CBC Radio Canada News is reporting that a deal for the 15 Brits in trade for 5 Iranians has been announced! I hope the Iranians don't screw it up somehow.

The Iranians are obliged by international convention to:
1) Make known to the interlopers that they are in Iranian waters
2) Escort them into international waters
3) Lodge a complaint with the interlopers' government
I've heard this before. The bad guys have to obey international laws while the good guys can do what they want with the world. Guantanamo Bay and Lebanon sound familiar?

Iran has every right to do whatever they like with them.

That was well brought out Daedalus!
And then, we don't know at this point in time whether the Iranians are lying or the Brits. It's 50-50. Identifying a boundary on water in the visual mode is not the same as doing so on land where one has easily recognizable features to go by.
