There is no 300 Billion Dollar payment to Iran by the U.S.


Yes…there will no U.S. DIRECT payment to Iran. It will be done by a shell game.

Why do they care what other countries invest in Iran?


Because the only leash on Iran for decades now has been sanctions and freezing their assets.

If you have a homicidal meth addict schizophrenic at home, you don't want anyone to give him the keys to the car. It's not enough that it's not you that does it.

with giving (or not giving) Iran $300 Billion?

Again, why should we care if regional countries want to invest in Iran?
.

Because we no longer trust Trump when he says “we aren’t giving the 300B” after the last three months of offhand bullschitt, and because our history is breaking stuff and printing money to fix that stuff and selling that as a win. Those neocon tools in the OP are a big part of what they are now decrying

They already have over half of the $300 billion committed from private equity, sovereign funds, etc


You honestly think wall street private equity is lining up to invest in fricking Iran? Who has been at war with the US since 1979 and chant “death to America?”
