DC–
CNN on Monday conducted a lengthy interview with an Iranian government official who once served as the spokeswoman for a group of students who held 52 American diplomats hostage for more than a year in 1979.
CNN’s Christiane Amanpour did little to push back on Iranian official Massoumeh Ebtekar’s assertions that the U.S. carried out a “terrorist” action by killing Qasem Soleimani, an Iranian general killed in a U.S. airstrike Jan. 2.
Amanpour also failed to acknowledge that Ebtekar was chief spokeswoman for a group of Iranian students who held 52 American diplomats hostage at the U.S. embassy in Iran for 444 days, from 1979 to 1981.
Ebtekar said in an interview in 1979 during the hostage crisis that she would personally be willing to put a gun to one of the hostages’ heads and pull the trigger.
Ebtekar, 59, serves as vice president of Iran for women and family affairs.
“The American president made a serious miscalculation, they made a serious mistake by assassinating, by taking this terrorist action, against Commander Soleimani, and I’m sure that they regret what they have done,” she said in her interview with Amanpour.
“This has created a great new spirit in the Islamic Republic of Iran, and in many countries in the world for all those who support freedom seekers, and for those who support the oppressed. Because it’s very clear that Iran is being targeted, and Soleimani was singled out because of this quest for righteousness against Da’esh.”
These people are capable of any kind of treason. Imagine if they knew we were going to be attacked on the mainland? You KNOW they’d hide it,or enable the attackers.
Amanpour is a long time traitor.
I guess it’s just SNN now: the Shia News Network.
Surrprraze, surrprraze.
Two muzzies backslapping each other on the Commie News? Network
CNN is the Communist News Network, always has been!
Amanpour is an extremely poor reporter.
“Commander Soleimani?”
I thought he was a General, or a Captain. Or maybe a Generalissimo.
At any rate, he’s still dead.
Liberals, with their disgusting agenda, would be the first people muzzies would kill.
Wonder why Don Lemon or Anderson Pooper didn’t do the interview?
She may have slit their throats on TV.
…what’s the big deal? They giddily give the microphobe to treasonous Democrats EVERY DAY, who do FAR more damage INCLUDING bringing the Islamic terrorsts here in the FIRST place, and THAT doesn’t seem to bother any one…

“Liberals, with their disgusting agenda, would be the first people muzzies would kill.”
…Liberals know this, but they think they can use Muzzies to destroy US, then enslave or exterminate them easily because they consider themselves smarter than Muslims.
…it rings a historical bell, something like this…

…for THEIR part, Muzzies will taqiyya all day long like they are besties with Democrats, knowing the Democrats will help them destroy US, and then planning to destroy the Democrats in turn because, frankly, soyboys would seem to be easy to destroy as they spend sll their time contemplating the meaning of their sexual organs.
…of course, they BOTH think they can sweep US away, and I for one don’t plan to go gently into that good night, so we’ll just see what happens when they TRY…
Who has the odious task of changing that old Muzzholes head diaper? Inquiring minds want to know!
CNN does not recognize right from wrong, good from evil. It is a thought process that gained a lot of popularity in the 1960’s. Good is whatever individuals determine it is. There is no objective truth. That’s why people are interviewed on shows like Oprah to spout off on their “truth”. So Bill Clinton has a “truth” all his own. So does Hillary and various Ho-wood starlets who claimed to have been raped.
