假沿海邊界

英國的政府出版了顯示事件的座標的地圖，在伊朗或伊拉克海邊界之內。 主流媒介和甚而blogosphere完全地買了此。但有二個巨大問題。
A) 在英國的政府地圖顯示的伊朗或伊拉克沿海邊界不存在。 它由英國的政府草擬了。 仅伊拉克和伊朗可能同意他們的雙邊界限，并且他們從未仅做此在海灣，在Shatt裡面，因為那裡它也是土地邊界。 This published boundary is a fake with no legal force.
B) Accepting the British coordinates for the position of both HMS Cornwall and the incident, both were closer to Iranian land than Iraqi land. Go on, print out the map and measure it. Which underlines the point that the British produced border is not a reliable one.
None of which changes the fact that the Iranians, having made their point, should have handed back the captives immediately. I pray they do so before this thing spirals out of control. But by producing a fake map of the Iran/Iraq boundary, notably unfavourable to Iran, we can only harden the Iranian position.
