Man in Iranian Hostage Photo Said Identified

Take it for what it's worth, but it does bolster the theory offered in this post.

Times Online:

But today, an reformist newspaper in Tehran, Shargh, said that the Iranian students shown in the photograph were Ja’afar Zaker, a militant who went on to die in the Iran-Iraq war, and a student known only as Ranjbaran, who was later executed for alleged links to an extreme opposition group.

As for the American hostage shown in the photograph, The Times learnt yesterday that he is Jerry J. Miele, who was working at a communications officer at the Embassy in 1979. Reached at his home today in Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, Mr Miele, 66, declined to comment on the photograph but said: "I don't have anything to say about the new President of Iran, I don't want to cause any trouble."

2 I wish these koranimals would get their stories straight. Well, they do last least have one thing in common, the guy they claim is in the picture is dead now. How convenient!!

Ex-Iranian Agent: Photo Not Ahmadinejad

A top Iranian former secret agent said Saturday that the hostage-taker in a 1979 photograph that has come under intense scrutiny is not President-elect Mahmoud Ahmadinejad but a former militant who committed suicide in jail.

Saeed Hajjarian, a top adviser to outgoing President Mohammad Khatami, identified the man in the photo dating to the 1979 U.S. Embassy siege as Taqi Mohammadi.

Stay Focused, guys!

If a "picture is worth a thousand words," what's an unsolicited non-coerced CONFESSION worth?

Those guys can quibble over nose-hair count all they want. As far as I'm concerned, he could look like Mother Teresa. If he say he da man, den he da man. Even if he wasn't involved with the hostages, if he identifies that stongly with evil, then he is evil.

One more observation. Why would a leader have the role of shelpping the prisoners around? Leaders don't shelpp when they have lower level grunts to do it. Also, grunts have to scowl. It's part of the job description. Outsmiling the leader, or cracking one at the wrong time is, at best, a BAD career move!

So, I'm for ole happy-face to his left (our right, as we look at the pic (Jawa has "?" and arrow)), and so are these guys:

Yep, that sure looks like him all right.

You distract him with the nose-hair count while I get the hellfire missle.

Oh, wait, what was I thinking? The UN would never allow such a 'criminal' act, unless it was committed by a muslim against the USA.

(...and, even more important, if it got him elected, what does that tell you about the voters, huh?)
