And they're running out of missiles. Which is why the whole shebang had to come to a quicker conclusion. Even at maximum production, restocking simply couldn't keep up with the pace.

would've taken 4.3 seconds to look up that it was giving back the money stolen by carter in 1979 as a good will gesture to the signing of the JCPOA.

but these knuckleheads love their tasty outrage.
too lazy to look shit up, rather listen to some demagogue or pundit.
kids these days....

Bank accounts frozen, illegal according to international (and ours) banking law, most belonging to private citizens.

You'd be surprised how many of them here already know. I've encountered quite a few who were actually around back then and they're still trying to play it off like the fanfic was the case, and it was just a lump of spending money Obama gave to them. Now the story has been mutated into direct funding for the very program the JCPOA restricted.

Others, of course, mainly the younger set, really don't know, and they actually fall for this stuff without checking.

A slight bit of education would tell you that the 1.7 billion IS Iranian asset in us which was frozen after the Islamic revolution, which in turn Obama agreed to return Iran their money and loose some sanctions in exchange for 3.67% enrichment. It was working out fine but there's this supreme maga terrorist and his cult who had to spoil everything.

Then why not give it back on day one of his presidency? Why wait until just three days before he left office at the end of second term? And why in pallets of cash?

Those are great questions. What have you done to uncover facts that answer those questions?

I searched for "obama iran pallets of cash" and had answers to all those questions in just a few moments. I had the answers so fast it will take me far far longer to type them out here than it took to find them.

So, 1). Why didn't he do it on his 1st day? Because it was part of the agreement that took almost 2 years to negotiate. He didn't do it on a whim or nefarious reasons- it was part of a negotiated deal that began in 2013 and concluded in July 2015. So, he couldn't have done it on Day One.

2) Why wait until just 3 days before the end of his term? Because that was part of the agreement. The deal was announced in 2015. The cash was returned in the time frame it was agreed upon.

3) Why pallets of cash? 2 very specific reasons. 1) US law prohibits US currency (digital or physical) being used in any transactions with Iran and 2) due to international sanctions, Iran is excluded from the world banking network. Which means they can't accept digital transfers or even physical checks.

So the money we'd frozen had to first be converted into physical currency, then that US currency had to be converted to Swiss and EU currency AND THEN had to be physically delivered to Iran.

Really? We can’t send money any other way? Then why were wire transfers used in other settlements with Iran, such as a $848,000 payment in July 2015 and a $9 million payment in April 2016?

You see Koan1 doesn't sound like the Obama, so Idk but I can guess and will be telling since you can't,
1 why'd he do such a revolutionary shit on his day 1 when his popularity is near peak, he needs a boost before leaving office
2 damn peasant tf you think you are to ask why the greatest terrorist deals money with some Arab in cash or credit, why'd it even matter.

Idk man just saying, have yourself a good day

Thanks for the slight bit of education...Iran now has about 900 lbs. of uranium enriched to 60 %. (IAEA, 5/25). What were they going with uranium that high, since commercial use at 3.67 enrichment?
1 up, 4w
That's called a deterrent policy, "see this 60% enricho nuko bitc? Sunuvaho take one more step wrong and I'm pumping it" is what it's supposed to be taken as but god bless your maga intelligence who've made sure that Iranians (even Khamenei haters) desperately ask Khamenei to get a nuke cuz fuc america, death to America death to Israel death to imperialism.
And mericans wonder why Africa asia middle east hates them to death.
One more interesting example of this "deterrent" was Israel during cold war who ALSO ADMITTED to have such weapon potential despite having barely any competition/threat, and they proceeded to produce 300 nukes anyway, with us tax dollars LMAO. Iran signed iaea npt, they didn't.

forgot to mention that Iran wasn't the first to pull out of that 3,67 agreement, your super genius trump had to pull out for zero fhckn reason so why'd Iran be bound by that without any incentive.
