things had "gone a little quieter"... she hoped that was "a good sign" that Iran was "thinking afresh what is the way out of this situation"

:o)

Mrs Beckett said: "I think everyone regrets that this position has arisen. What we want is a way out of it - we want it peacefully and we want it as soon as possible."

Oh. Wow. I really feel sorry for anyone who is now, or has ever been a citizen of the UK. Your country is pitiful. Worse than France at this moment.

Poor woman.

Maybe if everyone in the UK baked a pan of brownies and sent them to Iran, they could all sit down with a nice cup of tea and get this little misunderstanding straightened out.

I expect to hear soon that Carter is volunteering to advise them on the best course of action.

First of all...I saw a news segment on Fox with Ms. Beckett saying that stuff..and it just makes me shake my head.

She is playing right into Nutjob's hands...ugh

Second of all...I hope this little "crisis" will put to rest the talk in the Senate by Specter and others about how WE treat the prisoners....and how WE need to be sure and comply to the Geneva Conventions and more.

If one side is committing an act of war, why is everybody urging the UK to not start a war? That makes no sense at all! By definition and act of war is an act of war; Iran started one! UK has no choice unless the Iranians surrender the hostages.

This "we are sorry and we won't do it again" attitude by the UK will only net them more trouble down the line. Sad really.

If you want peace, you better be willing to fight for it.

Peaceful end means England you give in. Iran you rule over the big boy and spume your hate about how great you are and how the west is dancing to your tune. Peace with these people means Iran rules Iraq and Jack Murtha dances in the streets while accepting money from foreign agents and getting away with it. of course peace with Iran means Nancy pelosi will not attend her perverted war dances with nude men in San fran and she admits she is with the enemy all the time.

I am appalled by the ease with which the British command structure and political leadership abandoned, yea marooned, the sailors and marines attached to HMS Cornwall. And this after consultation with HQ. Without a shot being fired.

These people, and by that I mean the aforesaid sailors and marines, are being boo-fooed (or, in American vernacular, cornholed), by the very people who were charged with looking out for them.

Accordingly, I believe that the British powers that be should rechristen the HMS Cornwall as the HMS Cornhole. They will, of course, ignore this. As they are also ignoring their responsibility to their troops.

Yo, Britannia!!! Grow a set!!!

You pathetic effeminate weenies can have a peaceful resolution. Simply submit. You are dealing with men (albeit murderous men) not your own limp wristed kind.
