Dear President Bush,
Today is the 28th anniversary of the barbaric assault on the US embassy in Tehran, which resulted in capturing and taking hostage of 52 American citizens against their will for 444 days. This barbaric act was the beginning of three decades of terrorist assaults directed at the Untied States of America and the rest of the civilized world. As a reminder to these terrorist acts, I will enumerate a few here:
- Bombing the US Marines barracks in Beirut, Lebanon, resulting in killing of the best of America, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1983_Beirut_barracks_bombing
- Taking American reporters and academics as hostage in Lebanon, see http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/june/30/newsid_2527000/2527337.stm,
- Hijacking a series of commercial TWA flights and diverting them to Beirut, Lebanon, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:TWA_847_Hijackers_with_captain.jpg,
- Bombing of several American embassies in the Middle East and Africa,

All of these barbaric assaults have their roots in the November 4, 1979 attack on the US Embassy by the Islamic militant students instigated by their leader, Ayatollah Khomeini! By all international norms, that was tantamount to declaration of war on the United States of America by the Islamic Republic of Mullahs. For 28 years, the American people have been patiently waiting for the US Armed Forces to return the favor! Please start the bombing of the Islamic Republic NOW!
Thank You and God bless America.
