Iranians like to hold Americans hostage. [View all]
We know this from their Revolution in 1979. Many think the hostages were the reason Jimmy Carter lost the election in 1980? Reagan did make it a political issue, as I recall.
But, it should be a warning to all Americans in that part of the world. They are likely targets for hostage takers.
In war, nothing is predictable.
It might be wise for Americans to vacate those countries as soon as possible?
