More on the British sailors
Okay, I know the Sun is a tabloid, and I know Faye Turney got paid to tell her story, but this is despicable:
Earlier it was revealed staff from the Iranian embassy in London phoned Faye’s mother-in-law to try to coax her to Tehran.
They traced Sue Turney, 60, by calling every Turney in her local phone book.
Faye said: “They told her if she went to Tehran it may help to secure my release.” The calls stopped after Foreign Office protests.
Un. be. lievable.
And yet, I believe it.
Gee, that fabled Muslim generosity never seems to be around except in words, does it?

The British believe in negotiating their enemies to death.
Remember Terry Waite? In 1987, he tried to negotiate for the release of hostages held in Lebanon. The terrorists took him prisoner and held him for years in solitary confinement as their response.
And even after this, the guy still volunteers to negotiate with terrorists.
Some people will never learn.
