TAKEN HOSTAGE | AMERICAN EXPERIENCE | Part Two, Chapter One

[@lynnharris3189]

I love how the Iranians complained what a tyrant the Shah was but Khomeini was no better he had bloody hands as well.

[@michaelotieno6524]

Khomeini was still new in office then with a power sharing agreement with Iranian socialists. The shah had been installed by the Americans hence anything other than him was a welcome change.

[@daveverplank]

The Shah couldn't hold a candle to Khomeini when it came to brutality.

[@NunYa953]

Stupid oil? You're not too bright.

It's a shame what Reagan did to these hostages just to win an election.
