Stop Pretending – It’s Not the “Fungibility,” It’s the Location of the $6 Billion Returned to Iran
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | Oct 8, 2023 | Sundance

Posted on 10/09/2023 9:57:30 AM PDT by Texas Fossil

You want to go deep weeds, let’s go deep weeds.  Almost all of the conversations about the $6 billion given back to Iran have focused on the fungible aspect of money.  While true, that focus misses the key and essential point, where the money was delivered.

The captured $6 billion was held in a South Korean bank, the result of sanctions violations.  What the Biden/Blinken crew did, was move the money from South Korea to a bank in Qatar.

Now, many people may not at first understand the nature of how that makes such a significant difference.  The lack of understanding is the result of people not fully grasping what Qatar does in the Middle East.   Qatar is the financial center for Islamic extremist operations.  Qatar is the banking center for the Muslim Brotherhood.  The Brotherhood is the political umbrella for a host of Islamic extremist groups.

Qatar is well known to CTH readers and those who follow the deep weeds of geopolitics.  Qatar has historically been the financial center and funding mechanism of the Muslim Brotherhood.  In many ways Qatar is to the U.S. State Dept, CIA and political elements of the Intelligence Community in the Middle East, as Ukraine is to those same entities in Europe.

We have outlined the long history of Qatar as it pertains to a myriad of U.S. interests.

EXAMPLES: •When the Obama/Clinton State Dept wanted to fund the covert weapons to the Benghazi rebels, they used Qatar. •When President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi expelled the radical leaders of The Brotherhood from Egypt, they went to Qatar.  •When President Donald Trump asked the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) to confront radical Islamic extremism, the Arab nations confronted Qatar.  •When Qatar was forced to expel the five most radical leaders of The Brotherhood, they went to Turkey.  [Turkish President Recep Erdogan is aligned in common principle with The Brotherhood.]  •When the U.S. released captured Islamic extremists from Gitmo (al-Qaeda in Afghanistan), they were transferred to Qatar.  •When the Taliban took back control over Afghanistan, the al-Qaeda leaders from Qatar went back to Afghanistan.

This is a must read discussion of the reality of the O'Biden Regime upon the instability in the Middle East. Obozo's fingerprints are all over it. No illusion.

The MSM will NOT convey any of the reality of this situation. The Regime is trying to "spin" the damage done by the deal with Iran. The ComDem's own this, along with most of the Deep State and the RINO's.

Don't get too lost on the weeds on this. In addition to the 6 billion:

Since April 2021, the United States has provided over half a billion dollars in assistance for the Palestinians,

Where do you think that money went?

Also don't forget the "pallets of cash" Obama sent over.

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS!

Now we have the closest thing to a complete explanation we are ever going to get.

Michelle, if you wanted to pick a day where one should be ashamed to be an American, this would be the day. Psalm 83 goes for more than Hamas and Iran; it goes for DC. I’m beginning to know how Elijah felt in the cave.

Griffin is a complete deep state hack. Catherine Herridge was (and is) the real deal.

Griffin is a Biden/Obama mouthpiece. She sold her soul in exchange to be first in line on state department propaganda leaks.

So far you and I are the only ones I've seen to mention that.

Well said and on target.
MAGA across the country needs to hang the attacks around the neck of Obama, since he’s running the Executive Branch and has been since The Steal.
Any attempt to replace Biden with Mrs Obama should be met with demonstrations carrying Israeli flags.

Partner, when I first heard about this the very first person that I thought of is Obama.

If you put $30,000 in my savings account and tell me it’s only to be used for household expenses and I then take $30,000 from my checking account and buy a new car, who paid for the car?

Once again, it wasn’t $6 billion ..... it was $16 billion.

The Six billion was made public, but he kicked in another ten billion a week later, and that was kept fairly quiet.

Exactly. Even if it was in another account, the net effect is the same for a nation.

Ms. Zero will not run.

You are correct, regardless of how Biden feels about Israel he will fake support of them, knowing that there is an ancient bond between Israel and the USA.

The Iranian protesters said it best, back when the Kenyan was in the White House -- "death to the mullahs, the mullahs must be killed."
