Israel never negotiates with terrorists - and for good reason. Biden should take a lesson.
Israel is hated by the whole world.
Not an example we would want to emulate.
The moral here is that crime pays. You can kidnap Americans and we will pay you cash. Better yet, we will subsidize your nuclear weapons program so you can hold us nuclear hostage in the future … for MORE MONEY!

When dealing with those bastards in Iran, the answer is ALWAYS “Fuck Iran!”
Maybe we should stop trying to freeze Iran's assets.
Our problems with Iran are largely of our own making. We are the ones who overthrew the Democratically elected government in 1953 and let the Shah run the country as an Autocrat. The Shah eliminated every other base of opposition EXCEPT the Clergy, and now we are stuck with a theocracy over there.
