Should we follow Canada's lead?

This is great news and hopefully this is the start of a trend which will isolate Iran.

We haven't had diplomatic relations with Iran since 1980.

That article is 3 years old. The embassy and relations has since been restored. Iran and the UK have had a history of off again on again diplomatic relations.

LTC Private RallyPoint Member in other late breaking news, RMS Titanic is a bit late arriving in New York. Amelia Earhart has gone missing over the Pacific Ocean. Are they serious with that crap? They are either very naive, ignoring the issue, or just finally decided that enough is enough.
