British PM Tony Blair was just shown on Fox stating that his government considers Iran's act of war to be "quite serious." He assured the public that Britian is working the problem.
I find it horrific that the CO of HMS Cornwall was unable to defend his men because he first had to call London for permission. This is precisely what he can expect with the US military under the Dems' Congress per their vote last week on Iraq.

Oh, God no! Not "harsh language"!!

The CO of HMS Cromwell may not have known where the new Iranian submarine was. If this was the case, not going after the hostages was a prudent move.
NI don't know how long it takes to drive a few attack subs there, but I wouldn't want to be on any Iranian naval vessels at this time.

And I am sure the West will use even HARSHER language when these sailors are beheaded on TV.

That "harsh language" is going to whip that little Ahannutjob right into line.
Be a tiger Tony, grrrrrrr!

Far from harsh and the notion of Blair treating this as an act of war is way off what he said. He said he hopes for a diplomatic solution within a few days. Just like the last time it happened.

Hey,hey, ho, ho harsh language has got to go.
Just thinking up signs for the left for their anti-harsh language protests.

Oh no! Not harsh language!
What next? Offensive looks? Empty threats? A meeting of the UN Security Council. But I repeat myself.

Well, I believe Tony Blair should apologized for using such harsh language.
