Iran hostage saga shows CIA failures and Khomeini leverage
Washington mishandled intelligence on Tehran crisis with conflicting reports and delayed analysis. Five captor factions emerged, led by Khomeini, whose influence dominates the embassy standoff as pressure mounts to resolve the hostage situation amid broader Iranian turmoil. Military action threats and internal power struggles complicate the crisis for Carter and NSC.

Letter on abortion education and moral decline in schools
The writer condemns the recent BOE decision to include abortion studies in seventh grade, arguing it corrupts youth and poisons family values. He calls for focusing on sexuality education appropriate to age, reveres religious tradition, and urges protection of moral standards over progressive reform. He links the issue to broader Court rulings and societal decay, urging parental and community responsibility.
