So the British strayed into the territory of Iran, and were captured, interrogated, and placed in solitary confinement. All rules of the game. What are they crying foul for?

GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT

The British hostages were taken 1.7 nautical miles inside IRAQI wates, not Iranian.

As for rules of the game;

Being told that if they didn't admit things they would serve 6 years in jail is against the GENEVA CONVENTION.

Having weapons held to your head during questioning is AGAINST THE GENEVA CONVENTION.

Being forced to wear civilian clothes instead of uniform IS AGAINST THE GENEVA CONVENTION.

Being blindfolded, while weapons were repeatedly ****** and uncocked in hearing range, IS AGAINST GENEVA CONVENTIONS

Before spouting rubbish at least try to get some understanding of what the FACTS are

Because it was a foul thing to do to the British. The British did not stray into Iran waters. Next time Iran goes into Iraq waters, they will find out that there will be no captives, but Iran casualties.

"cry babies" is a little harsh isn't it? there is a lot at stake with Iran and the entire world right now. The British are good allies of MY country. They can play in my game any day.

The British should be upset at Iran because it was the U.S. that captured the six Iranian diplomats in Iraq not the British and when some of the diplomats were released the Iranians let them go.

And what proof do you have that they were in Iranian territory? Are you naive enough to believe anything that Iran says?

You know what, until youre in a hostage situation or become a prisoner of war please dont comment on things you wouldve done. I wouldve fought but Ive been close to suicidal lately. I've taken to skydiving, I've eaten blowfish, both of which can be deadly. Maybe I sometimes wish I werent alive anymore.

Because if it was the US in that situation we'd want sympathy from the Brits just as well.
