The Biden administration may approve a sanctions waiver on Tuesday that will allow Iran to access at least $10 billion in previously frozen funds held in Iraq, a closely watched decision that comes just a month after the Tehran-backed terror group Hamas launched an attack on Israel that left 1,200 dead.
The waiver would extend the multibillion-dollar sanctions relief first issued in July that expires tomorrow. It allows Iraq to transfer frozen electricity payments into Iranian-owned bank accounts in Europe and Oman. The waiver renewal is driving concerns that the Biden administration is maintaining financial avenues for Tehran as the country’s terrorist proxies foment chaos across the Middle East.
"The world is living in a post-Oct. 7 world, but the White House is still running an Oct. 6 policy toward Iran," Richard Goldberg, a senior adviser at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and sanctions expert who previously served on the White House National Security Council, told the Washington Free Beacon, referring to Hamas’s attack last month. "Why should Iran have any access to more than $10 billion after sponsoring one of the worst terrorist attacks against American citizens and the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust? It would make more sense to freeze all of these accounts and keep every penny out of Tehran's hands."

Bingo.
Insane. Iran funds Hamas. Why should the USA continue to fund Hamas.
Give the 10 Billion to Texas, to deal with the invasion here of undocumented illegal aliens. Send guns and money. You can keep the lawyers.
What the...????!!!!
Treasonous
This is ValJar, the Iranian
Is this a joke?
He’s not nuts or stupid. He knows what they will do with this, and he doesn’t care.
IMPEAT FOTY SICK!
WTF IS WRONG WITH HIM. OH MY GOD. He wants us all dead. What a slap in the face to Jews in this Country. WAKE UP.
“This is Obongo”
Obama for sure. Biden doesn’t know Iran from Bora Bora.
I think the boyz in Iran have a testicle lock box with Bidenskyyyy’s family jewels in it.
10% for the Big Guy.
Again, biden’s funding both sides.
they’re funding the ukrainian conflict with oil to russia and cash and weapons to ukraine. Now they’re handing cash to iran and weapons and cash to isreal.
This is about never ending wars.
What the hell is it with Democrats wanting to give Iran money???! Good grief.
Nah, probably Ratface Jarrett from The Planet of the Apes is ordering it.
Smells just like Obama.
It will mean more terrorism. Obama loves supporting Iran and terrorism.
0bama’s hands up the back of the puppet.
Right, Ms. Jarrett?

You CANNOT fix retarded.
This would be like FDR funding Hitler.
Whats almost even more baffling is how election “analysts” openly say that they are completely stumped by the popularity of Donald J. Trump. If there were not so damn many pissed off US patriot-citizens, no one would have ever heard of PDJT. It is a legitimate tragedy that this country has become such a FUster CLuck that it takes a Billionaire Businessman with Balls (B^3) to straighten it out.
I read the first paragraph and the first thing that came in my mind was “...enemies, foreign and domestic...”
If the Dhimmicrats were honest, they would vote to impeach. The problem is, finding an honest Dhimicrat is like finding a square circle. Impossible.
