Who really put to flight American hostages in America's embassy in Tehran in 1979? @user37324 the CIA and Canadians cooperated together, any arguments about one or the other being more important is propaganda. |

Are these remarks by Napoleon on Jesus genuine? While this would fit on skeptics, questions of the form did X say this generally aren't that great of a question due to it being nearly impossible to conclusively prove a yes or no, especially when the people in question are dead. |

Did the Soviet Union know when DEFCON levels changed? I imagine if their spies were unable to tell them the exact state that they would notice the increased activity, or be able to make a pretty good guess as it would have been their actions causing those responses. |
