While I agree with this are we supposed to believe the names they name? I mean if we can't trust them to denuclearize why should we trust names they throw out?

Easy.

The names that confirm our bias are true.

The names that don't confirm our bias are fake news.

That’s a bit disingenuous isn’t it? All the comments I see are asking for both parties to be investigated regardless of affiliation.

I’ll speculate here and assume that you know that since the deal happened under Obama, no one in the Trump team would be on that list. Were the shoe on the other foot, you’d be screaming for Honest Bob to investigate.

Only way to know if any of it’s true is for Iran to release the names and we investigate them all.

No. You don't just trust them by default.

I realize morons like Wild don't get it, but quite obviously, if they give names, then there's probably shite that can be checked to verify.

I mean, if they say Joey took money and a review of Joey's bank account shows a large sum of money entering it at the time they said Joey took it........

But of course not. A names list is just information. Information that needs to be corroborated.

But, it's easier to corroborate if you have the list than if you don't.
