Iran Takes 15 British Soldiers At Gunpoint

[shobet]

I like to think that there's an RN Trident boat somewhere in the Persian Gulf, and the Captain's got his finger hoverin' over the "Fuck y'all" button.

I thought all the UKs Tridents had broken down, or have they managed to find some more big elastic bands to keep them running?

Rosie O'Donnell on the British sailors held hostage by Iran: "But interesting with the British sailors, there were 15 British sailors and Marines who apparently went into Iranian waters and they were seized by the Iranians. And I have one thing to say: Gulf of Tonkin, Google it. Okay."

Wow, Rosie is siding with Iran. Maybe she supports them sending in Insurgents to kill our troops. What an Un-American !@#$.

[rjohnstone]

Rosie is a stupid C#$T. I'm with Donald on this one.
Oh I forgot... she has a crystal ball and knows the truth about everything in the world.

[charvelguy]

I don't believe her comments indicate her favoring Iran's position. I think she's just being her usual sarcastic self. Her comment meaning something to the effect of.."if you know the apple is going to be bad, then don't eat it" or.."if you know you're in a bad neighborhood, and the gang lines may cross the street.. don't walk there"
Another one in her case would be "if you suspect Michael Jackson is a child molester, don't leave your kids with him"

And No... I don't like Rosie.

Oh now this is classic. At 6 mins in, Rosie said this is the first time in history that fire has melted steel.

Ok, I guess I better run down to Crucible Steel right down the road here that uses fire on a daily basis to melt steel that they are doing it wrong. I guess she also doesn't seem to understand that it doesn't take much heat for steel to lose over 50% of it's strength.

[rjohnstone]

I would love to see a physics professor make her look like the ass that she is.
Hell... I'll bring an off the shelf propane torch and a few pieces of steel on the set and show her just how wrong she is.
She is a seriously confused individual.

[VitaminG]

holy shit, evidence that a tv host is making statements about subjects they don't really understand? This is the first time in history that this has ever happened. Stop it guys, you're undermining my faith in television

[OnlineStageGear]

Haha, I got banned from commenting on that video. I guess if you don't post pro-rosie statements, you get banned.

[rjohnstone]

The conspiracy nuts like Rosie drive me insane.
I love the "perfect implosion" comment.
Far from perfect. WTC 7 was a fucking wreck after the north tower rained debris all over it and took the whole front of the building down.
And it didn't stay in it's "footprint" at all.
I've seen the view from WFC 3 where my company (American Express) HQ is just a few days afterwards when we were retrieving equipment.
There was nothing controlled about any of it.
All 3 buildings were everywhere. Our corp HQ was closed for 16 months while they repaired our building. It was fucked up pretty good when pieces of the south tower landed on it.
Half the 4th floor of WFC 3 collapsed onto the 3rd. Fortunately they were able to repair it.
So all these asshat talk show idiots who didn't set foot down there until well after most of it was cleaned up can suck my ass.
Controlled demo... not even close.

It speaks volumes about the Iranian character that they see this episode as somehow redeeming. It also strikes me as a real sign of weakness. Hostage taking is for the weak and degraded generally.

Agreed. I'm glad we don't take hostages:

Yeah, I made a comment which also did not appear, basically just saying that steel is cast by melting it with fire and pouring it into a mold. I wonder how Rosie has the power top censor Youtube comments on the fly?

Bunch of dimwits commenting in her favor too....

[rjohnstone]

Touche'
Gitmo was a bad idea from the beginning.
We should have declared them POW's and let them have their Red Cross visits in a POW camp.
They'd still be locked up, but out of circulation.

[Cleveland Metal]

Per CNN live:

Well, the hostages have been granted "amnesty" and are to be released shortly at the end of a press conferences.

Still saying that they're "sorry" that the British Government is not brave enough to admit that they were trespassing. Yeah... Right...
