IAEA Says Iran Abiding by Nuclear DealHow would we know again NO inspections with OUT Iran's approval.
Only a person devoid of rational thought could describe the Obama admin complying with a 9 person tribunal with 3 US representatives, 3 Iranian ones, and 3 neutral ones the way you did.Interesting justification the Obama-Biden cabal is giving for helping Iran fund terrorism in Israel.
We'll see what the people think about this.
So much right wing media? Simp since the left controls over 90 % of the release of information how in the fuck do you suggest the right wing media controls the narrative? The bullshit you're pushing is so unbelievable only low IQ people will accept it.......going back to the Obama admin. You know.......just for the sake of accuracy........since there's so much right wing media horseshit being flung around the board.
Crucially, the United States halted a delivery of fighter jets that Iran’s pre-revolution government had already paid $400 million for. Normally the US would have returned the money if it wasn’t going to deliver the planes, since countries don’t just break formal agreements like that. But the US government had already frozen Iranian assets in the United States as punishment for the hostage-taking — and that included the $400 million.
The hostage crisis was eventually resolved in 1981, at a conference in Algiers. But the Algiers Accords didn’t resolve every outstanding issue — including the legal status of the $400 million.
Instead, the accord set up an international court, based in the Hague, to deal with any legal claims that the governments of Iran and the United States had against each other, or that individual citizens of either country had against the other country.
This court, called the Iran–United States Claims Tribunal, functioned as a kind of binding arbitration. To deal with cases, the involved parties could either negotiate a settlement out of court or take it to a panel made up of three US-appointed judges, three Iranian-appointed judges, and three neutral judges. The panel would then hear the case and issue a binding ruling.
This process, as you might guess, was very, very slow. By the time Obama’s second term in office began, the tribunal still had not come to a ruling on the issue of the $400 million. Sometime afterward, the Associated Press’s Matt Lee and Bradley Klapper report, the US government apparently concluded that it was going to lose the case — and lose big: Iran was seeking $10 billion in today’s dollars.
"US officials had expected a ruling on the Iranian claim from the tribunal any time, and feared a ruling that would have made the interest payments much higher," Lee and Klapper write.
So the Obama administration decided to settle out of court, opening up negotiations with Iran on the terms of the settlement. It did this at the same time it was negotiating the nuclear deal and the return of four US citizens who had been detained by Iran more recently.
In anticipation of the usual comments disparaging the source, but not refuting the information it provides, I encourage Vox's detractors to show, factually, the error of their ways on this topic.
You libs don't understand what facts are and are constant mislabeling things as facts. Facts are not temporary things waiting to be proven as drivel. You are describing a hypothesis. In any case, it's comical that you think something written in an article must automatically be taken as fact.It's not drivel unless YOU prove it's drivel. Until then it is the unchallenged facts.
LOL! This from a guy who states that a Vox article must be taken as fact.I'm having a hard time verifying that assertion. Can you help with something authoritative?
Zzz.......going back to the Obama admin. You know.......just for the sake of accuracy........since there's so much right wing media horseshit being flung around the board.

Us paying anything to those terrorist is to much. All our dealings were with the Shaw, not with crazed terrorist. Besides $400 million is chump change to what Biden is feeding them today.......going back to the Obama admin.

The US is not bound to the ICC…too bad for you.Only a person devoid of rational thought could describe the Obama admin complying with a 9 person tribunal with 3 US representatives, 3 Iranian ones, and 3 neutral ones the way you did.
