It's still AID isn't it? We gave it to them when we didn't have to didn't we? Like I said, I'm surprised that A. The U.S. sent people in, thats not something usual and B. The Iranians let them in...

Geez,I'm glad that every American isn't as arrogant and ill-informed as you.My thread was about the swift deployment of personnel to a hostile environment and along you come,trying to loudmouth it into an 'America Is Always Wonderful" piece of bullshit.Frankly,I'm getting tired of dreary little cheerleaders like you,America DOESN'T get it right all of the time,and only a fool would pretend otherwise.This mission to Iran is a great example of practical assistance,rather that politically expedient 'aid' which often amounts to little more that the dumping of surplus agricultural product.
