...present crisis in Iran is cloaked in hysteria which obscures the important questions: Why is the Shah here and should he be here? The press dwells on the uncomfortable condition of the hostages, the Shah's failing health, and especially on the "anti-Americanism" of Iranians. When hostages express sympathy for their captors' demands, this is dismissed as a psychological syndrome without consideration of the validity of those demands.
