The democratic-communist relationship won't stand in the way of the Islamic force

I mentioned that I ran out of reading material on a recent flight. One item I managed to find in the rather barren Phoenix airport was a recent Atlantic magazine with a Mark Bowden article. The article concerns the Iranian hostage crisis and the failed rescue attempt. While most Atlantic articles are not available online, this one is, and has a number of multimedia features. As part of the press tour for his book on the crisis, Bowden had this interview on Fresh Air. I was going to pass on the book, but after the interview and article, I am all up on it again.
