AMERICA THINKS THE BRITS ARE SOFT
The Americans think the Brits are being too soft with Iran, most of the politicians that I have seen on TV here are all saying the same thing - "Blair is not tough enough", I agree but then what can you expect from the biggest Dhimmi of them all namely Mr Blair.
The footage of the British female hostage and what she said is seen as "staged" and that she was pressurized into making those statements.
What I find amazing is this, do you remember the Somalians that were captured entering Kenya and how British diplomats traveled long distances to get them and then arranged RAF transport to fly these terrorists back to the UK, well as of yet I have not seen any such positive actions from the Foreign Office to get our troops back to safety, have you?
No doubt there will be on-going diplomatic contact between Iran and the UK regarding this kidnapping, but when I watched Tony Blair on TV this morning and listened to his statement I must admit I was not filled with confidence.
Once again the UK Government is rolling over to a bunch of Camel jockeys, when are they going to get some intestinal fortitude and tell these stone age freaks to release our people or there will be direct assertive action of the unpleasant variety.

It should have never got this far.
One warning shot across the bows would probably have stopped them in their tracks. If it hadnt, they should have been sent to the 72 virgins (and the 28 young boys)

Absolutely! As I understand it, there was a Big Bad Frigate standing nearby. I would have loved it if the Revolutionary Guards little boat had been sunk, the fellows taken aboard, and the information they had squeezed out of them.
Oh, and folks, don't be TOO harsh on Blair; after all, he was tutored by Carter.

Now Mr Blair is really going for it, he is going to speak to the UN, perhaps they will refer him to the UN Human Rights committee who will not do anything as it does not involve Israel.

Britain is no less soft than the USA: The problem is the fact that the wrong people are running the war in both countries. It's time for REVOLUTION!

Yup. And it seems to me that the "natives are [growing] truly restless."
Even though the Declaration of Independence was not our first governing document (that was the Constitution), it had some good advice to those of us who came after: "...all Men are created equal...endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights...That to secure the Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed..."
Now, here comes the GOOD part: "...whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government..."
Seems to me that we're just about at that point. Alter or abolish... Hmmmm. Wonder what it will be!

I know a former Royal Marine Commando who is furious with TB's wussey inaction. He says that 32 Royal Marines had to be ORDERED to surrender when facing the Argentina army on the Falklands. (Not to mention the 3 that decided to take on the Argentinian navy with a Charlie G) Makes you wonder what orders these guys had & why didn't they make a run for it?? If the Iranians had opened fired, in Iraqi waters, the Captain of the Cornwall would have had to come to their defense. Sounds like the squaddies were told to surrender. OR is it because we didn't have to be "politically correct" when it involved Argentinians?

Imperator from Group910 has made his personal protest outside the Iranian Embassy today. Is anyone free to join him and us over the weekend?

Why do people insist on using this situation for gloating? Sure the US might be less hesitant to press the trigger than Britain in our day, and my own country launched a full-scale war after two soldiers were kidnapped, but willingness to use arms isn't a mark of being tougher.
Blair's hesitance to use arms is a symptom of the same sort as Bush's reluctance to do the right things in Iraq and Olmert's acceptance of a UN-brokered ceasefire in Lebanon. In all three cases, whatever the degree of readiness to take up arms, the leaders lost the battle by caving in to world opinion. Olmert could have won in Lebanon had he not worried too much about the outrage over enemy civilian victims (which were, invariably, human shields put in the line of fire by Hizbullah); Bush could have won long ago in Iraq had he taken steps to turn it into a Christian country, to de-Islamify it (instead, he preferred the "We're not at war with Islam" shtick); and Blair is far too heeding of the world's antiwar sentiment.
It's not about military superiority--we're still militarily superior to the Islamic enemy, thank G-d. It's about will, or the lack thereof. This war cannot be won except by acts of cultural imperialism; the Left-induced fear of such acts means we're handing the Muslims their victories on a silver platter. Look at us all: Britain, the USA, Israel, India, Thailand--it's the same everywhere. This is a time to commiserate and to push together against what's obstructing us all.

"Look at us all"
ZionistYounger, you are right. We're all caught up in the PC tentacles of Our Respective Leaders. Seems to me that the Israeli military had a brilliant plan, but Olmert cut them off at the knees. No luck on those kidnapped soldiers yet, eh?
And look at what Carter did when the savages invaded U.S. territory when they crawled over the embassy walls like bugs in Tehran, and held our embassy personnel prisoner.
Since that new general in Thailand is a Muslim, I'm not too surprised at what's going on there.
We truly must push together. It's TIME! Fortunately, I have a little demonstration to go to in front of our local CAIR office this Saturday. Little by little, people like us are beginning to come out of the woodwork and show Our Leaders the level of our displeasure with them.
It's a beginning; it gets the ball rolling.

A protest is organized for Saturday at 3pm outside the Iranian Embassy. It will be in Kensington Rd (S side) 200 yards east of the Junction with Prince's Gate - that's as near the Embassy as you are allowed to go to protest.

ZionistYoungster, people like me were supporting Israel for her actions, we were annoyed that your current Government is as bad as ours and acted as ours is doing now. I hope your people tell the Arab League where to stick their quite open threat of war.

Ethiopian Evangelist Beaten to Death by Militant Muslims: Militant Islamists Drag Christian Evangelist into Mosque and Beat Him to Death
WASHINGTON, Mar. 29 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Washington-DC based human rights group, International Christian Concern (ICC) has just learned that an Ethiopian evangelist named Tedase was beaten to death by militant Muslims on Monday, March 26th, as he and two young women were on a street evangelism assignment in Jimma, Ethiopia. This marks the second time in six months that Christians residing in Southeast Ethiopia have been attacked and killed by extremist (Wahabbi) Muslims.
On Monday afternoon Tedase and two female coworkers were conducting street evangelism on Merkato Street in Jimma, Southern Ethiopia. Merkato Street runs by a Wahabbi Mosque. As the team was walking by the Mosque, a group of Muslims exited the Mosque and began to run after them to confront them. Tedase's female coworkers ran away from the mob but Tedase continued on. The Muslims caught up with Tedase, pulled him into the mosque, and savagely beat him to death. Sources from Jimma reported that Tedase was beaten with a calculated intention to kill him. This was no accident or case of mob frenzy getting out of control. His body was later taken to the hospital for an autopsy and he was buried Tuesday, March 27.

This is just the tip of the iceberg.
Can anyone imagine Christians doing such a thing - dragging a person into a church and beating him to death. No way. No Christian or Christians would ever allow this. Besides a church is a place of refuge. A vicar would take the cross and given his life to protect anyone threatened with such a barbarity in church.
Even lapsed Christians would have that something in them, that would prevent them from even having such a thought as dragging a person into a church to beat him to death.
Yet Muslims think nothing of it, for in their eyes this is a completely normal thing to do. The Imam of the mosque could have put a stop to this murder but didnt, as he himself sees nothing wrong with it

I agree with all you say. Afet defeating the forces of Iraq, we should have imposed our ways on them with force, ie Christianise the population by inducements, penalties, txation(Jizya) etc. After all this is what Muslms will do if they ever succeed in defeating Isreal and occupying it.
Olmet, Bush and Blair have yet to wake up to the reality that Islam is wel and truly the most evil ideology to inflict humanity. It is worse then Stalinism and Nazism combined as it sees its idelogy as divinely ordained(More like Satanically commanded).
Israel is in the frontline against the Jihad. Take care, as Sauidi money is being used to demonise Israel just as it wasused to demonise the Serbs, that the brought the weight of Western/American military might on a people that suffered under the persecution of Muslim Turks for centuries. Despite this, they fought against the Nazis on our side, and we repayed them by taking the Muslim side.

If you need a dose of optimism check out the following radio broadcast by Sen. Fred Thompson. Go to Thusday morning, last few minutes. Thompson may run for President and he is specifically citing the case of Oriana Fallaci as to EU citizens loosing free speech rights.

I see a decent number of posts at the Telegraph">http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml;jsessionid=CQ51Q4ZP0GYCNQFIQMFCFFOAVCBQYIV0?view=BLOGDETAIL&grid=F11&blog=yourview&xml=/news/2007/03/28/ublview28.xml">Telegraph urging action (including a few of my own) but what I don't see is leadership. In both the USA and UK there is a void in terms of intellectual and political leadership. Obviously both Bush and Blair are uninspiring (to use an understatement.) But who is in the wings? I don’t see a Churchill, Reagan, or Thatcher among them. An intellectual and articulate statesman isn’t anywhere in sight. I’m confident the right leader could rally the population and shame the opposition.
