what do you think of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's easter present to the brits?

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Iran would free the 15 detained British sailors and marines Wednesday as an Easter holiday "gift" to the British people.

What a pretencious prick..... Hey we basicially kidnapped your troops ignored the geneve convention, but thru our generosity we have decided to free them for your holy day, is anyone going to take him seriously? Such a generous man freeing hostages from the goodness of his heart. maybe we should build a memorial to him since he's been involved in political prisoners twice now? or should we build him a glass skating rink in Tehran?

Update:

I agree having them freed is the most important thing. i just have concerns about the political fallout that may arise

    Yeah, he's pretentious, but the Brits shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. Any one can see that he's just trying to make a political move that makes him look good. Thank God the hostages are going to be freed.
