How were the Brits humiliated exactly? The same way Charles Limburgh was? Iran kidnapped British troops. Britain decided to play the waiting game instead of responding.
Want to take a bet the "avoid conflict" order when approcahed by Iranian vessels is rescinded? Or that British warships will now accompany their smaller vessels?
Iran didn't win anything, nor was Britian humiliated. Isn't it people like YOU who think everyone should talk everything to death? The Brits went your route and got "humiliated." Hmmmm.........
