History

Historical Context

Roger Marshall invoked the 1979 Iran hostage crisis, when 52 American diplomats were seized on Nov 4 1979 and held for 444 days. President Jimmy Carter’s failed rescue attempt and the subsequent Algiers Accords ended the standoff, establishing a pattern of U.S. pressure that today underpins calls for renewed strikes and sanctions against Tehran.
