#3 So much for the "Stop, ...... or I'll say 'Stop' again" gambit.

'Time for the Brits "spit on (their) hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."

#6 We also need to remember that Ahmadinejad had a part in those 444 days -- captured Americans identified him as one of the hostage takers.

#7 It comes down to this: If we do nothing to defend ourselves we deserve everything that we get.

I doubt anyone is going to sit still for 444 days this time even if Her Majesty's government refuses to act. First, the traitors. Then the enemy.

#8 Can any of the BritBurgers enlighten us as to the mood over there? Is there any outrage or is it all "we brought it on ourselves"?

#10 Why the hell isn't the Iraqi govt issuing a protest to the Iranians? The Brits were protecting Iraqi lives.

If I were a Brit and the Iraqis didn't issue a formal demand for the release, I'd probably be very sympathetic to a vote to withdraw all forces.
