I Think I'm Getting The Vapors

Well it turns out the Eye-Rain-ians weren't nice to the British sailors afer all, according to the AP:

ROYAL MARINE BASE CHIVENOR, England - British sailors and marines held for nearly two weeks in Iran were blindfolded, bound and threatened with prison if they did not say they had strayed into Iranian waters, a Royal Navy lieutenant who was among the capitives said Friday.

Lt. Felix Carman, safely home with his 14 colleagues, said the crew faced harsh interrogation by their Iranian captors and slept in stone cells on piles of blankets. Unable to see and kept isolated, they heard weapons cocking.

"We were blindfolded, our hands were bound and we were forced up against a wall. Throughout our ordeal we faced constant psychological pressure," Carman said. "All of us were kept in isolation. We were interrogated most nights and presented with two options. If we admitted that we'd strayed, we'd be on a plane to (Britain) pretty soon. If we didn't, we faced up to seven years in prison."

What, no windowless cells with 24 hours of light and blaring music? No snarling dogs? No water boarding? No electrodes attached to genitals? No naked prisoner pyramids? No mock executions? No rendition? No Peppermint Patty posing for photos while prisoners posed in compromising positions? The Iranians really have lost their touch.
