If you’ve been watching Promethean Action, you know that Iran was set up by Britain (MI6) and the CIA. Who was CIA director just before Carter took office? If you said Daddy Bush - you’re correct. Carter never stood a chance. I hope the history books get corrected about him. I didn’t care for all of his policies but he was a much better man than Bush Sr was.
If he was not a puppet and held the full reigns as Commander in Chief, why was he so ineffectual? Just asking . . . But then, as you say, he WAS made a puppet of the CIA?? Whether he agreed or not??
Embassies are considered the territory of the nation which chooses to represent itself within the boundaries of another nation. US soil was held for 444 days! Ted Koppel was on the news each night, "AMERICA Held Hostage"! Not so many persons held as hostages, but AMERICA held hostage!
So Carter tried to do something. He failed.
This awesome mission to rescue one trooper, did not fail. Just saying!
I agree, Trump did not fail. But Trump knows exactly who he was dealing with, Carter had to deal with an unknown entity. Remember, Carter didn’t get the letter at the funeral, to me that means that Carter wasn’t part of the DS.
Yes I have heard this. But what was Carter doing to get them back?

Of course Iran was set up, more than once.
Carter was a puppet too, right? Of the same CIA?? For the same purpose??
OK Carter was a better "man" but his ineffectual policies harmed very many people. Just saying!
I have no knowledge of Carter being a puppet. If you do, please share. Based on what I know, he was outmaneuvered by our CIA - Bush Sr made it so.

I believed at the time -- and still believe to this day -- that the Carter administration was consistently sabotaged by the Deep State.
I didn’t know it at the time, just a kid, but I do know it now.
Carter got outmaneuvered. Color revolution and Shah of Iran was deposed right before this happened. Care to guess who he had to deal with? No other president before him had to deal with them. Good article that explains what he did try to do. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12-30/jimmy-carter-iran-hostage-crisis-us-presidents-legacy/100220132
