Normally, if the facts weren't so clear-cut, I'd agree to having discussions to find a middle ground. But when almost every source points to the UK sailors being in the proper location (All the Brittish gov't GPS coordinates, the coordinates given by the Indian freighter, and the first set of coordinates given by Iran) except for the REVISED coordinated given by the Iranian government, this paints a very clear case. This is about as cut-and-dry as you can get, and the only thing Tehran's trying to do is to get the British gov't to admit they're wrong to springboard a new propaganda machine. Iran's probably just realized that they've gone in over their heads right now, and I think that's why they're playing the politics they are...
