Mottaki characterized the U.S. severing of diplomatic relations in 1979 as an “over reaction to an attempt by exuberant youths to experiment with unconventional methods of communication between our two peoples. None of these so-called hostages were harmed. All were released unconditionally in 1981. It’s time we called a truce.”

One of these "exuberant youth" is now Iran's president, who calls for the death of Israel and is working to make Iran nuclear.

What is frightening is that Obama is naive enough to buy this line of garbage.
