Looks like Ahmadinejad won't show after all? This is an obvious cover story.

I wonder Ahmadangnutjob knew about the plan to take those British personnel hostage?
Or, assuming he did, if this means the Iranians have changed tactics?

I would be shocked if the State Department refused a visa for Ahmadinejad -- now, refusing visas for members of his entourage, I can see, depending on what kind of thugs he's keeping close to himself these days...

Mr Ahmadinejad,
Let the fifteen British military personnel seized by Iranian Rev Guards in non-Iranian territorial waters go - maybe we'll talk about a visa.

Why not move the UN to Tehran? That way, this knucklehead could rant and rave in front of the Security Council whenever he liked.

This is going to be a very complicated story today. The US agreed to the visa, it was announced earlier today that he would be coming. Then the report of the taking of the British soldiers appeared. Now they are saying the visa was refused.

Hmph, snort. Read on another thread that American military were also seized by Iran.

That was the earliest report that I saw. Subsequent reports have limited it to British sailors.

They've heard that there's a standing warrant for his arrest for participating in kidnapping and holding hostage the American diplomats from our embassy back in the 70s. That is an act of war and voids any diplomatic immunity.

I think in a perfect world you give him a visa.... meet him at the airport... and then give him a ride to Gitmo and move on with the business of getting rid of terrorism and terrorists.

I should just HOPE there are obstacles to issuing him a visa.

Maybe we should allow him in - and then have a special forces team seize him when he steps off of the plane. It should take at least 444 days to negotiate his freedom.

Dear Mr. Ahmanutjob:
Your visa has been approvd and is currently in transit to you via international mail. Please pay no attention to the strange white powder inside the envelope.
Warm regards

I agree that there is a connection between the taking of the British personnel and Ahmadinejad's sudden announcement that he can't go to the US, whether or not we actually refused the visa. But what exactly would his objective be? Just to continue with provocations for the heck of it?
I can't believe the British sailors were seized without his knowledge or approval, so there must be some plan here. (It's just a little hard for rational minds to determine what it is, I suspect.)

The buck stops in the WH.
