Can't help but think what a naive thing to do than to go to IRAN thinking the Mullah's wouldn't capture you and take you hostage?

I mean please......

The U.K. foreign office even explicitly tells you not to bother.

These people are too old to be so stupid. Did anyone else think there would be any other outcome to this?

I would think they would need to have gotten a visa from Iran.

They might have travelled past a ‘sensitive’ place.

They ignored Foreign Office advice not to travel there because of their habit of engaging in ‘hostage diplomacy’.

Leave them. Don’t give the Iranians any concessions to release them.
