Numa sala perto de mim #434

6 Days (2017) tells the story of the hostage situation of the Iranian embassy in London in 30 April - 5 May 1980, when a group of armed men from Arabistan (a region of Iran) took control fo the embassy demanding the liberation of prisoners from that region by the Iranian regime. The hard line taken by the British government of having terrorists subject to the law of the land, and storming the embassy when hostages had been harmed proved to be correct. For the many defects of controversial Maggie Thatcher, she knew how to hold her own. This episode coincided with the hostage crisis at the American embassy in Tehran from November 1979 to January 1981.
