Iranian people across the country take to the streets, marking the anniversary of the US embassy takeover.

The US embassy in Kabul has directed its staff to destroy sensitive documents and computers as well as other material that could be used against the United States.

Apparently great friends, Iran and the USA fell out with each other in 1979 due to the Islamic Revolution of Iran, but most Iranians remember no less than 60 years of underlying bi-lateral enmity, beginning with US bullying.

The necessities of an 8 year war, while isolated on all fronts, forced Iran to improvise a defense strategy based on the concept of self-sufficiency and independence of military defence capabilities.
