They should have refused to wear the suits but we can’t condemn them for that. The least they could do is not act like they’re on vacation.

The Brit’s ballistic subs; Vanguard, Victorious, Vigilant and Vengeance are equipped with Trident II D5 missiles.

Dateline London, 3 Mar 2009. Just as red ink has been declared too frightening for our youth, so too have the names of our naval vessels come under review. Henceforth, Vanguard shall be Hindmost; Victorious shall be shall be Vanquished; Vigilant shall be Inattentive; and Vengance shall be Vacillate. HMS Vacillate shall be permanently assigned to the Department of State.

"It never made sense to me that Carter did not go to Capitol Hill and ask Congress for declaration of war."

It never made sense that a soporific weasel like Jimmy Carter was ever POTUS, but there he was, in the White House, pretending............

I wonder if they are aware of what happened the last time someone tried to take an embassy from Britain (Iranian Embassy in London).

Margaret Thatcher: "I don't want to deal with these people." [significant look to SAS commander]

They terminated all but one invader, who was able to sneak out amoungst the hostages.

There is no such thing as a BBC channel 4.

There is a Channel 4, but that has nothing to do with the BBC.

Just a fyi.

That’s so 70s.

Besides, the election is over. What’s their point?

Send those three guys on the right (and a few of their buddies) to sort things out.

the students then hoisted a Palestinian flag

On the British embassy? Seems a bit redundant.

I was once stoned in Iran. Wait, maybe that was in Idaho. I always get the I places mixed up, esp. when they stone me.

Before the US embassy was invaded in November, 1979, Iranian “students” had briefly occupied it. I would advise the Brits to leave town, pronto. They have been warned.

I love how the peaceful people of Palestine act when they think that they are on the receiving end of harsh treatment. They attack EVERYONE in sight.

I’ve been stoned in Idaho, too. Repeatedly. There’s lots of other funzilla activities here, too.

Iranian students attacking the British Embassy were immediately granted British Citizenship.

“We need more people willing to fight for what they believe in”, one British spokesman was quoted as saying.
