The Brit hostages are eating. At least that is what the photo of Faye Turney and a couple of her fellow seamen shows. Pity that the British government stands accused of bad behavior, thus compounding the matter. Alireza Afshar, Iranian military commander, is refusing to release Faye Turney who is the alleged author of a letter declaring her gratitude for good treatment. Tony Blair took the case to the United Nations but was only able to get agreement from the Security Council on a press statement. Pity that. Now Britain is faced with the prospect of having to pen a strongly worded presidential statement to be read into the minutes. Kudos to Tony Blair for deciding that there will be no pro quid pro.
I was accused several decades ago of irrationality when my response to the seizing of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran was something along the lines of "bomb the 6u3kers." Guess what. I am back to that same irrationality. Furthermore, any liberal American fans of Iranian President Ahmadineshad and the "niceness" he portrayed in his internet blog might do us all a favor by offering to take the place of one of the Brits being held hostage.
