Iran has detained five Britons

LOL Iran is baiting a war.

Yea marine you think the US and UK will just roll into Iran and do what they did to Saddam? This is going to be one more to many if it happens for the US.
 
Bit of an overreaction here.

If an Iranian yacht strayed into British waters the same thing would happen, and let's be honest, it's really dumb to ' stray' into Iranian waters. Anyone with a modicum of common sense would give the area a very wide berth.
 
Good luck with that. Iran has one of the largest armies in the Middle East.

I guess the Brits got what was coming to them. How many Iranians have been detained in America?

Iraq once had one of the largest armies in the world as well. Lasted all of 2 weeks, I think.

No. This time they should wait for them test their first nuke, then obliterate them. Over in half and hour.

In fact the CIA should pose as Russians or Chinese and sell them one. Get it over with.

Five British sailors held in Iran have been released, according to Iranian state radio.


The Fars news agency said the crew's entry into Iranian waters was a "mistake".
"The five Britishers who had illegally entered with their vessel into the territorial waters of the Islamic Republic of Iran and who were arrested near the Siri island have been freed hours ago," Fars news agency quoted the statement as saying.
The Guards said the five sailors were interrogated and "after investigation it became evident that their illegal entry was a mistake."
"So they were freed after taking the needed written commitments."
