President Joe Biden reportedly wanted to send Iran $200 billion “no strings attached” in the weeks immediately following the 9/11 terror attacks.

“Seems to me this would be a good time to send, no strings attached, a check for $200 million to Iran,” Biden reportedly said at the time, according to a report from POLITICO released Sunday.

Biden, then a senator, apparently made the suggestion as an attempt at a “grand gesture” to strengthen American/Iranian ties. He was immediately shut down by staffers (emphasis added):

The Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, which led to the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan, also helped improve relations somewhat. Iran, a Shia Muslim-majority country, did not care for the extreme Sunni Islamist government of the Taliban in Afghanistan and was happy to see the U.S. topple it. Iran’s government even reportedly helped fund and supply the leaders of Northern Alliance militias that the U.S. turned to for help in ousting the Taliban government. But U.S. President George W. Bush’s decision to list Iran as an “Axis of Evil” nation in his January 2002 State of the Union speech dealt a blow to the improving ties.

Biden, though, didn’t want to give up.

In the weeks immediately after the Sept. 11 attacks, Biden — known for a lack of verbal discipline — suggested to aides … that maybe America should make a grand gesture of sorts to a region often suspicious of its motives. “Seems to me this would be a good time to send, no strings attached, a check for $200 million to Iran,” Biden is quoted as saying. (The offhand suggestion did not go over well with his staffers, one of whom responded: “I think they’d send it back.”)

In a speech to the American Iranian Council following the 9/11 attacks, Biden “spoke of how ordinary Iranians had held candlelight vigils for the victims of the Sept. 11 attacks, and how the countries had cooperated to some degree in Afghanistan,” the report said. “Biden even invited Iranian lawmakers to meet with him, wherever and whenever they would like.”

Biden was vice president in 2015 when the Obama administration inked a controversial nuclear deal with Iran — an agreement later abandoned by the Trump administration when Iran failed to comply with stipulations of the deal.

As noted by The Daily Wire, “Some experts believe that Iran never truly complied with the boundaries set in place by the Obama administration, and the Trump administration dropped the deal and reimposed sanctions on the religious dictatorship in 2018.”

“This was a horrible one-sided deal that should have never, ever been made,” then-President Donald Trump said of the agreement. “It didn’t bring calm, it didn’t bring peace, and it never will.”

It was reported last month that Biden is seeking help from European allies to restore the nuclear deal.

The Obama/Biden administration also notably gave Iran $1.7 billion in Jan. 2016.

“On Jan. 17, 2016, the day after four American detainees, including The Washington Post’s Jason Rezaian, were released, a jumbo jet carrying $400 million in euros, Swiss francs and other currencies landed in Tehran,” The Washington Post reported. “That money purportedly was partial payment of an outstanding claim by Iran for U.S. military equipment that was never delivered. Soon after, $1.3 billion in cash followed.”

The fact is that you have had 6 years to bash Trump and now it is Biden's turn to dance to the music.

Shut up and accept what you've wrought.

Biden has been WRONG on nearly EVERY MAJOR FOREIGN POLICY AND NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUE.

And more than just tit for tat, this deals with Biden's bad judgment that we are going to have to somehow endure until he is no longer in the White House.

That has nothing to do with Trump.

Take your 'what about-isms' and shove them up your silly ass so deeply that it would take Biden's sticking his fingers up your nether regions to extract.

Go fish.

I sense that you were not born here, so you probably don't know U.S. idioms or colloquialisms.


Go fish - phrase meaning and origin

I am guessing that it refers to a children's card game: Go Fish. ".The player then gets to ask for another card. If the player to his left does not have that card, the person they asked says, "GO FISH!" The player then takes a card from the pile."

You don't have the answer to that question, so you should go and do a search to find the answer, 'go fish.'

In other words, you cannot verbalized a single failure or mistake. All you can do is copy someone else's opinion without knowing whether is it right or wrong.
 
Funny, just reading the title before even opening the thread one knows automatically it is coming form the likes of the “Daily Caller,” or “Breitfart,” or”Gateway,” or “InfoWars,” or “the Blaze,” or any one of the number of propaganda sites the MAGA militia think are legitimate

As I noted before, it isn’t any surprise that prior Top 40 AM radio disc jockeys turned themselves into millionaires preying off of conservatives, their so gullible

Here, I copied someone else's opinions.

You got a problem with them, take it up with them.

Biden:

Flip-flopped on the plan for a U.S. surge in Iraq that saved thousands of American lives.

Openly opposed the operation to kill Osama bin Laden, considered the hallmark achievement of the Obama presidency.

Approved a border wall long before President Trump ever advocate for it.

Opposed amnesty for illegal immigrants, then supported it.

Was derided by Obama’s own Defense Secretary Robert Gates as “wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.”

Touted himself as “middle-class Joe,” while raking in more than $15 million in the first two years after leaving the White House.

Flew multiple times to China and Ukraine to help his son Hunter secure multi-million dollar business deals.

The truly shocking story of how Biden used U.S. aid to have the Ukrainian government fire the very prosecutor investigating him and his son.

How the Penn Biden Center at the University of Pennsylvania was secretly bankrolled by the Chinese.

Seesawed on taxes — approving of a payroll tax cut during the Obama years, then slamming President Trump’s tax cuts.

Supported mass incarceration for minor drug offenders that almost destroyed the African-American community.

Lauded Sen. Robert Byrd, a former Ku Klux Klan member who opposed federally-mandated desegregation and civil rights, as someone who “elevated the Senate.”

Supports defunding the police by “redirecting” money from the enforcement on streets to education.
