...Shah's presence in the U.S. is a disgrace and an insult to the integrity of the American people, regardless of their view on the hostage issue. The conflict is not between our nations. Our anger is not directed at Americans because they are Americans. We have no genes for anti-Americanism in us.

Soviet Ambassador to Tokyo Dmitri Polyansky, however, rejected the protest as a "reckless act of interference in Soviet internal affairs." That added insult to injury, because Tokyo disputes Moscow's claims over the islands, which have been occupied by Soviet troops since the end of World...
