End Of The Drama ?
The theocracy in Tehran seems to think that it has milked the capture of the British Marines/sailors sufficiently.
No doubt the spectacle of that British officer admitting culpability for being in Iranian territorial waters played very well with the Iranian domestic audience, and further enhanced the Iranian leaderships’ “anti-imperialist” credentials.
Had this drama continued on, I was about to suggest a radical solution: a prisoner swap.
But a swap with the difference, in the vogue of contemporary “anti-imperialism” I was about to suggest that George Galloway be exchanged for the captured service personnel.
Sadly that is not on the cards now. Shame, though.
