Curious as to why Ahmadinejad even believes that Obama can magically undo our Supreme Court ruling that the families of victims killed in attacks linked to Iran can collect damages from the nearly $2 Billion in frozen assets. The former president is seeking election again and turned to his buddy, Barack, for help in returning the money instead of allowing victim's families to be compensated by Iran for their part in the attacks.

I am curious to know how Obama is responding to this. The only correct answer is to tell him, hell, no, that no president can overturn the Supreme Court's decision and that it would be wrong to give the money back to a terrorist state without compensating some victim's families. Plus, Iran has yet to prove they are upholding their end of the deal. In exchange for the money being released, they are supposed to fulfill a promise not to create nuclear weapons. They have outright refused to offer proof of such and will not allow anyone to do any kind of inspections of their facilities.

Why would this radical feel comfortable asking such a favor of Obama?

"It also comes as average Iranians largely have yet to see the benefits of Iran’s nuclear deal with world powers — something a discontent Ahmadinejad and other hard-liners could mine in any potential campaign against moderates.


In the letter, posted on a website associated with the former president’s office, Ahmadinejad focuses on the Supreme Court’s decision in April. The court’s 6-2 ruling allows families of victims of the 1983 Marine barracks bombing in Beirut and other attacks linked to Iran to collect monetary damages from Iran.

At risk for Iran is $1.75 billion in bonds, plus accumulating interest, owned by Iran’s Bank Markazi and held by Citibank in New York.

"It is the clear expectation of the Iranian nation that the particular case of property seizure … be quickly fixed by your excellency and that not only the Iranian nation’s rights be restored and the seized property released and returned, but also the damaged caused be fully compensated for," the letter said.

"I passionately advise you not to let the historical defamation and bitter incident be recorded under your name," Ahmadinejad added.

Ahmadinejad’s letter was delivered to the Swiss Embassy in Tehran, which has overseen America’s interests in the country in the years after the 1979 Islamic Revolution and U.S. Embassy takeover. Embassy officials declined to comment.

It’s unclear what steps Ahmadinejad expects Obama to take. There was no immediate comment from the White House regarding the letter.

The timing of the letter, however, is interesting as Ahmadinejad’s name continues to circulate as a possible challenger to moderate President Hassan Rouhani in Iran’s coming May 19 election. Rouhani’s administration negotiated the nuclear accord, which put limits on Iran’s atomic program in exchange for the lifting of crippling economic sanctions.

While Ahmadinejad previously served two four-year terms, Iranian law calls only for a one-term cooling-off period before he’s eligible to run again.

How Iranians would react to another Ahmadinejad run, however, remains to be seen if and when it happens.

Under his presidency, Iran found itself heavily sanctioned over the nuclear program as Ahmadinejad questioned the scale of the Holocaust and predicted the demise of Israel. His disputed 2009 re-election saw widespread protests and violence. Two of his former vice presidents have since been jailed for corruption."

Curious as to what libs think Obama should say to this guy.
 
Iran got OBama to hand over half a billion in ransom for some middle east douchebags claiming to be Americans. So he figures why not ask for more free stuff.

You think Obama governs using the law?
 
Iran is abiding by the terms of the nuclear deal and so are we. Only the totally dense were taken by surprise on this "ransom" which is actually their money we have been holding hostage for nearly thirty years. It seems some would love for the US to renege just for the Iranian hard-liners to crow that we cannot be trusted. We are probably never going to be friendly but critics cannot possibly prefer the situation we had when Iran had an active nuclear program and the pentagon was itching to launch another multi trillion dollar war.

Shouldn't have made the deal. Iran cannot be trusted and never will. How can anyone claim they are holding up their end when they insist that everyone must take them at their word? Not good enough. When it becomes apparent that they reneged on their promise, the left won't be outraged. You guys will defend them and say no one can blame them.
 
There is definately a link between the 400 million he gave to Iran and this ruling. FUCK OBAMA!

I know what you mean. So what if Iran broke international law by storming an American embassy. We should just give them whatever money of theirs we are holding.

And don't hold them accountable to the families of victims. Gosh, we only do that in America when government can go after big businesses with deep pockets. Shouldn't hold hostile countries responsible for their actions.
