Yes. So Iran makes worldwide announcements that the only country they will not accept aid from is Israel. Israel had definitely offered. Remember our 444 hostages! Why should the US be sending help either?

We had that many hostages held in Iran? I thought it was something like 58. I think they were held for over 400 days. I could be wrong. It was so long ago. Anyway, I look at it like this: These 20,000 people who have perished can't harm me and neither can the other thousands who are injured or homeless, freezing in the winter with no way to stay warm except with the tents, blankets, fuel for campfires and food that our government is sending them. As I lay down in my warm bed with my central heat in my home I don't begrudge these miserable people anything like that. These people are not refusing Israel's help, it's their raghead mullah leaders who are being jerks. I am not going to hold it against them. I praise Israel for seeing past the hostility and offering the help even if it was refused.

LOL, man it is history and they were 52 hostages held for 444 days.
That generation took our people hostage is now forming the Moderate part of their government, most of them sent to prisons. I am no great fan of their regime but all I want you to know is that there are many big differences between regular Iranians and their regime.
Moreover, most of them are Pro-America, Pro-Bush, secular and well-educated people with a history of more than 3000 years old.
