15 british navy PERSONNEL captured

[El Blanco]

He was deffinatly in the movement, pretty low on the totem at the time, but its never be proven he was actually at the embassy.

[Abcdxxxx]

Sure as hell looks like him. There's another shot where he's holding what looks to be an Uzi, that's been posted side by side with a current shot of him, and the resemblance is uncanny.

[El Blanco]

You don't think in 30 years he tried a new haircut?

[Abcdxxxx]

You're talking about a man who hasn't changed his members only jacket once since he got into office. Strong hair roots?

[Abcdxxxx]

[Ant10708]

They do look similar but it still could easily be someone else.

[El Blanco]

Oh yeah, look who's talking. Youre willing to believe in everything the us government says to you otherwise you'd be in fear of considering yourself as anti-american if you ever accuse anyone in the government of lying. Only your narrow view would think the bush administration represents all of amrerica.

Ya, Kev, stop being such a lap dog for Bush. From day 1 all you have done is profess your love for the necons.

Jesus, Geggy, do you ever read your shit before posting it?

[Ant10708]

Geggy don't you find your views slightly biased since you already assume the united states government wants war with iran?

Washington said however there was no link between the sudden granting of consular access to five Iranians held in Iraq, and the release of 15 British naval personnel.

"There is no link whatsoever. Neither we nor the British nor anyone else, as far as I know, has made that link," State Department spokesman Tom Casey said when asked if there was a connection.

[Ant10708]

I asked you a fucking question Geggy.

Geggy only chooses to listen to everything the administration says when it happens to suit his narrow view of the world.

Geggy can't understand why the U.S. has to take a firm position stating that the two aren't linked, lest we legitimize this kind of behavior from Iran.

The released personnel have spoken about what happened in Iran:

Royal Navy personnel seized by Iran were blindfolded, bound and held in isolation during their 13 days in captivity, the crew have said.

[KevinTheOmnivore]

Sloth, thank you for pointing this out. You beat me to it...

So, GEGGY, what do you make of the sailors' claims that they were under tremendous pressure, blind folded and manipulated? Hmm?

[Courage the Cowardly Dog]

The funny part is now Iran is saying "you owe us a favor on the political spectrum, perhaps supporting our nuclear program?"

Kidnapping sailors in disputed waters and manipulating them is a HUGE favor. And I don't want any Iranian favors any time soon.
