the Iranian Mullahs throwing feces in the face of their favorite US president and it’s well deserved.

Nevermind it’s all BS...
I’m still scratchin my head about “hard cash” in multiple currencys of which none were Rials.

A vet just called Rush, says we never should have released that money because Iran funded weapons, technology, to kill Americans.

We should have kept it and repaid our veterans and their families.

FROM THE ARTICLE: This represented (1) the first installment of a $1.7 billion settlement the Obama administration reached with Iran to resolve a decades-old dispute over a failed arms deal signed just before the 1979 fall of Iran’s last monarch, Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. The settlement, which resolved claims before an international tribunal in The Hague, (2) also coincided with the formal implementation that same weekend of the landmark nuclear agreement reached between Tehran, the U.S. and other global powers the summer before. “With the Iran nuclear deal done, and, (3) US prisoners released, the time was right to resolve this dispute as well,” Obama said on Jan. 17—without disclosing the $400 million cash payment.

Dollars to donuts the language seen here is being used to cadge huge donations earmarked for M/M O's post-presidency get-rich-quick plans.

The dangers to US ntl security were apparent when the Clintons used foreign policy initiatives for foundation fund-raising.

Taxpayers demand to see donation solicitation letters sent out by the various Obama fund-raising entities....his 2 foundations and library fund.

Valerie's the one that rites this pap......taxpayers demand to see wire-transfers in and out of Valerie's office.

And if Obama receives donations from Iran, Taxpayers demand his foundations and library fund be closed down.

=======================================

"Nice deal....since I get half of that donated to my tax-exempt foundation.
Another chunk goes to my presidential library's "Muslim Prayer Room."

==============================================

GOVERTNMENT FRAUD AT ITS FINEST---a get-rich-quick plan.

Obama's federal giveaways (that we know of). Priming the Obama
foundations pumps---giveaway tax dollars now --collect donations later:

<><> $150 billion to Muslim Iran in the nuclear deal...plus the latest handout

<><> $2 billion to help half-brother Malik advance his organization---the Muslim Brotherhood,

<><> $50 million to Malik/Barack's tax-exempt foundation in the form of a grant to Muslim Kenya.

<><> While the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama (and Hillary) showered them w/ praise.....and billions of US dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes. Payback is coming due.

<><> Obama gave $90 million US tax dollars to wealthy oil-rich Muslim African countries.

<><> the missing billions attached to Obamacare.

<><> Obama gave Michelle seventy-three million tax dollars to teach Muslim girls in Qatar

<><> Obama gave Michelle 100 million tax dollars to teach Muslim girls in Morocco.

What CRAP!

Those were not Americans by any standard. Sharia declares these people to be subjects of the global nation of Islam.
They can never bow down to any nation’s constitution, as a result they are NOT Americans.

What obama did is set a new value for muslim human life... 100 million each!

Only for his brethren!

No Iransome" was paid.

[CodeToad]

It was a payment to ISIS via Iran. Period.

[GOPJ]

Iranians love giving the finger to Obama and Kerry... AND to the Washington Post and New York Times.

Iranians are friggin are telling the truth on this issue to liberal elite liars... it’s funny in a twisted sort of way.

[Pearls Before Swine]

I’m amazed 1) by Obama’s stupidity in dealing with Iran, 2) his shameless lying, and 3) that this occurs even after they repeatedly embarrass and disrespect him.

He’s merciless in using the law to twist and abuse the American system, but a supine pussy in dealing with any belligerent foreign governments. If he can’t solve it with a cruise missile, or support of a “moderate” (i.e., bought radical) group, he’ll fold like a cheap suit.

Does he enjoy bending over for the mullahs?

BBC Persian reporter Hadi Nili posted the footage on Twitter and describing it as showing the “pallets of cash” and quoting officials as saying “this was just part of the ‘expensive price’ to release Americans.”
