House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Rep. Ed Royce (R-Calif.) was on Fox today and said that the reason Iran wanted the ransom in cash was that it makes it easy to hand over the cash to support Hezbollah and their terrorism against Israel

Republicans blast $400m Iran ‘ransom,’ say it encourages kidnappings
White House denies funds paid to Islamic Republic were to secure release of detained US citizens; say it was interest for 30-year-old failed arms deal By Rebecca Shimoni Stoil August 3, 2016, 10:49 pm 1
The US is forbidden from engaging in dollar transactions with Iran, and so the funds were reportedly transferred into foreign currency, packed in crates, and transferred to Iran via Europe.
Prominent Republicans in the House and Senate alike argued Wednesday that the transfer of funds would undermine US security, particularly by encouraging Iran to detain more Americans, in the hopes of securing additional cash.

“It is nothing but a series of bribes and secret agreements that will do nothing to prevent Iran from reaching nuclear capability, yet will provide funding for their sponsorship of terrorism and encourage them to detain more of our citizens. This ‘deal’ should be ripped to shreds immediately before more damage is done.”

the fact they shipped unmarked bills, at Iran’s demand, is perhaps the most damning thing I’ve heard thus far. perhaps more to come. does anyone now how WSJ came upon this info?
Wow - yah think?
Good to know that Ivy league degree is being put to use.
Funny I haven’t seen much coverage of this $400 million cash transfer.
Maybe because every story in my news feed today is about “Trump dropping out”.
Packistan or the Norks would probably be glad to sell a nuke, even at a loss just to get the market started.
This is part of the 1.5 billion, so all of it can be funding terrorism
">Too bad it wasn’t swapped, unknown to 0jackwad, with counterfeit cash...
It can also kill a lot of Americans. soebarkah praises allah.
Reserve some rooms at Gitmo for Obama and his admin
And Obama says Trump is unfit to be POTUS.
It’s not a ransom. It is just payment for protection against workplace violence and man caused disasters.
Just another case of verbal obfuscation. But even if it were not a ransom, what were they doing negotiating financial deals with Iran while Iran is holding our military men as hostages?
