THey are calling for the withdrawl of troops from Iraq (I'll be honest - I'm a little ignorant here, why does Iran give a furry squirrel what happens in Iraq? It's a completely different country) which is what those terrorist groups did right before they behead their detainees.

Barbaric much?

And then they get all pissy that the movie '300' portrays them as a bunch of hooligans.

Hmmmmm

I highly doubt those marines/sailors wrote any of those letters out of their own free will.
Do you realize how our invading Iraq looks to the rest of the world? Its the same political games all countries play, they weight the pros and cons and decide whats in their best interest.

Why does Iran want troops pulled out? Because there is a long and bitter history between Iran and Iraq (please refer to the Iran - Iraq war if you are not too familiar with it), with no US troops they can control the area better.

Also please check your PMs.
