The British troops held in Iran for 13 days were released today as an "Easter present" to the British people from President Ahmadinejad. He pardoned all 13 and while also praising the commander who captured them. The reason I'm bringing this up is because all the men captured got nice suits while the lone woman received something from the local Iranian Goodwill store. Not to mention that all the guys are dressed in greys and blues and she's in a great big circus tent under her denim coat. She might regret that more than being captured!

This was exactly what I thought when I saw this picture plastered on every front page in the world. The Iranians managed to make her the butt of several jokes along the way, this one perhaps most blatant.
