Rewarding terror and carnage. A billion a hostage.
Another shameful foreign policy decision by the Biden Administration. Now that Iran has successfully blackmailed the Biden Administration, Iran will be much more incentivized to kidnap and attack American’s even more. We can also expect an emboldened Iran to fund even more terror with this financial windfall.
Iran will also use these ill-gotten gains to attack our troops, fund terrorism, and arm Russia. This cycle will continue until President Biden stops dancing to Iran’s tune and starts responding firmly and decisively to their aggression.

Releasing $6 billion to the butchers in Tehran just so American hostages can go to a different type of prison is a terrible deal. Iran shouldn't profit from holding Americans hostage.

Biden is shamefully caving to Iran’s blackmail and extortion. Rewarding Iran for taking Americans hostage incentivizes more hostage-taking.
The $6 billion ransom payment will help Iran build nuclear weapons, support terrorism, oppress the Iranian people, and assist Russia.…

While I welcome home wrongfully detained Americans, unfreezing $6B in #Iranian assets dangerously further incentivizes hostage taking & provides a windfall for regime aggression. The Biden Admin must punish those who use Americans as political pawns and work to end this practice. https://t.co/n1cXH9ldzR

Republicans torch Biden paying Iran $6 billion for American hostages: ‘a terrible deal’
‘The Biden Admin must punish those who use Americans as political pawns and work to end this practice,’ Idaho Sen. Jim Risch wrote
By Fox News, August 10th, 2023
Republicans online torched President Biden’s $6 billion deal to free American hostages from the Iranian regime.
The New York Times reported Thursday that Biden had negotiated the release of five American hostages from Iran in exchange for a handful of Iranian nationals serving prison sentences for violating sanctions against the Islamic Republic.
Sources told the paper that the U.S. also agreed to unfreeze nearly $6 billion of Iran’s assets in South Korea, transferring the funds into an account in the central bank of Qatar.

They didn’t do this to free hostages. They did this to fund the Iranian nuclear weapons program.
They use us to enrich and enable our enemies.
They set their enemies against each other to conquer without using their own army.
They need a major war to survive as a ruling class of “superior” bloodlines.
What happens if they go nuclear?
More blackmails.
We already have china and Russia, and North Korea doing that. We don’t need a 4th nuclear-blackmailer.
There is almost no difference than when the omaoscuminist aka bathhouse barry traded several terrorists, for the defector bergdahl, who responsible for several good soldiers getting killed. The Army should have shot bergdahl on the spot.
I called this a couple of years ago.
Biden will partner up with Iran and EVEN Attack Israel !
Watch and see !
This anti American idiot makes good deals. Obama told Biden to do this. He traded Brittney Griner for a notorious arms dealer and left a white Jewish journalist behine. This was really the best deal Biden could get. This is another excuse to give Iran money because Obama told him to do it.
He will be IMPEACHED very very soon, he needs the extra money.
