HopsGuy Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Wow. How effed-up was that? I was a little kid (just slightly more mature than I am today) and remember having nightmares after seeing the hostages led out with those blindfolds. I don't believe in the devil, but if there is one I'm sure he looks like this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molson_golden2002 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Wow, that was something I remember very well. I remember watching on the Today Show in the morning the botched hostage rescue attempt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wacka Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Expect something similar if the Messiah gets in. I expect the Misery index to come back and Obama wearing sweaters by the fireplace giving a speech on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wacka Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 The reason they released them just after noon on 1/20/81 was a final FU to Carter and knowing that RR would be sending in the troops the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blzrul Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 My cousin, retired USMC, gun-toting, crew-cut wearin wingnut was involved in that mission. He said once, and only once, that he believes the rescue mission was doomed before it began and that it was intentionally sabotaged intermally.
