So you can understand why you can't keep them cranked up all the time.

Ok but dont you think Bush should consider cranking the public back up? Not to mention before the election in November! This situation with Iran is not a surprise to him. Bush should be on TV condemning them not to mention hammering the point home everyday that IRAN is the main supporter to the terrorists in IRAQ. we hear about it somewhat but he needs to get out there EVERYDAY IF HE HAS TO and put a face to the people killing our troops with roadside bombs. The american people will respond. They dont like punk terrorists killing our soldiers. Like it or not Bush is the only one that can rally support for this endevour. I think americans like Bush deep down no matter what the Dems and MSM say. He just needs to get back out there.

He had to give the SAS and Delta teams in iran time to locate the hostages, then log-in a strike plan, then bolt down the internal terrorist cells, etc etc. Blair is clearly going to war.

The FReepers who spend their time playing Halo on the Xbox all day think the Brit commandos can just magically go in and blast them.

I kinda wish all the Blair bashers on these threads would give this a little time to play out. If Blair doesn't take action within the next few days then bash away but he has to play the diplomatic card first.

I agree - if at all possible use words to resolve a conflict. However, the sailors have been missing since Friday (I believe) so the time when Iran could reasonably have declared the whole thing to be a misunderstanding has probably passed. I don't think Iran has any intention of giving them back for awhile, because they don't think Britain will do anything.

I don't have an XBOX, but I know the special forces are already there.

Next few days will be the key. If Britain doesn't do anything by then you can look for the appeasement scenario.

Hello again LBT...

I'm really worried about our little pal baubau, he hasn't even said a word since roughly 24 hours ago, do you think he got caught in another earthquake? A tornado maybe? Knocked over a bottle of 'Acme Instant Hurricane Pills' from Wiley's Pharmacy?

What a shame that such a superior intellect walked right off the edge of the map like that. ;)

Howdy MKJ. LOL you may be right.

I noticed that he has not addressed of our questions. Possibly he has been busy studying his disinformation handbook. "How to be a Web Jihadi 101" told him that when you get trapped intellectually by those stupid infidels the best course of action is to run away. (For those interested in troll hunting you can read about baubau starting at Zeppo's post #215 on this thread.)

He has taken his disinformation campaign to another thread I see.

All the best.
