So it is sadly ironic that, as British hostages return to their families, there is news of 4 more British casualties.
Four British soldiers have been killed by a roadside bomb near Basra, southern Iraq, the Ministry of Defence has confirmed.Prime Minister Tony Blair's shameful knuckling-under to Iranian perfidy, has only encouraged Iran to redouble its back-door participation in the Iraqi insurrection.
Prime Minister Tony Blair contrasted the safe return of 15 British sailors and marines held captive in Iran with the soldiers' deaths.
He said: "Just as we rejoice at the return of our 15 personnel, so today we also grieve and mourn for the loss of our soldiers in Basra who were killed as a result of a terrorist act."
Sleep well, Mr. Blair.
