Would that Fox News were only as fresh as the Daily Mail.

What a great combo of right thinking, "news of the wierd," in-depth historical context articles...and as required...boobs!

Seriously though, DM is like the "National Enquirer" edited and expanded by the O.E.D. folks. I luv it.

I think that they should. British marines entered Iranian waters, we acknowledge this before the world.

Once released they can clarify and state that they did enter Iranian waters, AFTER being kidnapped by the Iranians. They can punctuate it by sinking a few Iranian vessels and sink any Iranian Naval vessel that comes anywhere near the Iraqi side of the line.

smoking a couple dozen Iranian military targets would probably put an end to this kind of '3rd-world-hostage-taking-terrorism' once and for all...

It worked with Quaddaffi didn't it. Him and his terrorists and his Gulf of Sidra BS. A few F-111's as I recall, was all it took...Taking out a string of Iranian coastal missile sites and gun emplacements would serve a couple of purposes right about now

I would gladly pay $10 a gallon for 5 years to see Ahmadinejad locked behind bars for the rest of his life.

That was when we weren't a strong enough superpower to defeat North Korea and China together. We had to give in. It's what happens when you let democrats destroy your military.

I agree. Now we see what Tony and his New Labor cronies are made of.

Of course, once he does this, then the next demand comes.

Does anyone know what assets the Brits have available to take on Iraq? I think they are still in Afghanistan and Iraq. Must be using up a lot of their military too.
