"A British man has described how he, his wife and an Australian man were kept "hostage" for 13 days by Iranian authorities during a sailing trip.
Rupert and Linda Wise and Paul Shulton were seized by the Iranian Navy as they sailed from their home in Dubai to a disputed island in the Gulf. "
13 DAYS!!!! The animals! And, apparently kept in great comfort and treated with every courtesy. Oh, the humanity... Surely, they could've looked at their skin colour and realised there was no way they were spying or a security threat. It's not like they were Brazillian or anything...
