That was on FNS (Fox) just now. However, I just found this at Sky News and it says she wrote that Britain should withdraw from Iraq:

FoxNews is reporting Faye Turney calls for removal of US troops from Iraq in new letter...
Obviously she is being forced to write these things, of which she can completely deny if she gets released.
Because of this, I'm starting to get the feeling that Iran has no intentions of releasing these poor hostages alive.
I couldn't do a damn thing in Tehran without authority to do so...
If you asked me, that is worse than getting panties put on your head.
Funny, I haven't heard the left decry the act or label it as torture. Anyone know if any groups have protested her being forced to wear the towel?
And on sky it was clearly stated that the 15 were in Iraq, not Iran. Now Iran calls for US troops to leave Iraq?
The Senate withdrawal date is the least of our worries now.
Interesting poll on Sky News at this time. A large majority of those voting say "No to saying, We are sorry to Iran to get the prisoners back!"
Should we say sorry to get our sailors back ?
Yes 22.35% (2,100 votes)
No 77.64% (7,295 votes)
Total: 9,395
Expires: 12 Apr 2007
I've been out. What does the new footage show?
Indeed. Let the bombing begin.
As long as our congress shows weakness, this sort of thing will continue.

If you haven't seen this yet:
A campaign by active-duty troops asking Congress to drop plans for a withdrawal from Iraq. Lt. Jason Nichols, a 33-year-old naval projects officer who has been in Baghdad since mid-January, said the goal is to keep lawmakers focused on letting the military finish its mission in Iraq, and not prematurely declare failure

An Islamofascist wanna be Serial Killer is shown with signs that they carried in recent protests in Iran.
When you mark a waypoint in a Garmin GPS, that is the icon you get. You can name the location in the flag, and give it a symbol, like a church, etc.
The other thing you can do with these is type in a grid coordinate and mark that as a waypoint. If this is an Iranian holding it, than that is what I would assume they have done, to counter the Brits claims.
Thanks; I'm going to view it now.
Here is another link that is of some interest as it is not an Iranian PR release.

Fifteen uniformed sailors are taken hostage by a country that it is not at war with. The abduction obviously did not take place in the aggressor's waters. The captives have been interrogated. the captives have also been paraded on television.
All these things go against the Geneva Conventions.
Where's the outrage?
I guess only the USA is obligated to operate under these rules.
Thank you for the explanation. And yes, that is an Iranian holding it. I captured the image from the latest video.
