"What does a guy have to do to start a war around here?"
It's strikingly odd that Iran is baiting the UK/U.S. to attack while wartime leaders Blair and Bush are still in Office.
Clearly the smart play by Iran would be to wait out Bush/Blair, wait until they have nukes in hand, and to *then* puff out their chests.
It makes no sense that Iran is being so provocative prior to having a nuke, much less while Bush/Blair have less than 2 years remaining in Office.
Very odd.
It's a effing disgrace that we refuse to do anything about Iran.
The Brits need to destroy every Iranian naval base by morning.

If this report is correct then its proof that our government will not respond to Iran under ANY circumstances. It's obvious that our policy is to allow Iran to attack anyone they want with total impunity in a consequence free environment. President Bush should be publically castigated for this.
And the GOP leadership wonders why they lost the last election. Imbeciles.
When all hell eventually breaks out in this country (and it will) do NOT rely on the government to protect you.
Islam holds the British hostages. It has nothing to fear. Its tentacles are self evident. They leisurely open more and more command and control centers on British and U.S. soil, and the brake on American action comes automatically from America's domestic enemies.
The Brits are now justified to declare war on Iran and take out their nukes.
Iran could invade the U.S. and the Lib/ Jihad Firster alliance would still defend the Mullahs.
