lol
seems tho that many vomit one party line or the other--hard to find the real news, not the 'news'..

That's a very funny tagline. Believe it or not, I once hit a 200yd sand wedge. Unfortunately, I was playing a blast shot out of a greenside bunker when I hit it.

I cannot imagine if they were U.S naval members, there would be b-52's circling with warheads of mass destruction. I understand its a power play for Iran, but i cannot believe that the british government is going to let iran dictate terms. I very seldom advocate violence as a solution to anything, but its time for the Brits to say, " Give our naval members back today, or we will be there tommorrow to take them by force"

I just do not get it.....Why do countries like Britian and the US continue to D@#$ around with countries like Iran, Iraq, Syria, NKorea, etc? We can sit in the mediterannean or Persian Gulf on huge air craft carriers and destroyers and pelt them with missles while our B-52's cirlce thousands of feet above out of RADAR reach and drop MOADS.....we could level the place in hours with out dropping the first man, why risk our men by putting men on the ground as we did in IRAQ. We could wipe these places off the map within hours, they are useless anyway (besides the oil). If we are not going to do that then lets pull out and let them blow each other up, they have been fighting in the Mid East for thousands of years do they really think we are going to change that? An enormous waste of our people and $$$$. It is ridiculous that we keep letting these little camel jockeys dictate what we are going to do! And as far as innocent people, who cares? They do not play by the rules, they got 12 yr old kids and grandmothers shooting our men in the back or walking up to a roadblock and blowing themselves to pieces, we have no clue who the enemy is, we are the only ones who play by the rules (sometimes) and we pay the biggest price....not to mention they do not want us there or our assistance....ok i am off of my soap box!!

Danzig,
I'm no fan of Iran...but regarding doing something illegal and trying to dictate terms...read this. You might be surprised who taught them.

Well the world showed them. Iran certainly wont do anything outrageous again after the strong rebuke and all the sanctions coming down. And he was shaking the "guests" hands as they left, wishing them well... what a crock o' crud.
