Just say it's your suspicion and stop acting like it's a fact, Squints. If you have time to write multiple responses about not providing a link, you have time to provide a link.

Sometimes you are just dense.

Do you think these guys were acting independently of the govt? Who supplied them? Why was the hostage release negotiated by the govt?

If the Iranian Government didn't sanction and support it, why were we negotiating with THE GOVERNMENT OF IRAN for the release of the hostages?

Don't be dense, Huff. This is way beneath you to be either this ignorant or trolling this much.

How is asking for a link dense? I'm just asking him to justify the word "support". The Ayatollah condoning it is not the same thing as supporting it.

If it's crystal clear that the Iranian government was supporting the student terrorists, why did we not treat it as an act of war?

I read the wiki link, and turns out the Iranian government put $1B in Escrow for US businesses that lost money in the hostage situation.

Just because they have the power to end a situation (and gain from it) doesn't mean they were a part of perpetrating the act.

A country that kills people due to their sexual orientation, lying about nuclear arms? Yeah right

Because when it happened the first time, the hostile crowds departed as soon as the Iranian Government told them to.

Secondly, as a nation were we really in any position to declare war at that point in time? We still were getting over Vietnam and very likely any military measure would never have passed Congress. Plus, our military in the late 70s was in pitiful shape as seen by what happened in Eagle Claw.

And do you have a link for that $1 billion in escrow?

Hey Carter was president. And he’s a fine man truly. But he’s about the most straight up example of ***** executive as we’ve ever had.

They purposely held the hostages until he was out of office as they knew he was powerless and once Reagan was in it quickly came to an end.

What about Reagan? If it was an act of war, why did Reagan treat it the way he did?

If proven Trumps subordinates colluded with Russia and he condoned it but didn't support it I expect to see you defend him as fervently.

I won't call him a "supporter" if he condoned it after the fact, no.

It was still an act of war. What is your point. We allowed an act of war go unpunished.

He punished them with sanctions. Besides the same dems who controlled the Senate and didn't declare war still controlled the senate when Reagan was sworn in.

What do you mean? Why didn’t he come into office guns blazing? To what purpose?

Huff you and I both know you are not in favor of that and you’re just trying to bait me.

It was a **** show that everybody just wanted over after the failed rescue attempt.

They should have just let Ross Perot handle it. 😬

Who said anything about declaring war? Reagan had all kinds of operations going on, so let's not pretend that he was some sort of constitutional originalist.

Sanctions? LOL
