A couple of days ago I said Britain dhould give them 24 hrs to send back the kidnapped soldiers or start the bombing.

That 24 hrs. has long passed and we see nothing has been done.

I do not believe anything will be done either and like the Jewish prisoner that is still being held by the Palsetinians, these soldiers will be held indefinitely. I wouldnt blame the other soldiers stationed there by Britain if they caugh the first commercial jet out of there and went home.

If your country places you at risk and then abandons you then why bother to continue to serve?

It sure doesn't do much for the morale of the British soldiers.

Any US Marine should be looking over their shoulder right now. Whether you surrender or defend yourself you are wrong.
We do the same thing as the Brits all the time. Throw our men into the fight and then attack them when they defend themselves, pure PC BS!

There is no evidence that the 15 have been abandoned. The only real evidence is that the action is not proceeding according to your time table.

The Brits, and their American ally, should give the Iranians an ultimatum - we want the hostages alive, or Ahmawhatshisface dead - twenty four hours, or Tehran joins the stone age.

"If your country places you at risk and then abandons you then why bother to continue to serve?"

This statement could just as easily be made about our dozens of brave warriors rotting in U.S. briggs awaiting their military courts martial for "war crimes". These are strange times we live in, Western society is no longer cohesive and rational. We are self-destructing, and if things don't turn around soon there won't be much left worth fighting for. If you look carefully, you can see the frenzied sharks circling the troubled waters of Western man, waiting to go in for the kill. The 'sharks' of Islam, socialism, secularism, paganism and globalism smell the weakness and are poised to devour us. What's really troubling though is that while we are losing faith and unity we are at the same time strengthening the circling sharks with our new-age religion of political correctness, multiculturalism and worship of self. The modern-day "trinity" of man's foolishness.
