The EU and other nations need to apply real political pressure to Iran. The best way would be for the likes of France to dispatch warships to the region.

Assuming that the Iranians "start it," would Blaire get enough traction to stay in office? I know that many Americans are asking that question about Bush. I myself have written about how a U.S. President could stay in power as the result of a martial conflict.

A blockade of oil exports from Iran would get their attention real quick.
That would be a likely scenario.

Riight... and the next thing the Iranians will tell us is that the Brits confessed to killing the Easter Bunny.
I don't think that even Ahmadinejad is stupid enough to harm these Brits. They will be released soon.
