Terrorist attacks against the United States

11/10/2011 5:10 pm ET A man sets on fire a representation of a US flag, in an annual state-backed rally in front of the former US Embassy in Tehran, Iran, on Nov. 4, marking the anniversary of the seizure of the US Embassy by militant students on Nov. 4, 1979. On that day, militant Iranian students who believed the embassy was a center of plots against the Persian country held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days. The US severed diplomatic ties in response, and the two countries have not had formal relations since.
