nov 4, 1979 - Iranian Hostage Crisis 


Description:

A group of Iranian students stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, taking 60 American hostages, because President Jim Carter allowed the unpopular Shah of Iran, to enter the USA to receive cancer treatment. Though this decision was not political but humanitarian, Jim Carter stirred up anti-American feelings in Iran, and also indirectly costing his second term.
