Those days are gone I guess.
Actually according to a documentary, the Iranians held on to the hostages and the announcement of their impending release just long enough to bring down the Carter presidency. It wasn’t until Reagan was officially sworn in and then basically the Iranians announced that the hostages would be brought back to the US.
Obama will issue a heartfelt statement of concern from a golf course somewhere.
Obama will just hand over another $150 billion to shut them up ‘til the election is over.
I have no sympathy for any American that actually goes there.
Remember that baloney about the three “hikers “ on “vacation” just across the Iranian border from Iraq. Yeah right! “Where do you guys want to go camping ? the Alps? Yosemite? No!! lets go to the Iranian border and hike in”?? Then all of a sudden we pay millions of tax payer money and they are released? Reminds me of that wayward “hiker” inside of Korea. He was crying as they sentenced him to 30- year “at hard labor”. Here is my advice. Stay the hell out of enemy countries, unless the CIA is paying you a ton of money-— oopps.
Is he a former Iranian who became an American citizen, or is he an Anglo. An Anglo going to Iran is about the same as going to North Korea.
