Dianavan..you are as easily if not more easily conned than the next person. Do you really believe all you have written on this thread in your 'stand alone' views? We are fed information from various sources and yours is only one....whose source is correct is a matter of conjecture but you are so obviously always right we cannot present an adequate argument against your fine words.
Not sure if it has been fed back to you yet but on UK TV, the picture being painted is of the 'Hostages' from our Navy/marines were mostly kept in solitary confinement....they were blindfolded and guns were cocked behind them..making them believe they were going to be shot...they had no other choice but to go along with the TV interviews and the supposed 'fun time' they were having which was being presented to the press. They knew they were in Iraqui waters not Iranian but under duresse had to admit to it and apologise on TV
Iran has certainly made a coup of some sort....with you anyway!!
Blair made all the right decisions! They paid off!
