Why is nobody discussing the apparent human ransom that Obama paid? This human ransom cannot be explained away as part of the financial settlement of the legal case. Is this capitulation by Obama regarding human ransom new information or was it disclosed when it happened? Who were the 7 prisoners released, and who were the 14 for whom extradition requests were withdrawn? What have these 21 people done since the swap? If anybody can find any discussion of the human ransom, please post it.

Buried in the WSJ article is this:

“On the morning of Jan. 17, Iran released the four Americans: Three of them boarded a Swiss Air Force jet and flew off to Geneva, with the fourth returning to the U.S. on his own. In return, the U.S. freed seven Iranian citizens and dropped extradition requests for 14 others.”

Obama said: “Coincidence. Nothing to see here.”
MSM says: “Okay! Let’s go back to that Khan story.”

Why it is not mentioned what were these money for?

I have a feeling this has to do with downing of the Iranian flight 655 back in 1988 (yes, 37 years ago) and if so this puts the entire situation in a different light. Downing passenger planes is not a good thing to do and the compensation to the Iranians should have been paid decades ago.

This is very serious. Obama sent cash. Euros and Swiss Francs to Iran. On pallets. On unmarked cargo jets. From Switzerland and the Netherlands. Cash. Think about this. Cash. Governments settle debts through electronic transfer of funds between banks... not cash. ISIS networks in Europe are funded with CASH, Iran will fund terrorist networks in Europe using the cash Obama sent them in exchange for hostages. Think about this... Obama sends them cash and the cash is used to fund terrorists in Europe who kill innocent people...Insane... Paul Ryan, please introduce articles of impeachment today...

Just Iranian return on equity delivered by one loyal well-placed Iranian, Valerie Jarrett.

FOX News just had a Republican Senator say that the reason Iran wanted the ransom in cash was that it makes it easy to hand over the cash to support Hezbalah 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.

http://www.breakingisraelnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/dollars-iran.jpg

“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.”
