Well, we'll never know, will we?

The Iranians captured those rubber dinghies as well as the people on them. They have the GPS locators, if in fact the British had them on the dinghies.

BTW, many of us do not realize, it was not the regular Navy that attacked and seized these sailors. Rather, it was the Revolutionary Guard navy that did this. So I simply do not trust any thing they may say about the situation. These hot heads need a defeat to understand they simply cannot get away with piracy.

For those who think this will start a war, I ask, when will you declare enough is enough? Perhaps the British and the USA should just leave the Middle East, as to avoid "provoking" Iran into a war? I'm no war monger (and I've served my share and then some), but unless we draw the line, these thugs will do more, not less.

Amen. If we do not start standing up to these threats and little "incidents" the big one will come as it did on 9/11/01. I, for one, do NOT want that to happen. The whole reason we started this in Afghanistan and Iraq was to take the fight TO the Terrorists, of which Iran and it's "government" is the chief "facilitator" at this juncture.
