Looks like WW4 with Iran and Israel is about to begin.
Britain hails anti-government Iran protesters
Mon, 28 Dec 2009 17:47:58 GMT
British Foreign Secretary David Miliband on Monday hailed the "great courage" of pro-opposition supporters who took part in illegal protests in Tehran one day earlier, during which several people were killed and public property was damaged.
In a statement in London, Miliband condemned the crackdown on the protesters, saying it was "particularly disturbing" as it happened during the holiest event for Shia Muslims, Ashura — which commemorates the 7th century martyrdom of Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) grandson, Imam Hussein (PBUH).
At least eight people, according to Tehran's police headquarters, were killed in the protests which resulted in clashes between security forces and the demonstrators. Police say the force neither used violence nor shot a single bullet during the crackdown.
Miliband, however, attributed the deaths to the Islamic Republic, saying they were "yet another reminder of how the Iranian regime deals with protest."

There has been strong condemnation from both Miliband and Obama. I think that the Iranian government is right to blame Britain in particular for agitating the situation in Iran. If Iran's internal politics have to go through a period of seismic change (moderates versus fundamentalists), what concern is it to the UK or USA? The UK and USA governments are taking advantage of the discontent that was already there, and are deliberately stoking the fires to bring about civil war in Iran. After all, The UK and US governments would find it much easier to launch an illegal war against Iran if there is already a civil war going on there, as it would weaken Iran's ability to fight back.

Yeh that's right we don't do that sort of thing in Britain.
