Ignore the pissants. We too are in the war, but are constantly carped at by the small-minded here and other sites.

Remain the tried, true and stalwart we always have been, and remember that perfectly Americanized pseudo-latinism:

Illegitimus non carborundum.

In particular, the guy in the center in a light grey suit has one hand up and one hand conspicuously in his pocket. Don’t be surprised to find out that he tell us that it was either the middle finger or a play gun pointed at Ididotrod.

I am really looking forward to their statements, hopefully dramatized publicly for the world to see.

[greccogirl]

I agree.

[91B]

Perhaps, but the three gentlemen on the right do not look like happy campers and a brit freeper on another thread said that the Royal Marines in the group have not yet been shown on TV making statements. I think that we may find that some of them comported themselves honorably.

Bow to your Dominator !


The typical 3 steps in 2 weeks : Kidnapping - Stockholm syndrome - Conversion.
I would not be surprised, in 6 month from now, that some of the british converted to Islam. This might be the classic example what some people warn us about. In 2 weeks time laps, we saw what might take 20 years for a country. The slow Conversion of the western world to Islam. And on the end we will say : Thank you, and we will joke with our new masters, and thanking them for not cutting off our head for some benign misbehavior.

Did you take the BROWN acid? I thought that went out with the “Woodstock” generation.

If you want to help the cause, try thinking a little less lysergic...

If the U.S. released an Iranian and has allowed Iran access to the others, how is that a good thing?

Did I say it was a Good Thing? I don't think so. It is, if true, a very Bad Thing, which will lead to more hostage grabs. That sort of thing is SOP in that part of the world anyway, particularly for Persians of the Muzzie persuasion.

[dfwgator]

We need to find another country who we can use as #1 ally. This one seems to be not up to the job.

I nominate Poland.

[El Gato]

If the U.S. released an Iranian and has allowed Iran access to the others,

Apparently there is no longer much "if" about either part of that, Iranian envoy allowed to meet detainees in Iraq

As I said in the previous post, a very Bad Thing indeed.

[kinghorse]

Sounds exceedingly plausible.

All but the three on the far right have no business being a professional soldier.

That’s what Blair SHOULD have said “to the Iranian PEOPLE”—why should his tone change?? He is playing to the same crowd that Ahmadinejad is playing to, and frankly, the current leadership enjoys barely more support within Iran than Blair does in the UK. THe Iranian people will be the ones to change the Revolutionary Mullah Theocracy that governs Iran, and it IS important to keep reminding them that this is not a conflict with THEM (I firmly believe a MAJORITY of them are fed up with the idiot brinksmanship played by this nutcase showboater currently calling himself a Leader.

They did not come back with honor. Several of their party made propaganda films for the enemy. If they were tortured, that is a different matter. Anyone is breakable - ask the American POWs in North Vietnam. But it took years to break some of them. Within days, members of the British military in this photographed cooperated with the enemy (their captors) and made statements against their government.

Yeah.
No middle finger salutes either, as was so common with the Viet Nam POW photos.

That's what happens when you let women serve in frontline. A wussification of the entire unit. Woman soldier/marine/sailor is an oxymoron.

What about this frightening scenario: The population of Moscow is 10 million. 2.9 million are Muslims. The birthrate of ethnic Russians is dismal - with something like 8 out of 10 pregnancies resulting in abortions. Not so with the Muzzies. Demographers predict that within 15 to 20 years, the Russian military will be majority Muslim. The Islamists will control the Russian nuclear arsenal without firing a shot!

I believe you are all correct. The three gentlemen on the right did not appear on camera in any propaganda interview.

During the Vietnam War, there were two officers that cooperated with the Vietnamese torturers. In exchange, they receive privileges, luxuries, and the like.

Adm Denton and many other officer filed charges against them when they returned.

I highly doubt that actions will be taken against those who cooperated with the enemy (Iran). Something may be done in quiet, but I even doubt that.

What is needed, however, is more training about resistance techniques and about a code of conduct that soldiers, aircrew, sailors, and marines must follow if captured.

They got goody-bags with complimentary Members Only jackets, too.

Okay - that's creepy. You need to knock that off!

Or play the horses. :-P

Pelosi will learn a hard lesson from Syria, but she’ll never admit it publicly.

[Pub Linkser--80]

I heard a rumor that Pelosi’s trip to Syria will be written up in “The Journal of Naive Foreign Policy Blunders”. I think she’s earned a full article in that journal.

Everyone forgets it was the Belgies that flaked out, causing the Dunkerque debacle.
