Iran to Release Commemorative CD & Book of British Sailor Ordeal

Ok, this whole 15 detained UK sailors thing just keeps getting stranger. First the fifteen sailors get released unexpectedly, though there's just some wild speculation that maybe the US releasing some of its Iranian detainees may have had something to do with it. (Wild speculation...Cough Cough) So, the Britons are released, but not before getting a new wardrobe and gift baskets in front of an Iranian media feeding frenzy in a scene reminiscent of the Academy Awards. The only thing missing was the red carpet and the gold statuettes.

Weirdness over, right? No wait! There's more! Now Iran is coming out with a book and CD about the ordeal. What!? A CD? Come on! If it's not in HD, I say screw it! I want my propaganda in High Def! In America, we've become used to having choices. We can get our disinformation in any format we choose.

So...I'll pass on this once in a lifetime chance to own a bit of history, but I hear that there'll be a limited edition box set coming out a month after the release of the standard CD and commemorative book. I could be swayed to get that if its available on Amazon.com. I hear there's rare unreleased footage on the box set including a rap video featuring the 15 sailors mixin rhymes with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad about how the Holocaust never existed.
