Iran Says Britain Must Admit Navy Trespassed
Iran continues playing an old game...the hostage one.

From the Washington Post:
Iran's foreign minister said British officials would be allowed to meet with 15 captured sailors and marines, but must acknowledge that the service members entered Iranian waters in order to resolve the standoff.
"Admitting the mistake will facilitate a solution to the problem," Manouchehr Mottaki told The Associated Press late Wednesday night in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where he was attending an Arab summit.
Mottaki's statement came on a day of escalating tensions, highlighted by an Iranian video of the detained Britons that showed the only female captive saying her group had "trespassed" in Iranian waters.
Britain angrily denounced the video as unacceptable and froze most dealings with the Mideast nation.
