They Won't Even Get A Nightline Out Of This

I don't know what this Iran-Britain crisis proved, as the Brits were released today. Other than diplomacy and negotiation works (and apparently Syria was a mediator). Iran probably feels that they humiliated the West and proved their point, Britain probably feels they successfully managed a global incident without any bloodshed.

Well, OK. And maybe this will stop an accidental war in the Middle East and show that crises can be averted. But I pretty much don't see how something that inflamed tensions and prolonged animosities really helped matters.
