About 200 students threw rocks and firecrackers at the British Embassy on Sunday, calling for the expulsion of the country’s ambassador because of the standoff over
Iran’s capture of 15 British sailors and marines.Several dozen policemen prevented the protesters from entering the embassy compound, although a few briefly scaled a fence outside the compound’s walls before being pushed back, according to an Associated Press reporter at the scene.
The protesters chanted “Death to Britain” and “Death to America” as they hurled stones into the courtyard of the embassy. They also demanded that the Iranian government expel the British ambassador and close down the embassy, calling it a “den of spies.”
And Britain is doing what?
Iranian hardline students throw stones at the British embassy in Tehran. Islamist students threw rocks and firecrackers at Britain’s embassy in Tehran on Sunday after President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad slammed “arrogant” Britain over Iran’s seizure of 15 British sailors.

Britain is attempting to talk to Iran.
Defense Secretary Des Browne said Britain was in “direct, bilateral communication with the Iranians.” A Ministry of Defense spokeswoman said Browne was referring to letters and other contacts between diplomats, rather than any new face-to-face talks.
Browne, on a visit to
Afghanistan, said Britain had “the support of almost the whole international community” in calling for the release of its personnel, who were seized by Iran 10 days ago.
WOW, the support of almost the entire interrnational community. And this has stopped Iran from enriching uranium as well.
The Brits are WEAK and must bow down to the great Iran.
Maybe giving the Mullahs a couple of nukes will be the ticket to release the hostages……
