After watching the press conference and hearing what the British Navy personnel held in Iran had to say, it's pretty sad to hear what they went through. The solitary confinement and not knowing if your crew mates are still there or not must have been pretty tough.
At they same time, I can't help thinking about the pictures of the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq and what the American soldiers did to those Iraqi prisoners.
Neither scenario seems humane at all...very cruel. I can't grasp how someone can treat another person like that. History is filled with stories like these though...and there will be many more stories about people being imprisoned and maltreated. It's all part of a bigger chess game...
