Feed into the mass propaganda line. It is quite possibly true; many of those involved in the embassy seizure have gone on to success in political life there, though some have moderated to become, by local standards at least, accomodating reformists. It would take a bit of real research to suss the question out.

It is beginning to seem a bit of a dubious proposition to me that there will be a real war with Iran. It is very hard to see how anything more than air strikes would be a practical possibility.
