The British Hostages

One of the things that Britain seemed to be doing by co-operating with the U.S. was punching above its weight. I think the Iranian hostage situation has brought Britain back to reality, at least for a while.

Panda,

Britain simply doesn't have the muscle on its own to defuse the situation, and the U.S. is unlikely to risk a lot to intercede to aid the U.K.
