$1.7 Billion to Iran From the U.S. Treasury

No big whup. America is just funding a terrorist state to the tune of $1.7 billion:

The Obama administration acknowledged Tuesday that a $1.7 billion transfer to Iran earlier this year was paid entirely in foreign hard currency.

An initial $400 million delivery was sent to Tehran Jan. 17, the same day Iran agreed to release four American prisoners. Congressional officials told the Wall Street Journal that the remaining $1.3 billion was paid in two more installments delivered on Jan. 22 and Feb. 5.

But don’t say Barack Obama is anti-American and anti-Israel. Don’t you dare say that.
