seriously, any non-retarded person understands that all these payments to iran are hush money payments. occam's razor.
otherwise, you'd have the cognitive dissonance inducing story that iran is both an existential threat to mideast and world security and a country to which we should send billions of dollars.
the real question is: what do they have, and on whom do they have it?
must be something very big.
my $0.02 is that it is evidence of treason at the highest level in the US to start a nuclear war. maybe obiden was trying to get iran to start it.
