The Officer nominated to lead the Iranian hostage task force was Major General James B.Vaught.It was not one persons fault ,more like a calamity of errors.There is a good book on the rescue mission titled ,The Iranian Rescue Mission Why It failed,By Paul b. Ryan.

Fed by a lack of understanding at the highest levels that one can't simply toss together a complicated attack on the spur of the moment, covered by a shroud of secrecy.
