“The United States and Iran today have settled a long outstanding claim at the Iran-U.S. Claims Tribunal in the Hague,” the statement from Secretary of State John Kerry reads. “This specific claim was in the amount of a $400 million Trust Fund used by Iran to purchase military equipment from the United States prior to the break in diplomatic ties.”

The claim was first filed in 1981 when Iran had an outstanding order for military equipment under the regime, which the U.S. refused to fill after the Iranian revolution. The payment is in addition to the $100 to $150 billion of Iranian assets the United States agreed to unfreeze as part of the Iranian nuclear agreement.

Yes indeed.

The God of Israel will settle the accounts with hellfire and brimstone.

He is watching this nonsense — and He is not amused.

I know the Kaddish! (Not quite appropriate maybe, here.)

On the contrary, I knew before I posted the Kaddish in my post #13 that it might be controversial. However, my thoughts on this, before posting were that perhaps some Jews here in America, Christians here in America, some Jews in Israel, some Jews around the world, might just happen to read freerepublic and that by seeing the Kaddish in this thread might give 'someone' who is in the know, someone who is a head of state, someone who is in the military - see the Kaddish written here, in black and white -and it would startle them - to push them enough - to pursue, by peaceful means, whatever it takes to stop Iran from any nuclear course of action that they might have in mind.

And put another way, the Iranians darn well know what the Kaddish means when they see it written and perhaps, just perahps an Iranian somewhere in the world, might come across this thread and that might get back to the powers that be in Iran...and they might have second thoughts that maybe this nuclear enrichment course of action they've been taking -might not be such a good idea to pursue afterall //might not be worth the risk to cheat on the deal. (personally I think this that 'deal' is a bunch of horse huey, not worth a tinkers damn)

I know this explanation, this post, might seem far fetched, but at this 'later hour' and the 'deal' having now been initiated, maybe my bare-bones post will be in some way helpful- -/// heck, I don't lol, - - just babbling.... haha
