I've been in the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) world for decades.
According to the Terms and Conditions of the contract (all FMS contracts, by the way), the US and Iran are subject to—NOT bound by—a third-party of any nature, too include an international tribunal or court. . .it's in the T&Cs, clearly.
This whole thing is a lie by the administration to hide the fact they paid ransom and broke the law doing so.
Some conservative or republican somebody must be reading this thread. . .just research the DISAMM manual and AECA laws and my Post 41 points out the reasons why the administration is not only lying, but incompetent as well.
Gawd, I am so frustrated by knowing the laws, knowing the rules, knowing the contract and no one appears to be interested in reading the contract and exposing the administration for their lying.
“the US and Iran are subject to”
actually
“the US and Iran are NOT subject to”
