The post alleges a new U.S. claim that Iran is taking American hostages, but no major news outlets confirm fresh incidents as of February 27, 2026; it likely references ongoing detentions of dual nationals amid stalled nuclear talks.
Echoing the 1979 Iran Hostage Crisis—where 52 Americans were held for 444 days—this sensational claim amplifies current U.S.-Iran tensions, including Trump's recent threats of strikes and U.S. embassy evacuations in Israel.

There's no mention of new hostages

It’s got nothing to do with Putin, nor Trump….

Student protests erupted today at key universities in Tehran and Mashhad, with demonstrators chanting anti-regime slogans like “Death to Khamenei” and “Freedom.” Some even called on the U.S. to intervene, declaring they would “finish the job.”

It is important for people to understand that these students are doing this under the very real threat of death, imprisonment, torture, and maiming. The people have had enough and are at their limit.

It won’t take much, just a light shove.

That is the most Pollyanna BS ever.

Let the students figure it out.

Like the US is coming to “save the kids”, or even gives a rip, and not do Israel’s bidding.

Just a bit disingenuous, no?

ETA: US: “look, we have your house wired with C-4 and our finger is on the detonator. Sure, your wife and kids are in there, but we just wanna talk” *cocks hammer next to Iran’s temple.

Iran: Uh. G F Y S Yankee.

US: “Say when. I’m your huckleberry.”

Before I deride or chide Americans for even being there at this hour, lemme say that just because the CIA and Mossad are playing at the Berkeley Experiment, doesn’t mean American troops nor Iranian civilians are worth getting into it.

Besides. The mere fact that the Us has built up an armed force unlike any in the last couple decades just to “chat” is beyond quaint at present. Like the US has any interest in the pretext of diplomacy at this point.

If this is true, Iran ain’t f’ing around as in those hypersonic will sink a battleship before you can say “B-5”. I hope cooler heads can prevail. Or we suck at destroying nuke sites circa ‘25.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t we depose the Shah some 50 years ago to install the current extreme and militant theocracy they have had since?

Hmm. Odd that.

ETA: thanks for the update. American hostages would be bad m’kay…

Well, if you haven't already, better go stock up on gasoline and essentials (like good booze!) ASAP.

I have a feeling this one will be long and costly.

Maybe even a little terror on the home-front?


In light of recent reports, the chances of a mid-term election, may have just gone the way of the stock market....Down,  but perhaps not out?

Just on Fox News. The US forces are involved in the raids. No reports on exactly where the raids are occuring in Iran. No report of how the US and Israel are working together. Israeli civilians have been told to remain near shelters.

That is AI crap. It looks clanker made and that would be all over MSM. That is not on MSM. Not on Fox or CNN.

Correction: Fox News is now broadcasting that video.
