More from Iran...
15 of Britain's sailors and marines are in the custody of Iran after supposedly crossing into Iranian waters.Tony Blair has brought this case to the UN, stating that he has proof that these people have been detained illegally from Iraqi waters. He will ask for the UN to condemn Iran, which will most likely mean additional sanctions and the possibility of a request to release the soldiers.
Now, I understand that Britain is trying to be delicate with this situation, but going to the UN is not the answer and they will find that out the hard way. Any action taken by the UN will be laughed at, once again, by Iran and it will not deter them in their ways.
What will happen next? Well, that is up to Britain. Will they take the matter into their own hands? Maybe make a move against Iran? If they do nothing, it will only strengthen the momentum that Ahmadinejhad has created in Iran. We are at the point where he needs to be dealt with. If Great Britain is going to do it, then you'd better believe we'd be right beside them supporting their efforts.
Maybe ground troops aren't the way to go right now, but cruise missiles and bombing missions have can be a great way to persuade Iran to knock it off. The way I see it, they aren't at the point where they could strike back with much force...yet. Maybe we should be hitting them before that day comes.
