Like all we need to do is send in the SAS and they'll all be home safely in 24 hours. Is that what you mean? There are planty of measure that could be taken. And the SAS would be a viable option if we knew where they were being held Big if. |

How would you know man? It's not like this is a case of history repeating itself or something. of course you're right. I mean it stands to reason they would allow the entire country to be invaded before they would ever think about releasing them |

Just send in troops into Iran hoping a) you send them to the correct place and more importantly b) the Iranians dropping their weapons at the first sight of enemy soldiers on THEIR land??? |

So I should add c) hope the bombs we drop don't land on the troops we're trying to rescue. Good stuff. |

So, we're going to rescue them using military action without setting foot on Iranian soil? Those 'smart bombs' must be f****** clever like Still waiting for Stubb's solution btw. |

The EU:
"we strongly condemn the actions of Iran"
yet we should still sit back and talk about it?
do you fuckers realise the last hostages spent over 400 days in captivity before being released?

Those words mean nothing (and that's in terms of solving this - in case you were going to take that sentence literally too). You might as well have said we should rescue them. |

You might as well have said we should rescue them. well when you've laid out your detailed plans for how to proceed on a diplomatic front, I'll lay out my detailed plans for military action In the meantime, stop pretending you don't know the difference between black and white and playing the fool |

I don't have a plan, but I'd say that diplomacy is the least bad option at present. Any attempt at a rescue imo will lead to the captives dying (even if we did know where they were). The Iranians are holding all the cards as it were. I don't really know what you mean by "stop pretending you don't know the difference between black and white and playing the fool".
