Not one of the GOP candidates has anything positive to say about what looks increasingly like highly successful diplomacy in the Persian Gulf regarding return of Navy sailors who strayed into Iranian waters and the return of others held by Iran.
It seems like Obama's policy of rewarding good behavior is paying off -- not that the GOP would ever admit that.
So we go into sovereign nations, kill their people, help overthrow the leader of a democratically elected government, use sanctions which kill their people, use force to get our way and you call for good behavior?
Quit murdering innocent people. Bring the troops home and protect the borders like the Constitution says.
They think we are.. We are just playing games with them. 150 billion, nothing here in the USA. This gives us an opportunity to watch them spend it... And we will see the money being spent, so we have evidence for the next War...
And they will build a Nuclear weapon, which Hillary will declare as WMD against sanctions, to which all liberals will praise and worship her as we go to war...
And then Hillary can hire Marc Turi to run guns like he did in Benghazi. What could possibly go wrong?
I don't know about you people but I am quite sick of the lies in the media
that are allowed to go unchallenged and unidentified by the talking heads
on television and in the press who have Americans believing that "we"
are "giving" Iran "150 Billion" dollars as part of this nuclear arms deal.
This statement has been repeated thousands of times online, on tv,
on radio, and by Presidential candidates in debate forums, yet the
moderators and talk show hosts don't even state the plain fact that
to say so is an entirely non-reality.
It's really scary to know that obvious lies are being told and sit unchallenged.
We are not giving Iran anything. These assets of Iranians were locked down
by America and its allies for no good reason other than to pressure them to
allow inspections of their nuclear programme. It's THEIR MONEY.
First of all, you are assuming we do not know that it was money in accounts that the US froze. It seems like you are assuming everyone was led to believe we were giving Iran's government $150 billion in the form of US taxpayer money.
Secondly, who are we giving the $150 billion to, Uganda? No. We are giving the money to Iran.

You thought what Iran did with our sailors was the proper thing to do? You Kool-aid drinkers are way to entertaining. Publicly releasing video of our sailors surrendering on their knees with their hands on their heads, and apologizing, is not proper. The scary thing is you people vote in our elections.
Iran has been *****-slapping Obama, showing no respect at all to him or our nation, chanting "death to America" all during the negotiations, firing missiles a few hundred yards from our ships at sea, using our captured sailors as propaganda tools, and you think it's just fine and dandy. I cannot wait until Obama leaves office and someone with respectability comes into office.

First of all, do you know how to read ?
Second of all, does it matter what you read
or only what politicians and tv hosts say ?
Please understand that there is nothing going on here except
the LIFTING OF SANCTIONS that were placed upon Iran.
Many countries are benefitting from the removal of sanctions
not only Iran. Iran's return to the fold sparks business bonanza for Europe
There is no expenditure of American money.
The assets that were affected by sanctions were Iranian assets.
Anyone who says otherwise is just plain lying or ignorant.
The Iran agreement was a large step forward and a peaceful outcome, I'm sure you will agree.
Peaceful where?
