Iran demands billions of dollars for agreement with USA
Arutz Sheva ^ | 6/1/26 | Nissan Tsur

Posted on 06/06/2026 12:25:10 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Mohsen Rezaei, the senior military adviser to Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, set out a series of demands on behalf of Iran to end the war with the United States and Israel in an interview with CNN. Among the main demands he presented are the release of frozen Iranian assets and the thawing of billions of dollars held by the United States.

Rezaei said that the release of the assets would constitute a significant test for Tehran vis-à-vis the Trump administration. "The release of the funds by the Trump administration will be a new horizon for the future of Iran and the United States. If he wants to reach an agreement with Iran, these $24 billion are a test of trust that Iran wants with Trump."

Yes. A test. Cash up front, and then maybe we'll have an agreement. We are testing if you're another American moron. Were you born yesterday, or the day before yesterday?

And they’re real upset that the dollar is devaluated. Tough sh!t.

It appears our president has only two options: slowly squeeze them to death or turn their homeland into a large parking lot.

Can we bomb them tonight and cause $24B in damages? And then explain that we don’t plan to give them any money for anything? And suggest that they really cannot afford to ask us again?

No free cash. We’ll buy oil from them at 50% of the free market price, or we can blow up Kharg Island and they can have zero revenue.

Just target whoever said that, and negotiate with his replacement.

Slow squeeze, smuggle in arms and trainers in via Kuwait, Khuzestan and Balluchistan. If Kurds attack from the North, it’ll appease Turkey that they’re attacking Iran, not them. If not, tough sh!t. Trump already stopped arming them, so Erdogan should STFU.

We don't have to open the Strait of Hormuz.

We can buy oil from Russia instead.

At the risk of sounding idealistic, what of the everyday Iranian people? I’m not hearing anything about securing their freedoms. Are we just ignoring that, and condemning them to further brutality and repression? And why are we pretending to deal with the Islamist hard-liners? If we allow them to stay in power we are just kicking the can down the road until the next corrupt Uniparty president is elected here who will kowtow to everything the Islamists want.

America doesn’t need to buy oil from anyone. Iran’s also alienated KSA, Kuwait and UAE, and there’s also Venezuela now. Who needs the Strait? China? Not that badly.

How about just keeping the blockade plus drop leaflets with recipes for “Roasted IRGC” for when the population is starving.

The irony of us turning to Russia for oil after we jammed up the Strait of Hormuz would not be lost on most.

The Islamists will not live that long. The Iranian people will finish them off, thanks to these going-nowhere negotiations while we have the Ayatoilets’ left ball in a vice. Arms through Kuwait to Khuzestan and Balluchistan.
