The troubling history of Iran dates back four decades. How many know the history? I was 20 and did not know the history until after President Obama handed them 150 billion dollars. At that time Americas economy was plummeting, the housing industry flopped, infastructure was ignored, our Veterans were ignored, and unemployment was on an all time high. Does anyone realize what 150 billion could of done for America? We should of been insulted being afforded a 300 dollar stimulus check. And over 70% of that money went into flat screen TV's. That is disgusting and deplorable. 

150 billion is a hot topic and one worth learning all about. John Kerry is real quick to ridicule President Trump today. Yet, he has a flawed memory when he announced under the Obama Administration as Secretary of State, this 150 billion could come back to haunt us. That money was Iranian money but it was not put to use for their citizens and he knew this much.  

It is sad many decent Iranians are victimized by the Regimes who have risen off the 150 billion Obama sent over to them. Anyone else got a problem with this? 

Just what this game was missing, a second outside thread about Iran.

I missed the first Figment. It is a hot topic around the world. Is there a problem with a second?  Beings I was called the House passed a "non-binding resolution" today. Meaning it holds no water because they simply wanted another political document. The loony left in the House are shaking in their boots.

You added 3 extra 0s to the amount and it was Americas Money Obama gave Iran the money was frozen assets that the EU and America released to Iran after Iran signed there agreement. The Agreement the Mango Mussolini tore up. Which incidentally was working.

Wasnt*

do i care about iran? nope

The $150 billion was Iranian funds frozen prior to the agreement arranged by Obama's State Dept. None of that money belonged to America, its taxpayers, or its Treasury.

I've never understood how a geriatric, draft-dodging con man could somehow be held as the highest standard of truth for the Republican Party, but this is just another visible falsehood to pile on with the rest of them

Sad enough dont Usa understand that freezing those funds just let the ppl suffer and not those in charge, Iran is an ancient country and can overcome such things easy from Us so they dont nother at all, they will continue thanks to Trumps politics in middle-east that just make Iran even stronger, Trump dont know a shit about any foreign-politics, that he had shown many times. Make America great again, old words from Hollywood-president back in the 80-s and not even then Us had a chance against them.

Amecian just losing in this and gets more and more hated in all of the middle-east, thanks to Trunp.

Maybe they hate USA because  the government  trains terrorists to do it's dirty work. Then kill them when  the USA government are done with them.

Osama bin laden example  who the CIA helped build his camp to train his terrorist regime which helped the USA in battles against the Soviet Union in the 80's was given surface to air missiles which was later used against the USA.

Solemanie example  - who incidentally helped actually was instrumental in war against ISIS helped the USA actually the USA couldnt of beat them back with out him.

 The history of the USA in the middle east is a joke. always has been over oil. Funny enough this new issues started after Iran found a new oil field.

What a fine thank you from The government of the USA.  But not entirely unexpected.

Greed  - money - oil- corporations.

Caticorn, haver you served in the middle east?

In any case, violence isn't the answer.

Rather not talk politics here lol

The troubling history of Iran dates back thousands of years fella. New name perhaps, but same culture. 

To answer your question  no I have no served.  However someone from every generation of my family has served in the U.S military or a war since the  before the  Revolutionary war.  I even raised a fine young naval nuclear officer who was honorably discharged.

My family is well versed in the military thank you for asking.

That said you can support your military and support your country ( the land) and not support the corruption (government) that runs it.

And  thank you ,  Meatwad that was my point  with my post .  I only covered what 30 years of history,  if that.

WOOT! Iran is scramingUSA! Why is that? True colors eventually come to light! How many countries are screaming for Donald Trump? It seems the lazy in America have an issue with President Trump.

Interesting how this situation will evovle, i doubt there will be a war though
