Vance’s admission contradicts what he said on Friday, when he claimed in an X post that Iran would not be “receiving any cash, and no funds are being released simply for signing a deal or attending a meeting.” In addition to the U.S. and its allies paying $300 billion in reconstruction funds, Iran reports that the U.S. has agreed to release $25 billion in frozen Iranian assets.

Peace is good, handing over 300 billion dollars to a theocratic state is not.

The US federal government and many of its states are in fact theocratic if it makes you feel any better

Yeah, like how many billions have they handed over to Israel, or the Gulf States. The hypocrisy is astounding. OP is a grade A chauvinist.

A great way to avoid this in the future would be to stay the fuck out of Iran's business. And it is a good thing, they need to rebuild the infrastructure that you psychotic murderers destroyed. This will help the people of Iran more than bombs or failed colour revolutions.
