[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2508427, member: 58386"] As for the Iran hostage crisis Reagan said " I would have sent the Marines in there" Oh that sure sounded good. The reality is this. A few months after Carter left Newsweek obtained a copy of the intelligence report regarding a possible invasion of Iran. You know, " I would have sent the Marines in there". According to the intelligence report disclosed by Newsweek and I read it myself due to the lack of a ground staging area the invasion would have to be all airborne in nature. Because the Soviet Union was and still is a solid ally of Iran it would have immediately intervened in Iran's behalf. The result according to the Pentagon intelligence report clearly stated that the 82nd Airborne would have been completely wiped out in 38 days. [/QUOTE]
