TEHRAN, Iran - President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced the release of 15 captive British sailors and marines Wednesday in what he called an Easter gift to the British people.

Prime Minister Tony Blair, who said the Britons had been released, added that he bore “no ill will” toward the Iranian people following the 13-day standoff.
As of 9 p.m. local time in Tehran, the crew members had not arrived at the British Embassy.
Alex Pinfield, first secretary of embassy in Tehran, said it’s not clear when they will be handed over or where they are going to spend the night. He indicated the British “are still discussing the Iranian case with the Iranian Foreign Ministry.”
Asked about apparent contradictions over Blair saying the crew had been freed and British Embassy statements that they had not yet been handed over to British authorities, a Downing Street spokesman would only say “the process is under way.”
Iranian state television showed the 14 men and one woman meeting with Ahmadinejad outside the presidential palace following his announcement at a news conference that they were being freed. The crew members were seized while on patrol in the northern Persian Gulf on March 23, would leave Iran on Thursday.
At the news conference, Ahmadinejad pinned a medal on the chest of the Iranian coast guard commander who intercepted the sailors and marines, then made the dramatic announcement.

If you recognize me, remember I’m still enforcing the 3 foot rule!
Can you prove that?
Tied to the hood of a car, speeding head on into traffic, Harry Reid wouldn’t stop screaming.
“Could you be quiet for a second?” Bush was doing the best he could to avoid a head on collision as he steered the car. “I’m just trying to get your attention to explain something to you. See, you say the war is a huge waste, and yet you want to fund it for a year with a date set for certain failure. I really think the whole reason you’re doing this is for political purposes and to appease those wiener kids on the internets. You understand what I’m saying?”
As he saw more headlights racing towards him and narrowly missing, Harry Reid continued to scream.
“If you had any integrity — or balls — you’d either vote to defund the war now or get off my back. Now hold on; we’re going into a tunnel.”

Fuddy!
We need the keys (banging on security bars)!
In fact, Britain, the US & UN, fell all over each other to make sure that EVERYONE understood, that this need to be resolved diplomatically.
So Pres Yabbadabbadoo got exactly what he wants. He showed the Islamic world that we, the US and Great Britain, are paper tigers. That we have lost the will to fight for our existence as once great nations.
I'm thrilled that these soldiers will be going home. But the price that the world has paid over the past 2 weeks is going to be incalculable.
Good post.
Thanks CC for the link....
