"President Obama on Thursday pushed back on claims that the United States paid $400 million for the release of four American hostages in Iran – defending the transaction as evidence that the controversial nuclear deal with Tehran acted as a catalyst for progress in other areas.
"This wasn’t some nefarious deal," he said during a press conference at the Pentagon. "We do not pay ransom for hostages."
Reports have surfaced in recent days that a $400 million pallet of cash was airlifted by the Obama administration to the Iranian government at the same time four Americans hostages were released"

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The State Department says a $400 million cash payment to Iran was contingent on the release of American prisoners.
Spokesman John Kirby says negotiations over the United States' returning Iranian money from a decades-old account was conducted separately from the prisoner talks. But he says the U.S. withheld delivery of the cash as leverage until the U.S. citizens had left Iran.
Both events occurred Jan. 17.
Kirby spoke after The Wall Street Journal reported that the departures of the crisscrossing planes were linked.

Someone lied. You be the judge as to who...

C'mon!
No one lied.

“We do not pay ransom. We didn’t here, and we won’t in the future,” the president told reporters...

The US claims the money — delivered in cash stacked aboard an unmarked cargo plane — was part of a settlement

John Kirby was asked at Thursday’s press briefing: “In basic English, you’re saying you wouldn’t give them $400 million in cash until the prisoners were released, correct?”

“That’s correct,” Kirby replied.

See?

It's not ransom.

It's blackmail.

If they ever wanted to see their 400 million again they'd pay the US with hostages/prisoners.

...So "technically" there was no lying.

Didn't you ever see that sign on Ron Paul's desk?
"Don't steal. The government hates competition."

Blackmail, piracy, arms trading, slavery, kidnapping, theft, control, whatever.

So "technically", Iran may have another 100 mil coming to them....

""Detained Iranian-American Robin (Reza) Shahini has been formally charged with “acting against national security,” “participating in protest gatherings in 2009,” “collaborating with Voice of America (VOA) television” and “insulting the sacred on Facebook,” but his lawyer has not been granted access to the evidence being used against Shahini, an informed source who requested anonymity told the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran.""

Insulting the sacred on Facebook? If true, a country with that kind of law is a helluva country to negotiate a nuclear deal with laugh
