Kinda playing devil's advocate here but do you think that it is cool if the Iranians strip these British soldiers down, stack them in piles, waterboard them, take photos of them naked, hood them and fake electrocution?
Anyone who defended the abu ghraib scandal (and you know who you are) should be totally cool with the Iranians doing this, right?

Always out to pick a fight mrdob. I bet your the type of person to always get the last word in aren't you...?

Just curious, not sure why it needs to be a fight.
The chickens have come home to roost.

No, you are looking for a retorte.
People here are discussing the issues and your here to make a personal point and belittle a certain person's prior opinion.
- mrdobolina0
It is a valid point.
- k0na_an0k0
No. It would not be cool.
1) Britain is not at war with Iran.
2) The British soldiers were in Iraqi waters, boarding a merchant ship.
3) Iran illegally seized the British soldiers at gunpoint.
4) Iran changes their story twice to make them in the right.
5) Iran now holds 15 innocent British soldiers who have committed no crimes against Iran.
6) I could go on forever but I don't have the time.
7) You're comparing Apples to Oranges.
8) I agree with the guys who posted after you did. They are correct.
9) Bye Bye.

America and Bitain illegally invaded Iraq, what is the difference?
- mrdobolina0
1) War was never officially declared on Iraq.
2) Thousands of innocent women and children were locked up, totured etc. and then set free when no charges were brought against them.
3) America and Britain illegally invaded Iraq.
4) The American governemnt has changed their story countless times on why we are even in Iraq.
5) America held THOUSANDS of innocent Iraqis in prisons inside and out of Iraq. Secret prisons in East Asia, Syria etc.
6) I could go on forever but I don't have the time.
7) You're comparing Apples to Oranges.

The point is double standards are happening all over the place. Just think about it. No need to fight. Not sure why this is taboo to discuss.

Nice Kirshar.
Some really nice works on your site too.
- mrdobolina0
What exactly do you agree with Kirshar? Again just curious. I'm not looking for fights, just am trying to understand all of this in an enlightened way.

I hear what dobs is saying. He isn't trying to argue, just playing devil's advocate and pointing out that ultimately no one has been right in how detainees or prisoners have been dealt with in the past several years. Well really, in all of time you could say, but from an American's perspective, I thnk you could use 9/11 as benchmark time-wise. For this country, we have entered a different era since then, at least in how all of this is repoted on and how it's entered the overall conciousness.
Point is, IMHO, major global douchery is afoot.
- mrdobolina0
Exactly.
Imagine the outrage if these soldiers went through half of the shit that the people (many of them innocent) did at Abu Ghraib. The double-standard is astounding.
What if Ahmadenijad said that the Geneva Conventions were "quaint" like Alberto Gonzales did?
This isn't a partisan battle, it really truly is just about human decency.

didn't 5 iranian agents get detained by the Us in Iraq, i aint seen them on tv
but then again, Iran hasn't changed the rules of engagement 'to kill'
Iraq - cradle of civilisation? more like shit hole of civilisation
