A lot of people are pissed off at Iran anyway. Who's waters these soldiers were in is still unclear. The Iranians are probably trying to make a statement saying "hey, we'll take your guys too". But then what? What's really going to happen? A trade is unlikely. Concessions are unlikely.
This is only going to piss off even more of the Western world. Now they're just flipping their finger.

come on man they dont really give a fuck about pissing the world off. they're the bully right now, our war in iraq has put them in a power position that they werent in before. unfortunately because of that they can do nearly anything they want short of straight up attacks and executing soldiers like was mentioned here in the first post.
for the record i was against the war in iraq, but actually am in fact in favor of military action against iran. however its much more difficult as a result of our actions in the war we took on for iraq. there are many many things that are now factored in that weren't before that put us in a fucked position.
