"has been arrested in Iran and imprisoned indefinitely."

This use to be called "Hostage taking".

Siamak Namazi, an Iranian-American citizen who helped establish a pro-Tehran lobbying group in America, has been arrested in Iran and imprisoned indefinitely.

He must have done or said something that pissed off Obama and/or Valerie Jarrett.

Maybe Obama can trade a few terrorists for him.

NEW: Biden Unfreezes $6 Billion in Iranian Assets in Deal to Free Five American Hostages
Red State ^ | 08/10/2023 | Mike Miller
Posted on 8/10/2023, 9:24:27 PM by SeekAndFind

After it was reported on Thursday that Iran had transferred five Iranian Americans from prison to house arrest, it became clear that a deal between the Biden administration and the radical Islamist state had been reached — which would include billions of dollars of frozen Iranian assets in exchange for the Americans.

This again raises the question — which we’ll tackle later in the article: Should the United States pay ransom to rogue states and others for the release of captured Americans?

Anyway, sure enough, the United States and Iran have reached an agreement in which the Islamist regime will free the five Americans in exchange for several Iranian nationals serving prison sentences for violating U.S. sanctions on Iran — and unfreeze $6 billion of Iran’s assets in South Korea, which will be transferred to an account in the central bank of Qatar.

Biden just did a prisoner swap and cash infusion to get him back.

Weird thing is that two of the Iranians we were holding and Biden released for Iran will be remaining here.

Just weird.
