obviously, the access was granted due to successful abduction of the GB marines

Diplomats, huh?

I'm beginning to think we should send the Brits home.

This is a significant turn of events. If the Iranians detained in Iraq are freed, it seems likely that the British will be also.

From a news report on the same topic.

TEHRAN, Iran - Iran's state media reported Wednesday that an Iranian envoy will be allowed to meet five Iranians detained by U.S. forces in northern Iraq since January — a possible sign of further progress toward ending a British-Iranian standoff.

The report appeared as Britain and Iran were entering a sensitive phase in the efforts to free 15 British sailors and marines captured by the Iranians last month in disputed waters of the Persian Gulf.

A separate Iranian diplomat seized two months ago by uniformed gunmen in Iraq was released and returned Tuesday to Tehran. Iran had blamed the U.S. for the abduction, a charge American authorities denied.

“An Iranian representative is to be allowed to meet five Iranians who have been held in Iraq by U.S. forces since January...”

And they will claim to have been tortured, had their Korans flushed down the toilet, made to eat pickled pig’s feet, whatever. Can’t wait.

fyi

That’s the problem with keeping all these “detainies” around. Nothing good can come from it. We should question them aggressively... and then eliminate them.

Tehran denies the charge and says the men are diplomats.

Obviously diplomats, as they have flowers in their muzzles.
