Hostage Letter Written by Tehran - The Danger Room

What interests me here is the appearance of a tit-for-tat kind of action on the part of the Iranians for U.S. actions against Iranian agents in Iraq. I don't have a problem with the U.S. acting against Iranian agents in Iraq since their presence there indicates something marginally underhanded at the very least. But this kind of call-and-response is troubling. I sincerely doubt that the U.S. would act militarily against Iran in the next two years but one never knows sometimes. Still, the hostage crisis is worrisome.
