wave to the media after their meeting with the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, at the presidential palace in Tehran, Iran, Wednesday, April 4, 2007. Ahmadinejad announced that his government would release the 15 detained British sailors and marines Wednesday as an Easter season gift to the British people.

However, he will be re-gifting the Zodiacs to the Iranian Navy.

Well, if Rosie said it, then it must be true.

Never mind all that stuff, what i want to know is how the h.ll did they get captured in the first place???? Some stupid ass must have been asleep.

They just dont learn do they.

I am not angry about this no honest, I am bl..dy furious. The navy has not yet seen fit to tell the British public how and or why they allowed this situation to happen.

Like I said, they just dont learn.


Twenty five years since the Falklands war. I wonder how many ships the navy has down there protecting the islands?
 

God Bless America.

Re: A Gift for Easter

I understand Tony Blair was falling over himself praising Iranian President "Imadamnutjob" for his "generosity." Disgusting.

Re: A Gift for Easter

This is total hearsay, but I heard that part of the release agreement was that the hostages were not permitted to speak to the press when they returned home. If that's true I am ashamed of British government. To allow the Iranians to dictate the lives of free people post captivity is absolutely insane!

Like I said, I heard that second hand so I don't know if it's true.

Well, that's the $10,000 question, isn't it?

The answer lies in whether they were in Iraqi waters or Iranian waters.
