British Marine held in Iran admits the Sailors were Spying
Uploaded by: mingoi313
Video Description:
The 15 captured British sailors are back home in Britain. Now they're safe Five News can show the full exclusive interview with Captain Chris Air - where he reveals the true extent of their mission. The most senior of those captured, he admitted Britain is in the Gulf to gather intelligence on Iran. The British Government insists the sailors were only acting within their United Nations mandate. Five's Jonathan Samuels conducted that interview.
Here in Devon watching the two seeking helicopters land was a fantastic sight. Back home, safe well and hugely relieved the 15 arrived back on British soil. After two weeks of tense diplomacy and negotiations the navy personnel will be as delighted as their loved ones to be back in the UK. I spent
two days with many of these dedicated and brave personnel. As we went out on patrol in waters off southern Iraq, there was much banter between the colleagues and friends. But there was also incredible professionalism. Just days before their capture, and in the warm Iraqi sun, it seemed so safe as
we sped over the sea to check up on Iraqi fishing vessels. But what a false sense of security I had. Not long after I left them to their work they were surrounded by Iranian gun boats and seized. Their 13 day ordeal had begun. I chatted extensively to marine Captain Chris Air. An intelligent and im
pressive leader of the group. He told me as he stood on an Iraqi fishing boat that part of their role was intelligence gathering on the Iranians. Back then I hardly blinked; this was not necessarily a revelation. But now the comments have much more significance. If we had broadcast those words the h
appy outcome could have been so different. The official line from Ministry of Defence is the Navy, under a UN mandate, is protecting Iraq's oil infrastructure and the security of merchant vessels. In Tehran there were calls to put the 15 on trial. Chris Air's comments some may say could have bolste
red any case against them. On MOD advice we of course were happy not to jeopardise those sensitive negotiations, only now can we reveal the comments. All of us are relieved to see the 15 back, whatever their role along the Iraqi maritime boarder - it's my belief the men and women I met will be keen
to get back to that job just as soon as they can.

| How can u accuse of of killing innocents when you have so blatently killed so many more. 2. america has supplied weapons to the Taliban (my point is it doesnt matter where it comes from where there is demand, supply exists). islam came and destroyed idol worshipping and its fundemental point is to worship one God not crosses or human gods, etc. Our christ was Jesus the Son of Mary not Jesus the half man god or the god that died lol. your false prophets like paul have led you so far astray |

| dasenuff, you sound like one angry person. You need to reflect the teachings of Christ or whoever it is that you follow in deed, as in word. As for your superflous generalizations and intellectual howlers, I shall be generous and blame them on your temperament. Be well. |

| We shall leave it ... ( 5 days ago by mingoi313) |
| We shall leave it for the readers to arrive at their own conclusions. But I'll take the liberty to correct an accusation you made against me. I did not tell YOU what to, or not to, believe in. I was rather conveying to you the virtue that humanity places on 'sticking to one's principles', and the inherent vice it associates with hypocrisy. Hence the word reflect. I also thank you for your kindness. |

| popint is...how can anyone 'arrive at their own conclusions" when constant lies and misinfo are bieng posted here! i do not appreciate your cynism - facts are facts and pound the podium or bombing a retaruant full of civilians wont change facts. i get angry as any sane person does when truth is distorted and when one KNOWS better. the best is to live in peace but not when there is such a great threat to humanity as trhis islamic murderous cult. |
| I have no special ... ( 4 days ago by mingoi313) |
| I have no special interest in engaging with any form of cynicism in discourse. With respect to your points, it is exactly what a large part of this world has been complaining about. Forget the Middle East, do you know the recent history of South America? Look at how the US has intervened there and the grave human price. There is something called "state terror". It would be helpful to read up on it. |
| I condemn ... ( 4 days ago by mingoi313) |
| I condemn unreservedly the killing of innocents whoever they may be. Whether such terrorism is carried out by Muslims or non-Muslims, it is equivalently evil. I hope you do the same. I'll leave you with an extract from an article by Israeli writer, Gideon Levy: "Someone who throws burning matches into a forest can't claim he didn't mean to set it on fire, and anyone who bombards residential neighborhoods with artillery can't claim he didn't mean to kill innocent inhabitants." Your take? |
| once again you have ... ( 4 days ago by Y0unis) |
| once again you have proved how ignorant and mislead you are. You have taken it completely out of context when Jesus says he and the father are one heres the whole verse: ...Neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father who gave them me, is greater than all, and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and the Father are One." Jeez!! I cant believe Im trynna explain your own bible for you. LISTEN, THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD WHO IS FAR ABOVE HIS CREATION. |
| Paul butchered ... ( 4 days ago by Y0unis) |
| Paul butchered christians and then made out he was one so he could attack the faith. This people honoreth me with their lips; But their heart is far from me. (9) But in vain do they worship me, Teaching as their doctrines the precepts of men. (Matt 15:1-9, ASV) btw Jesus was a man approved of God look at Acts 2:22 "O you men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a MAN approved of God among you..." How clear is it?? and btw we never even come near stone worshiping its a direction |
| Throughout his life ... ( 4 days ago by Y0unis) |
| Throughout his life, Jesus was concerned with the poor, the powerless and the oppressed. Many times he has said the believers fit in these categories. Do you think your huge dominance and power are good do u feed the poor?? You really misunderstand the religion of Jesus. Read the bible!! People will come to good but it will be evil and some will go to assumed evil but it would be good |
| who has ever ... ( 4 days ago by Y0unis) |
| who has ever claimed islam to be an older religion?? we have claimed that Our Prophet who is a descendant from Ibrahim is the last and Final messenger 1400 years ago (around 600AC). The religion of One God and submission to God (the meaning of Islam) has been around since Adam peace be upon him probably a million years ago and not a few thousand years ago as christians believe |

| 2. ...but if your ready to admit that islam/muslim religion was/is based on idol worship...which it is..and NOT a GOD adoring religion as youclaim...then it is old... i.e the biggest lie of the world! |
| paul butchered ... ( 3 days ago by dasenuff) |
| paul butchered christians becuase he was in the same "anti christ" mind as the muslims /islamist faqcist of today! they cant accept the TRUE CHRIST and hate the children of the truth becuase they cant stand to loose therer lie and power.... so if your going to quote scripture..then listen to this idiot islam boy.." there is NO NAME UNDER HEAVEN BY WHICH YOU CAN BE SAVED OTHER THAN CHRIST JESUS." THAT MEANS YOUCANT BE ISLAMIST AND CANT BELIEVE IN CHRIST MORON! |
| u still aint ... ( 1 day ago by Y0unis) |
| u still aint answered to the biblical verses about one God. Islam is one of the only religions that worship just God. No worship towards crosses or symbolism, pictures, marys, jesuses, popes, asking priests for mercy, we just listen to Jesus not turn our prophets and crosses into idols of worship jesus never told us to do this. When Muhammed (pbuh) came he destroyed all 360 idols in the Kabba, we cant make pictures and idols of god like you like to do because it leads to idol worship. |

| You said it your self ONE GOD. The bible has never been the exact word of God there is no exact same source so your arguments can never be strong. Pauls corrupted the bible intentionally and many others have unitentionally |
