Let them go - ok?

I'm sure wherever the British sailors were, they were right on or near the border with Iran. Of course with GPS and all, they probably knew exactly where they were. So, I take the British at their word - they did not cross into Iran. While I'm sure the Iranians also have GPS, they are said to have been doing some "probing" lately.

Do they want war? Does the Coalition want it? Just let 'em go and that part of the confrontation will be ended. This sounds like a provocative action to encite a retaliation.
