I think we got them pretty good for 1979 when that US Navy ship accidentally shot down an Iranian Airliner in 1988 killing all 290 people on board.The Islamic Jihad bombing of the Marine Barracks killed 241 Marines and no one was killed in the embassy take over and the Men that died during Eagle Pull died because of poor planning not by Iranian bullets so their deaths I blame on the DOD and we just left their bodies as well Iran made a postage stamp of a burned airman.
So I think death wise we are about even. Ahmadinejad was in no way involved in the embassy take over in 1979.That misinformation can be explained in the statement by Platapus; "It should also be a country that most citizens don't know much about so they will rely on the media for their propa... uh I mean information." With this line of thinking why not start the Civil War again I think we southerners owe you northerners for burning down Atlanta. The Japanese could say that they owe us the deaths of a few hundred thousand US citizens for the Japanese one killed by fire bombing in 44 and 45. Such ideas are very poor reasons to go to war in a modern world in particular.How many thousand Iranian and American soldiers must die to satisfy what is owed? Some kid beat me in a fight when I was 10 years old I must track him down and beat him in hand to hand combat I owe him. Last edited by Stealhead; 03-19-12 at 11:15 PM. |
