Methinks that the prisoner swap was a secondary part of the deal. The main reason for the deal was to get Iran the $6 billion. Somebody had to come up with an excuse to get Iran the money, and so, prisoners were added to the deal.

Some experts believe the deal signifies an easing of tensions between Tehran and Washington.

Instead of screaming “Death to America” 100 times a day, now they only scream it 10 times. Looks like progress is being made.

In other words, hostage taking is now a proven and prolific industry and a way to increase their revenues which means they will be doing more of it, and not only in Middle Eastern countries. Americans and Euros all over the world now have a target on them, courtesy of our stupid and corrupt “leaders.”

I read elsewhere that all six Americans were dual citizens of Iran. The idea of foreigners becoming American citizens yet choosing to remain immersed in the goings-on of their original homeland, especially a crazy country like Iran, to the extent of physically going there, and then calling upon America to bail them out when they get into trouble there, well it does not sit well with me.

At least now Iran has the money to pay John Kerry for the Nukes he promised to sell them.

Now our enemies know how much each American hostage is worth.

The $5.9 billion in cash released to Iran represents money South Korea owed Iran — but had not yet paid — for oil purchased before the U.S. imposed sanctions on such transactions in 2019.
Sounds like Iran should have gotten their money years ago.

No specific word yet on the estimated number of Americans who will be injured or die as a result of this ridiculous bribe...

Technically, then, it WAS a ransom.
And with this act Americans travelling abroad were placed in greater danger than ever.
Votes have consequences.

Now I know OBastard and Jarrett are running the organization.

So, what are the names of the Iranian agents Biden traded to them?
