Six months before launch.

#4  More important, despite all indications to the contrary, we have a surprisingly good relationship with the Tehran regime. They could have caused much more trouble for the coalition in Iraq than they have.

Saying that "They could have caused much more trouble for the coalition in Iraq than they have." is like thanking a mugger for not being a murderer.

The author is a blatant facilitator of Tehran's goals. This world is infested with morons! Stupidity should be painful.

#3  I don't get it. Normally The Sun is the home of tub thumping jingoism. Hardly the place you'd expect a commentary piece along the lines of "Our Mullah Mates Matter". Makes me wonder if there was a behind the scenes lobbying campaign by Downing Street to keep the rhetoric down. And if so, why? And why would the Sun editors care?

Can this columnist buy a clue? Tehran is the source of much of the violence and Islamic terror going on throughout the ME. I'd wait til the sailors are returned and send a cruise missile to blow those boats to bits
