British sailors and marines held for nearly two weeks in Iran were blindfolded, bound and threatened with prison if they did not say they had strayed into Iranian waters, a Royal Navy lieutenant who was among the capitives said Friday.

This is to all those people who said Britain and the US "sacrificed" these soldiers.

Jeb...much worse has been done to captured American soldiers and captured British soldiers then that. I would link to videos of the beheadings but really there is no reason to. We know it happened and we don't need to see it happen.
Also, the picture you linked to does not happen to all that the US captures...not even to a fraction. So stop trying to use the minority to show a majority. That is typical Liberal spin you are using.

Pointless to post that.
Some of us knew that's what would happen when we first heard about it.
Some won't believe that's true no matter what you do. Realize that these are the same people that are capable of simultaneously believing that George Bush is an utter moron, and that he also planned and executed 9/11 and manages to keep it secret.

Whom ever is saying we "sacrificed" these people are IDIOTS! You need to understand the metality of these pygmy morons the Iranians. they held these men and women and gave them back as a "gift" for easter. This is not the United States I grew up to love, and its not the Great Britain I once knew. If Ronald Regan and Margret Thatcher were still in power we would have about 100,000 dead Iranians by now and we'd be asking who's next!
Its DIGUSTING to think that people of this country are screaming tolerance and justice for people whom are not citizens of this nation. The Constitution does not say the world has the same rights as Americans. You ask what do I have to say now....MAKE AMERICA STRONG AGAIN AS IT ONCE WAS!!! We should not take any bullcrap from any piss-ant country and we should flex our arms, strike hard and fast and let the world know we are back..
God Bless America
(except the enlightend liberals who are going to either get us all killed or allow us to be taken over)
AND WE ARENT HOLDING POW'S WE ARE HOLDING ANIMALS WHO KILL AT RANDOM!!! GO LIVE THERE!!

Does anyone else smell that??
Thats right... It's victory baby.
They werent in Iranian water "surprise" they said everything because they were being interogated, threatened with Iranian imprisonment (which is basicly death once they get in their prison), and they take back all the things they said about the US and how they treat captives.

Now you know how those fun loving Iranians love to play around. Don't you know that they blindfolded the prisoners so that the sun wouldn't hurt their eyes, and they didn't "isolate" the prisoners...they were giving them a calm, quiet, peaceful environment to relax in.

The left wing nuts who believed this stuff to begin with will never change their minds. They hate America and think it is the source of all evil in the world. They really need to look in the mirror.

sounds almost as bad as a secret rendition for an innocent civilian to Egypt for a couple years of solitary/torture. They looked like they had it almost as bad as the Abu-Graib pics. Nearly as bad as 4 yrs in Gitmo coming out confessing to everything except killing JFK.

I don't know anything about "sacrificing" military personel, but to the question "What do you all have to say now?", my answer would be....I'm glad they've made it home?

i guess we had better be careful of how we treat the p.o.w.'s we hold.
obviously the way we treat them will impact how our own guys are treated...
