I would be extremely surprised if that happened. However, I would like to see this challenge answered in no uncertain terms, release the sailors or ELSE

I sort of feel sorry for the Brits - Blair got them involved in Iraq/Iran without the ability to really play the game. GB was simply resting on the laurels of events that occurred long ago for different people. (Those occupying GB today are not the same people who built an empire - the genetic stock of those people died during 1914-1918).

You can even see this reputation reflected at FR; everyone assumes that GB has some sort of capability to respond. In actuality, their naval forces are no stronger than Sweden's. They are worse than a paper tiger - they are nothing. That's why it was foolish to put their people at risk; what we're seeing is the logical conclusion.

I know that comment was off the wall in a fantasy context but all I see is Iran giving us orders, we the US and Britain cannot be manipulated even if it means sacrificing lives. Yes this sounds also like a jimmy Carter monologue but it also does not exclude all out dark-ops.

A combined Delt-SAS contingent goes in Iran, assasinates Irans leaders.

Or better yet we get a modern day "Dirty Dozen" to do it.

I could just imagine MS13 loaded up with modern weapons air dropped in downtown Tehran.
