Michael Ramirez on Iran-UK Hostage Crisis

Yes, Michael, the situation of the Iran-UK Hostage Crisis is very much like Neville Chamberlain and Hitler as a prelude to World War II.

Chamberlain holds the paper containing the resolution to commit to peaceful methods signed by both Hitler and himself on his return from Germany at Heston Airport in September 1938. He said:

My good friends, for the second time in our history, a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time.

UK ‘shares Iran diplomacy desire’

Ali Larijani, of the Supreme National Security Council, said Iran’s priority was to use diplomatic channels, not putting the crew on trial.

The Foreign Office said it was still studying his remarks, made to Channel 4 News, but shared his preference for bilateral discussions.

It said it would be following up his comments with Iran on Tuesday.

A Foreign Office statement said: “There remain some differences between us, but we can confirm we share [Dr Larijani’s] preference for early bilateral discussions to find a diplomatic solution to this problem.

“We will be following up with the Iranian authorities tomorrow, given our shared desire to make early progress.”

Sounds like “peace in our time” or APPEASEMENT to Flap.

And, now, the British newspapers are blaming the United States for protecting its own interests and troops during the Iraq War for provoking Iran.

How do you spell BULL?
