How is it that the world scrutinzed the US over handling of the Abu Grahib incident yet refuses to condemn Iran for a much more grevious incident with the British marines.
Democrats called for Rumsfeld's head when he did not authorize or approve of the actions of a few rogue(since then convicted) American soldiers yet the democrats are strangely silent on the behavior of Iran. The president of Iran was directly involved with the situation in which these marines were tortured, led to believe they were being executed, stripped, bound, etc.....

All of this was done illegally by the Iranian government.

Could it be that Pelosi was too busy courting the Syrians(our national enemy) to worry about our own allies in harm's way.

What a disgraceful bunch of self serving demoncats congressmen we have. They care more for our enemies than our own country and our own allies.

Pelosi should be tried for treason for making backroom deals with our enemy. Culture of corruption?

I'm a Democrat and I'm outraged. Displaying captured people on TV and mock executions are a direct violation of the Geneva conventions.

Forcing the female sailor to wear a headscarf makes me think we need to kill a few Iranian leaders to educate the rest of them.

I predict that the West will eventually have to do to the Islamic world what we did to Germany and Japan to get them to behave.

American soldiers or not, they are our allies. As far as I'm concerned, they may as well have been American soldiers.
I have a few different answers for you (two out of many possible ones):
Political correctness
Fear

Political correctness is killing us from the inside out. Saying that an Islamic nation is threatening would be, oh so offensive.

Fear, because Iran is dangerous. I could go on for days, and I've already mentioned this a million times...Twelth Imam, total Islamic State, etc. They are religous zealots. Combine that with a charming leader and a few nukes, and you have yourself WWIII.
Their president comes across as intelligent and agreeable when he's being interviewed by West controlled media. He does not, however, come across as not liking the West in any way when talking to his own people.

Let's don't forget an all important comment by Army Personnel on those ' Intelligence ' types following the debacle at Abu Gharib:

" They poison the air. "

There's plenty guilty parties but the most guilty should be identified.

No one has taken into consideration that the actions of those types and the criminal guards at the prison directly precipitated the rash of executions by throat slashing of a number of people.

The above are a direct link to what poisons life directly in any country at the present. So called Political Police figures prominently in this.

I think Iran was rather isolated by this action of theirs; only the Democrats don't seem concerned...
If we keep being nice to Iran, do you think they will stop acting like this?

Muslims get a pass. People are afraid to criticize them for fear of violence. They have the civilized world cowed.

Um, they weren't tortured. Furthermore, they were not American soldiers. You are ridiculous.
