Question about the Iranian Hostages and their claims.

[MrSlayer]

We know that 4 hostages claim the new Iranian Leader was a captor of theirs during that whole situation back in the Seventies. But weren't there more of them? Are they all going along with this or have any spoken out against the allegations? I've searched a bit on Google and on the board here but haven't had any luck. Is there any info at all from that perspective?

1. See this

"On November 4, 1979, Iranian militants stormed the United States Embassy in Tehran and took approximately seventy Americans captive. This terrorist act triggered the most profound crisis of the Carter presidency and began a personal ordeal for Jimmy Carter and the American people that lasted 444 days."

2. It's interesting but it doesn't really help here.

I'm looking for something current that rebuts the stories going around now.
