Was Trump right? Iran video may show US cash payment
Fox News.com ^ | August 5, 2016

Iran might have a video of America's $400 million cash payment to the regime after all -- even though Donald Trump backed off such claims early Friday amid intense criticism.

An apparent Iranian TV documentary in February about the prisoner swap in fact shows pallets of cash, which the narrator indicates is the $400 million payment in question. The video was posted to YouTube this week, after new controversy erupted over the payout.

The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this week that the payment, made in cash, coincided with the release of four Americans, fueling charges that the U.S. paid Tehran a "ransom."

The narrator in the video, speaking in Farsi, describes the money as part of a "swap."

"In this exchange, the Iranians demand the entire four-hundred million in addition to $1.3 billion in deferred interest," the narrator says. “The morning of 17 January 2016, Mehrabad Airport. Four-hundred million dollars in cash is transported to Iran by airplane."

The event happened, whether there's video or not, so I really don't see how it matters much either way.

Vote Trump!

I know. What the #### is the difference!!??

I haven’t watched Fox in over a year but the sad things is at least Trump has a Chance on some of the shows, like Hannity and even O’Reilly.

There’s no hope on the other networks.

It’s just the usual cluster burp from the Drive Bys.
Does anyone believe the coverage from the networks this year ?

Why such a protracted and meaningless discussion?

The Obama can call it "humanitarian relief for Jews in Iran," and it would make no difference.

The Umugabe regime can break every rule of reason and logic; language is not exempt.

History will marvel at the dystopian society which accepted it so unconsciously and silently.

TRUMP —> CLAIRVOYANCE

He has done this a couple different times.

Like the Belgium bombing, for example.

Has a weird Jedi radar.

This is what a powerful delusion looks like, and they believe the lie,

I have no doubt many people are just waiting in line to *tell Trump things* !

In fact, I think he knows everything that is about to happen ~

If his advisors haven’t sworn him off of those shows yet, I give up.

I wanted him to stop doing interviews after he was up 7, just bob and weave.

But no one listens to me :)

Hillary does one in TEN months with a handpicked crowd and she STILL screws up!!!

Trump may have seen this at the beginning of the year... There are so many effing videos that you can’t tell them apart.

They already admitted this. Euros, Franc and mark. Cash. Easier to buy untraceable guns for the hood.
