Photo shows Iran leader as '79 U.S. hostage taker Ahmadinejad has denied role in embassy seizure, abuse of Americans

The Russian publication Kommersant has published a newly located photograph of a U.S. hostage-taker in Iran circa 1979 bearing a striking resemblance to President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The Iranian leader has steadfastly denied he was involved in the takeover of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and the holding of 52 Americans for 444 days despite assertions to the contrary of some of those hostages and former Iranian President Abholhassan Bani-Sadr, who says he was a ringleader and the liaison with Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.

This is scarcely new news:

We have eyewitnesses, actual American hostages who identified Ahmanutjob as being the hostage taker.

Should some Russian photo be given more credence than American citizens?

Yes, because it is the clearest one yet

http://rescueattempt.tripod.com/id28.html

On that page, all the previous pictures were examined, and most debunked clearly

HOWEVER, the one from the Russian site is crystal clear to almost be a photo shop!

It's prabably him- see, I'm right if it is and right if it isn't- Pacticing my democratic speaking skills- on another sorta on topic point- on the Glenn Beck show tonight they had this dude on talking about and annalysing Akmigenocide (as he called him) he made a VERY good point- the west sees the rhetoric from him as nothing but lbufs- but as the man pointed out, the terrorists while vile, are actually quite honest in their statements when they're issuing threats- AND the fact that President Tom (as Glenn calls him) says he's going to wipe Israel out and the fact that he is actively trying everythign in his power to get the nuke- We had BETTER take him seriously because he's not making an idle braggadiocious threat- it's for real, and it's also for real when he states that he's comming for us too.

The dude on the Beck show correctly reminded us all that Cuba for years was threatening us & no one took them seriously either UNTIL nukes showed up on their shores just 90 miles off our own shore. Then it was a scramble to reign them in- Folks- we aint gonna reign in Akminigenocide- He's had world dominations dreams for a long long time now, and while people like castro, Kohmenie (Sp?) and others were nutjobs, Akminigenocide is both a nutjob AND a devotee to Caluphate- and nothign is going to stand in his way-

Another point (sorry so long) is that we're seeing the dems emerge from the love cave and declaring that they want Habeus corpus for enemy combatants, they want to kill the patriot act etc- I know this is all in God's control- but it's just sad to sit by and watch the ignorance of the terror coddlers drive this great nation into the ground. P.C will be our undoing

Former hostage Don Sharer identified Ahmadinejad as a student leader who called Americans "pigs and dogs."

And the elitists call him one who honored the U.N. with a heart felt speech to bring the world community closer together.

Waterboard him for 15 minutes and we'll find out if he's the real deal.

I have no idea whether those two pictures are of the same person, but I do know that sometimes two people look a lot alike:

this one seems to be the closest to proving what previous hostages revealed!!

Great find, Race. It's 100 percent positive.

"BS ... the camouflaged jacket is the give away ... they were not that prevalent in 1979"

What the hell are you talking about?!? Camo jackets were all the rage in 1979, it was THE hottest style - whether on the disco floor or any floor of an embassy.

The nose in the photo on the left looks shopped...the coloring near the nostrils and tip....ditto the shading on the entire nose in the photo on the right.

That's not to say I don't believe he wasn't actively involved back in 1979...just these old eyes are still pretty sharp.

Sure ... and particularly hot in Tehran, especially this style of camo ... that didn't emerge for at least another ten years.

This is the man who is going to nuke his enemies. It is going to happen unless Isreal or America stops him. His first strike will be his last. But, given the current political sympathy for terrorists, he will strike before he is stopped. Republicans will be blamed by the Democrat media.
