Harder Line By Khomeini Stirs Iran Hostage Crisis Debate
Ayatollah Khomeini said the UN panel may question U.S. Embassy hostages if Tehran allows access, challenging decisions by Iran's Revolutionary Council and officials. He demanded copies of documents on U.S. intervention and the shah’s crimes, while urging national support for the council and president. The hostages’ fate remains tied to Tehran’s parliament and the panel’s report, with uncertainty over their release.
