Unfortunately, I think the U.K will be at war with Iran very soon. They are leaving us no other option. May God have mercy upon them.

Hmmm couldnt happen to a nicer Iatolaha LOL

These people never paid retribution from the last two times they took hostages.

Discussing politics in a trucking forum is pretty pointless since most are horribly ill-informed.

The morons in this country driving their land barges at 80+ down the highway will sure miss them...

No, it's much more fun to listen to people here whine about the situations they create for themselves to complain about. Especially when I do not suffer from the same created messes that they seem to not be able to figure out. To be honest, if there were a way to make what I make and have a similar job, there are plenty of other places on this earth that would do nicely. I've lived in other countries and can accept the fact that there are other places without a lot of the problems we have here.

I hope that Tony Blair takes more historical advice from Maggy than from the Goober farmer

You seem like the only one here thats read the news article about it, instead of getting their 'insight' off the caption at the bottom of Fox 'News'. Thanks!
However, theres some issues about the borders in the gulf. Iraq and Iran had a treaty outlining the waters, but Saddam called that treaty void around 1985 and declared a large section Iraqi... so now some waters patrolled by us and Britain are disputed by Iran. What surprise that one day they decide to snag some sailors....

To be honest, the war should have started that day, when the ship sat there and watched their fellow soldiers be taken without doing anything it escalated things to this point, there should have been some smoking debris of the Iranians floating on the water and then worry about apologies later.

Muslims are not all immigrants... WE have plenty of generations of Muslims here who were born here.

And very few of those have any loyalty at all to the USA.
