Lowest unemployment figures that are being reported from the last 10 years. Every smart person knows the US economy is suffering right now with all the tarrifs (which are being paid for by US consumers btw) that's making manufacturing expensive. So many companies are closing or relocating out of the US. Or is it the "best economy" that the rich have been given tax breaks in billions of dollars that will only profit the president and his cronies?

America is fcked if they elect Trump for a 2nd term

APOSTLECHUMA:
REJECTION OF TRUMP'S DEAL GIVES ISRAEL THE OPPORTUNITY OF BLOWING UP ALL THE NUCLEAR SITES IN IRAN..

Quelme:
Iran's assets were first frozen by U.S. president

Jimmy Carter in 1979, after revolutionaries
overthrew the U.S.-allied Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi 's administration and took American hostages. After the Iranian Revolution in 1979, the United States ended its economic and diplomatic ties with Iran, banned Iranian oil imports and froze approximately 11 billion 1980-US dollars of its assets.

Many of the assets were then unfrozen in 1981 after the Algiers Accords were signed and the hostage crisis. At the time of the 1979 revolution, the Pentagon re-sold some $400 million in Iranian military equipment already paid for by the deposed government, and the money was "placed in an escrow account".

Much of the frozen cash includes Iran's income from selling a limited amount of oil prior to the lifting of the sanctions, when Iran could legally sell oil but could not transfer the money back to Iran, because doing so was illegal under U.S. sanctions.

THE FACTS:

When Iran signed the multinational deal to restrain its nuclear development in return for being freed from sanctions, it regained access to its own assets, which had been frozen abroad. There was no $150 billion gift from the U.S. treasury or other countries. Iran was allowed to get its money back.

The $1.8 billion refers to a separate matter, also misstated by the president going back to before the 2016 election.

A payout of roughly that amount did come from the U.S. treasury. It was to pay an old IOU.
In the 1970s, Iran paid the U.S. $400 million for military equipment that was never delivered because the government was overthrown and diplomatic relations ruptured. After the nuclear deal, the U.S. and Iran announced they had settled the matter, with the U.S. agreeing to pay the $400 million principal along with about $1.3 billion in interest.

The $400 million was paid in cash and flown to Tehran on a cargo plane. The arrangement provided for the interest to be paid later.


Shows you know nothing about the nuclear deal.


EOD!!!!!

chewwie:

Please say what you know. Obama's deal involved handing Iran $130bn and $1.8bn in CASH! with which they used to fund terrorism all around the Middle East, Africa (Boko Haram) and Europe. And it was to be renegotiated in 10 years.
Trump left the deal and crippled their economy with sanctions, their currency is now of zero value, nobody buys their oil, Trump has all the aces and he's about to impose more sanctions on Iran.
DON'T LET YOUR HATRED FOR TRUMP BLIND YOU FROM THE FACTS!

sunnyeinstein:


I know sir, and thanks if you think its rubbish.
My point is that Obama could have placed conditions such as "if you do not enrich your uranium core for 3-5yrs and also give us this or that, then we'd release maybe $10b, and then if you do this we'd release that... you grab? That's why I think Obama and his negotiation team did not play hard enough. Thank you uncle

Righteousness89:

What u don't know you don't know!

Obama Gave out $150 billion cash to Iran..

That's the money being used by Iran in its nuclear and terrorist activities ..

The deal Obama made was a deal that could have crippled the USA ..

You don't advance your Enemies

Malcolm123:



you ar right ....Obama borrowed $150billion from IMF to give Iran so dat dey can build army to destroy america

Sprumbaba:


You are so uneducated. I am a business owner in the US and I benefited from Trump tax. Tax was not for the wealthy alone. It benefits businesses.

You lied again as the US economy lost 3 millions job 10 to 11 years ago. I was part of it and I got laid off as well.

Moreover, never state anything you have no knowledge about. Over 60,000 manufacturing companies moved to the US since Trump presidency.

Educate yourself

sunnyeinstein:


No mind them Jere, how Obama gave $150b to Iran and got away with it in congress still baffles me... Like was everyone blind when he opened the access gates for Iran? Crazy putting money in the hands of a nation who's stock-in-trade is sponsoring terrorist groups in other countries surrounding it.
Someone just had to pull the deal down (the Europeans always knew) its just not pleasing to them that its an annoying (to them, the best to me) Trump that shredded and trashed it.
Make the Trump deal or you keep your country under perpetual penury due to sanctions.

echelons:


The deal was a disappointment, and in truth, a disaster.

Who signs a deal that has 5-year bound, US sent $150B, $1.5B in cash to Iran.

The deal practically financed terrorism in Iran, yet after 5 years they can continue Uranium enrichment.

Obama had to sign the rubbish so he could have stability, rather than being bold and nipping the cancer in the bud.

Trump had to do what he had to do. You can't treat a terrorist nation with kids gloves.

All the European allies have understood this. China will not even be bothered as usual, Russia will milk Iran further before abandoning them too.

Nobody wants a radical holding nuclear weapons!

Crayfish09:


Honestly there are too many people with empty skulls on this forum. Obama didn't give them money from tax payers. The money actually belonged to Iran before it was seized by usa. Is this how you move about displaying your stupidity and ignorance?

EnkayDezign4:


Oga must you talk? even when you're obviously ignorant of the facts. smh


Trump is breaking all the rules to achieve selfish goals. How dumb could people be in supporting trumps sanctioning of Iran for sponsoring terrorism when on the other hand he's doing business with the worlds largest sponsor of terrorism (Saudi)?

Even his former defense secretary (all the sensible people in his admin. have resigned) said the deal was working, all the other 5 countries that were in the deal also agreed it worked. So why do you idiots think your glorified mistake of a president knows better?

tartar9:
America and bullying.
Obama's deal was very ok.I guess the next US president after Trump will also want his new deal.

21cents:


LOL.. bros don't try too hard to educate sworn ignorant fools. leddem keep living in euphoria of their foolishness

shomutuski:



By definition Kim jon un is a radical leader and he has a nuclear weapon. No one is doing shvit to him. Y'all don't know nothing about politics of power. It has never been about countries only interests.

golddust6000:
Can someone pls tell me why do America and Eu has nuclear and they don’t want other country to have?

shomutuski:


Broo most people here are just adding Hatred to this issue. I'm amazed at how many nairalander have become political analyst overnight claiming they know shvt. Obviously most are not aware that this issue has been around for long.

It's a very complex one btw saudi who wants to stifle Iran's influence in the middle east cus iran is of a different faith. Usa are more or less saudi dog in all of it. It's a war interest.

Righteousness89:
Trump deal is the Deal of the century..

The Trump deal is the deal that will bring Relative peace to the Middle East..

Nuclear Weapons in the Hands of Iran is Extremely Dangerous for the World...

The Downing of the Ukraine Plane will definitely bring about more Sanctions..
