Particularly sweet was the detention of $775 million Iran had advanced to the U.S. for purchase of military equipment. Iranians demonstrating within the U.S. against their host country have also received a message from the White House. The order that all of the Iranians here with a student visa must report into an Immigration and Naturalization Service office to show they meet all requirements to retain their visa got their attention. This action has cooled down the fervor displayed by Iranian students who have been burning flags. stoning policemen and generally raising all kinds of hell in our streets. Now we are listening to them whining about being picked on and trying to compare themselves to the AmericanJapanese who were interned after Pearl Harbor.
