So here's a video of the captured British sailors being shown across Iranian TV today. Of course, it's filled with the usual bits of propaganda. However, if we (by "we" I mean the US and the British) were at war with Iran, this would be a clear breach of the Geneva Conventions. You could argue that this is still a theoretical breach, but I wouldn't go that far. You can tell what she's saying isn't true in her mind. Take a look at when she smokes. Her eyes are focused on one point and she clearly appears nervous and stressed.
So, if the Iranians are willing to parade around prisoners for propaganda, what do you think they'd do if we were at war with them? But of course, you won't hear anyone complaining of Iran's bullshit, you'll only hear it about America.
And yes, when the photos of Saddam in his underwear were shown across the internet, it was wrong as well.
