Obama admin: 'We should expect' Iran to use some of its nuke deal money to fund terrorism



Thanks to the President's glorious, perfect, and absolutely imperative nuclear deal, Iran will suddenly have access to $150 Billion in previously frozen assets. This is great news for terrorists and despots the world over because we will have absolutely no say in how they choose to spend it. In fact, as Obama's National Security Advisor Susan Rice points out, the Obama administration assumes that at least some of that money will go to fund terror operations.

During an appearance with Wolf Blitzer, Rice said that "We should expect that some portion of that money would go to the Iranian military and could potentially be used for the kinds of bad behavior that we've seen in the region up until now." The use of the phrase "bad behavior" to describe Iran's terrorism sponsorship may be one of history's great understatements and, to his credit, Blitzer was quick to pounce on just how incredibly ill-conceived this whole deal is. "Once the money starts flowing in, it's their money," Blitzer began. "They can do with it whatever they want. If they want to send a billion dollars in weapons to Bashar al-Assad, or a billion dollars to Houthi rebels in Yemen-" "They can't do that, Wolf," Rice interjected. "Because they'll still be under an arms embargo that would prevent them from sending weapons anywhere." That's when Wolf lowered the boom and made Rice look like a grade-A imbecile. "Well, what if they're not sending weapons? What if they're just sending money?" Blitzer asked. "Well...” Rice stammered. "They may be able to send money. Yes." Isn’t that just great. h/t Townhall
