    What last attempt under Biden? You talking about this foiled kidnapping?

    You really think Iran is 'even' after we cheesed their nuclear scientist and droned their top military guy?

    well, in that case, which attempts under Obama violated the deal when it was in place?

    Answer me a question - the Obama administration gave Iran loads of cash -- What did Iran spend the cash on?

    This whole cash thing is a red herring. That money was originally for an arms deal we were going to have to hand over relatively shortly anyway. It was never our money to begin with.

    Abandon the Middle East? You act like the Middle East is David Copperfield or something. We have economic iAnd diplomatic interests in the Middle East. They are not Germany knocking on Britain’s door and we are not Neville Chamberlain.

    Good luck at re-writing history. We gave Iran piles of cash via plane and unfroze bank accounts across the globe. Very little of this money was associated with an "arms deal". Nearly every last dime of the money was used by Iran to foster violent aggression across the region rather than aiding their own people -- which violates the agreement.

    Ok, show your work then. Source the money and where it went for the forum.

    I'm not answering your question after you've failed to answer mine.

    source? Surely we've got serialized bills at the scene of a crime like we did with the "fast and furious" guns?
