The "Great" in Great Britian took a major whupping, on the World Stage, as Ackmandjinnisalad released the 15 'Hostages' taken while they were floating around on their rubber dinghy...while under the watchful eye of a British Destroyer.

“On the occasion of the birthday of the great prophet (Muhammad) ... and for the occasion of the passing of Christ, I say the Islamic Republic government and the Iranian people — with all powers and legal right to put the soldiers on trial — forgave those 15,” he said, referring to the Muslim prophet’s birthday on March 30 and the Easter season.

“This pardon is a gift to the British people,” he said.

Hmmmph. After wringing 'confessions' out of each hostage, and chiding the Brits for allowing a woman to assume combat duty when she had a family at home (that, and Pelosi stomping around in Syria with a robe and a 'veil', set the women's movement back 30 years...) Ahmadinejad magnamiously let the 15 go. But not before reaping public relations bonanzas.

Still, Blair can salvage some of his crumpled dignity, maybe by looking stern and saying 'That better not happen again, Maddy, or we'll simply have to give you over to the Bill Sykes treatment!'

Of course, Sykes hung himself....
