BBC NEWS | Middle East | Iran 'unable to take Australians'

Good for the Aussies! They have more guts than the vast majority of English. That might be why it is one of the very few contries I respect. Good on ya, mates!

BBC NEWS | Middle East | Iran 'unable to take Australians': "When Iranian Revolutionary Guards captured the British sailors and Royal Marines in March, it was not exactly their first attempt.

It turns out that Iranian forces made an earlier concerted attempt to seize a boarding party from the Royal Australian Navy.

The Australians, though, to quote one military source, 'were having none of it'.

The BBC has been told the Australians re-boarded the vessel they had just searched, aimed their machine guns at the approaching Iranians and warned them to back off, using what was said to be 'highly colourful language'."
