On Tuesday, The Daily Caller<\/a> reported that the Biden administration has given Iran access to another $10 billion in previously frozen assets. Iran is the major sponsor of terrorism around the world. Now they have more money to buy weapons to attack American soldiers stationed in the Middle East. I am sure the people who manufacture weapons are thrilled–they just got $10 billion in new sales.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The Biden administration is extending a sanctions waiver that will allow Iran continued access to $10 billion in previously frozen assets, The Associated Press reported Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The four-month extension will allow Iran continued access to previously frozen $10 billion in electricity revenues for humanitarian aid,\u00a0according<\/a> to the AP. Critics of the Biden administration have said that giving Iran to access frozen funds will free up money in Tehran\u2019s money reserves and allow them to carry on sponsoring terrorism.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sanctions waiver will authorize Iraq to continue purchasing electricity services from Iran and give Tehran access to the billions in payments currently stored in the Iraqi banks, according to the AP. The Biden administration made assurances that Iran has only spent a small amount of the existing $10 billion and can only be used for humanitarian relief.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Does anyone believe that the $10 billion will be used only for humanitarian relief? Are we really that na\u00efve?<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

\u201cBiden administration doubles down on giving $10 billion sanctions relief to Iran,\u201d Richard Goldberg, senior advisor at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies,\u00a0said<\/a>\u00a0on X Tuesday. \u201cMoney is fungible. This is 100% budget support for the world\u2019s leading state sponsor of terrorism.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Iran supports a number of terrorist groups to carry out its will, including Hamas, which killed over 1,400 civilians in attacks on Israel that began on Oct. 7. Iranian-backed militias have\u00a0launched<\/a>\u00a046 attacks on U.S. troops on U.S. troops stationed in the Middle East since the Hamas Oct. 7 attacks.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/strong><\/p>\n
