Bull-crap

“TEHRAN, Iran (CNN) — Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has met with some of the 15 British military personnel held in Iranian custody for almost two weeks, shortly after pardoning the group and vowing to set them free.

Iranian state television showed footage of Ahmadinejad shaking hands, smiling and chatting with the detainees. One of the 15 was heard to comment in English: “We are grateful for your forgiveness.”

Ahmadinejad announced the amnesty at the end of a lengthy news conference on Wednesday in which he said the 15 detainees had violated Iran’s territorial waters, calling their release “a gift to the British people.”

“I declare that the people of Iran and the government of Iran — in full power to place on trial the military people — to give amnesty and pardon to these 15 people and I announce their freedom and their return to the people of Britain,” Ahmadinejad told a news conference.

The action was a goodwill gesture for the Iranian new year, he said, adding that Iran had received a letter from Britain promising not to intrude into Iranian waters.

“The British government sent a letter to our Foreign Ministry and said it would not happen again. Of course, our decision had nothing to do with the letter. It’s a decision made by our government to give a gift to the people of Britain,” Ahmadinejad said in answer to a reporter’s question.

An Iranian diplomat in London told The Associated Press that the 15 would be handed over to the British Embassy in Tehran. Iranian state television said they would leave Iran by plane on Thursday, AP reported.

“They will go through some brief formalities and then they will go to the embassy,” he said. “They can go on a British Airways flight to Heathrow, they can go through the UAE, it is up to the British Embassy in Tehran in coordination with the Foreign Office here.”

No doubt this will make Mahmoud Ahmadine-thug a hero in the eyes of the media as well as the terrorists loving left, but the fact remains:

HE KIDNAPPED THEM!

This is like someone stole your car and then gives it back to you for a Christmas present.

After he exploited the Brits in the News he’s going back for seconds by stagging this BS. Unbelievable. We’re glad he released the sailors of course.
More disturbing is the apparent “deal” that took place for this release. If true - I’m pissed!

All I can say is we don’t stop this pussy-footing around with this thug there are going to be serious repercussions down the road.
