How Is This NOT Intentional?

Obama works for his friends.

Now the U.S. is inadvertently paying for some of Iran's military expenditures as well.

It all starts with $1.7 billion the U.S. Treasury wired to Iran's Central Bank in January, during a delicate prisoner swap and the implementation of last summer's nuclear deal to resolve a long-standing dispute about Iran's arms purchases before the revolution of 1979.

For months it was unclear what Iran's government would do with this money. But last month the mystery was solved when Iran's Guardian Council approved the government's 2017 budget that instructed Iran's Central Bank to transfer the $1.7 billion to the military.

Billy, I take a tentative issue with Mr. Lake's contention. I thought that money is Iran's own money of $1.8 bil in American banks, frozen by us and now released to it's owner. If that is the case, this is NOT taxpayer money. The second thought is...I wonder what Oliver North thinks of this.

The US was wrong in releasing the money----
because Iran is a hostile nation-----supporter of world wide terrorism and has caused lots of
damage to American citizens

To be fair, if you dig around enough you will likely find many unseemly governments that have been supported by Dems and Reps administrations.

Indeed, but generally we support unseemly governments keeping our own interests in mind. Obama has reversed the process.

Lordy Lordy, billy! You're just tweaking your little heart out. Bottom line is...it is NOT taxpayer money and the whole premise is misleading, misdirecting and plain old wrong, intentional or inadvertent or not!
