From Reuters: IRAN NEWS AGENCY SAYS U.S. WARPLANE VIOLATED IRAN TERRITORY, FORCED TO LAND IN IRAN Spike in Oil and Gold. Interesting but I don't know how much truth there is to this. We'll see.
From Reuters: IRAN NEWS AGENCY SAYS U.S. WARPLANE'S INCURSION WAS UNINTENTIONAL, U.S. MILITARY OFFICIALS QUESTIONED AND RELEASED
the captors agreed to release their captives in exchange for a joy-ride, along with a fuel-tank fill-up, which was agreed to.
Yeah, they just wanted to take it for a spin. Seriously, it is interesting that Iran was so accommodating and released the plane after it was confirmed unintentional. Not really what you would expect from a charter member of the "Axis of Evil", if the reports are to be believed about this incident. If Iran wanted to really cause mischief they could have held the personnel for a few days and watched the price of oil skyrocket. Interesting that they didn't...
