Re: UK sailors captured at gunpoint
You guys have to read this Americanist’s column in New York Post…
April 6, 2007 – IT WAS a fitting image of the 14 wimps and a sob sister arriving back in the United Kingdom yesterday: skulking away with pink goody bags in hand. The color was no accident - although yellow would’ve been more appropriate.
The released hostages weren’t allowed to make any more statements. Apparently, the Blair government feared they’d repeat their lavish praise of their Iranian captors.
Look, we’re all glad they’re home safe, if not necessarily sound. But why on earth is Britain, the land of the legendary stiff upper lip, celebrating cowards who clambered over one another to shame their country?
Wouldn’t the Brits do better to make a fuss over the many soldiers of the queen who’ve served bravely in Iraq and Afghanistan? Why break out the cakes and ale for officers who enthusiastically briefed Iranian propaganda for the TV cameras and who let their subordinates behave as if the Revolutionary Guards were their best pals?
What this American is saying, that you cannot say anything good about someone that America considers its enemy or future enemy…If you do, you’ll be labelled as these guys are…
They say there is freedom of press in the USA…Why wouldn’t there be…Everyone says the exact same thing…
Just read his column…He can;t stand these soldiers saying something good about Iran and his fury is emanating from his words in the column…This literally made me laugh as I read it today…Americanists can’t stand criticism about themselves and can’t stand praise for those they dislike…Truth hurts them so badly it’s not even funny…
This is the exact same case that happened with Jill Carroll…When she was captured, she was the darling of the media…Everyone was so concerned, so empathetic sending this and that…Then when she came back and praised her kidnappers, the Americanists started to hate her as to she should have been decapitated, shot, hanged, left to die and she even received death threats…
But now that her memoirs of her events will be published (Written for her by some else despite her being a writer herself), and it’s a known fact that her captors will be portrayed as bad guys in it, everything’s all hunky dory…
What a bunch of cry baby bullies these Americans are…Pffft!
