"British on Parade"
For those who don't follow world politics, Iran captured 15 British sailors in what the British beleived was not Iran's boundaries. The Britsih promptly sent the GPS coordinates stating that the ship was several miles from Iran's borders and that the hostages/detainees needed to be released pronto. Iran responded with their own set of coordinates, proving the British had crossed the border.
One problemo: The coordinates were not within Irani borders. The "real" coordinates were released shortly thereafter, this time within the border.
Since then the prisoners have "released letters" saying they think the US should pull out of Iraq, that they are being "sacrificed" and "admitting" guilt to trespassing on TV.
Right. Watching the videos you can tell the hostages, which is what they are at this point, think it is a joke. The latest, the first one drops in an extra word to point out that the location is the alleged one that Iran is forcing him to say on air. The second guy looks like he just got chosen to be on American Idol, couldn't be happier.
If Iran doesn't want to incur the wrath of a wrath-less UN, they better stop acting like a fourth grader. "Nu-uh" isn't appropriate come back for a middle schooler, much less a country. The fact they think anyone on earth might actually beleive the confessions or letters is a scary proposition.
These are the same guys "not" working on nuclear weapons.
