Eight days earlier, Moezi had filed a routine training flight plan with authorities. Now, with his passengers aboard, Moezi prepared to take off. A crew member who was not part of the plot nearly came across Banisadr, who was in the rear of the aircraft, but two other crewmen who had joined the conspirators seized the man. When a second innocent member of the crew came looking for the first, he too was grabbed. Precisely at 10:30 p.m., the big jet began to trundle slowly down the runway. Only then were the two captives released and told of their...

They were fed up with the rigidity of the economy...
...nuclear question has strained U.S.-Japanese ties before. In 1974 retired Seventh Fleet Rear Admiral Gene R. LaRocque told the U.S. Congress substantially what Reischauer told Mainichi Shimbun. At the time the U.S. simply reassured Japan that it was not violating the agreement. Now, U.S. Ambassador to Japan Mike Mansfield has again advised Tokyo that the U.S. is honoring its commitments. Suzuki cites his own proof: since the U.S. has never asked for the "prior consultations" required for admitting a nuclear-armed vessel, he concludes serenely that "no nuclear weapons have ever been brought into Japan...
