Do you know why there was a hostage crises in the first place?



Because Jimmy Carter was weak.



Don't play stupid with me! The Revolutionary Guard had siezed the US Embassy the previous week and the Government of Iran ordered them to leave and the emabassy was vacated. All hostages were freed. What happened subsequently to cause the Iranians to hold them for over a year? What was there to negotiate?
