The problem with that is that it would start a war. A war in Iran would completely destablize Afghanistan. Also, the British are withdrawing troops because of public sentiment. The British Parliament would not allow for it. And what business is it of the United States? I wasn't aware any US sailors had been captured. Mind your own business.

no, I don't agree.
The servicemen will be returned soon enouugh by diplomacy, most likely by the end of next week - so what IS the point of all these questions?
And I'd just like to ask you, if Britain was at war with Iran, would you be signing up to help?
Thought not!
It's funny how many people who know absolutely nothing about war or international relations all want to start a war ...

I remember last month, the Swiss army accidentally wandered in to little Lichtenstein. The scalding diplomatic response of the tiny nation,"Oh, no harm done.".
I don't know if we need to pull out the guns yet, but yes we should be ready.

If Iranian troops were caught in US territorial waters, they would be locked up and detained. No questions asked.
So, if British troops were in Iranian waters, Iran is more than within its rights to demand an apology before releasing them.

Not yet, our jets are still practicing. As soon as they are ready we will light those towel heads up. It will give us more military bases over there. I believe Iran is one of the last countries that we don't have men stationed. As soon as we do, things will start to stabilize

Yeah, if you want to start WW3. China and Russia have warned us against taking military action against Iran, as they get a lot of their oil from them.

War never solves a problem, it always puts off a solution for a much longer time.

This is GB's problem. We can join in if they asked us. For now, diplomacy is the best course of action.
