seriously, what was that supposed to be for?

Helping Iran spread the love and peace of Allah.

He's solidly pro-Iran. This was a bribe for them to not to develop nuclear weapons too quickly.
Recall they got the North Korea deal, so they will be nuclear anytime they want in just a few years. This is why Saudi is suddenly interested in going nuclear.
What could possibly go wrong with that?

It was their money, plus interest, that had been frozen in their U.S. bank accounts since the 1970's.

The US had seized assets from the Iranians with the over throw of the government. The US under Obama decided it was time to give back the assets with interest to the still overthrown government.

Iranian containment was the focus on pretty much all 8 years of his presidency. Yemen and Syria are both explicitly anti Iranian/pro Saudi and Israeli efforts. In my years in Obama's DOD, I never heard anyone say anything about Obama being an Iran lover.

Well, as mentioned earlier, Iran had assets that were seized by the govt when the Iranian revolution occurred. Then Bill Clinton gave a large portion if not all away to families affected by terrorist attacks. So, technically that money was already gone and came from likely taxpayer funds. So, Obama decided we really needed to pay this back to a country that hates us and works against us daily. Therefore, pallets of cash under the cover of night was flown into Iran so they could use it to fund terrorism and their nuclear program as their own currency holds little value. It's ok though...it wasn't obama's money...just make it rain cash to world.

It was a bribe for hostages and for them not to build their nuclear arsenal until he was out of office, given under the guise/fable of "it was their money that we were holding from the overthrow, so we're just giving them what was already theirs...with a lot of interest". It was one of the most detrimental moves a president has ever made post WWII. Not only to us, but the entire world.

i said that before and got blasted by the trump loving anti Obama crowd. they don't listen to truth.
Posted on 3/23/18 at 8:35 am to hogcard1964
It was at the same time as hostage release. What is the truth of Clinton giving the money already?

Was it Khomeinis money or the Shahs?
Posted on 3/23/18 at 8:40 am to SDVTiger
It was the Iranian government's money.
Posted on 3/23/18 at 8:42 am to LSURussian
So Shah Gov or Khomeini Gov?
There is a big difference
