Has Iran declared war on the UK?

've been waiting for all the so called reps of the peace movement to condemn Iran for attacking the Kingdom, and effectively declaring on them. For that is what they have done by seizing UK troops in Iraqi waters.

Imagine the outcry if the UK or US had done this to Iran.

There is no doubt the UK troops were not in Iranian territory. How do we know this? Because the Iranian themselves provided a location which turned out to be in Iraqi territory. It was only after they had this pointed out to them, did they change their claimed location.

Iran should not be rewarded for their act of war. They should not get to use the capture of the soldiers as some bargaining chip to benefit them. They are also in breach of the Geneva Conventions.

Iran are in the wrong and are militarily inferior to the UK, let alone its allies. This is not a time for weakness and appeasement which will encourage repeat behaviour. This is a time for firm deadlines for release, with a clear indication that failure to do so will not be in Iran's interest.
