Bush Speaks Out in Support of Great Britain (Video)

President Bush spoke out in support of Great Britain today calling for the release of 15 British sailors and marines being held by Iran. Bush said their capture by Tehran “inexcusable behavior.”
(FOX Video 1 minute)

The action by Bush was unlike the House democrats who refused to support Great Britain saying, quote, “Inserting Congress into an international crisis while ongoing would not be helpful.”

The House democratic leadership is currently off to Syria to “insert itself into an international crisis.”

Meanwhile… Iran said today that the guilty British sailors and marines may be brought to trial and punished!

While in Iran… Protesters took to the streets yesterday after Friday prayers and pelted the British embassy in Tehran with debris.
(BTW- This embassy news didn’t get any media attention.)

Update: AllahPundit says that there may be something in the works for the British sailors’ release.
