Does this whole Iran situation with the UK sailors not make anyone else furious? Apparently the UK sailors were not even in Iranian territory when they were arrested (though obviously Iran disputes that). Then Iran shows the detainees on national TV. Holy crap, how pompous and inappropriate is that? It's pretty obvious that Iran is looking for confrontation (though not war); they are attempting to show the world their power through this whole mess, that they are a force to reckon with. In the end, I'm sure it won't warm up existing relations with Europe and Iran, which is stupid for Iran, since they are so economically tied to Europe.

what would you say if i told you i think it's a subversive plot by the british to distance iran from the rest of europe, to isolate the ayahtollah (or however you spell it) in preparation for another war?
