The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

bighairymike: This attack was likely funded by some of the $6B of sanction relief that Obama gave the Iranians in order to get them to sign the original agreement (plus $400M in cash).

Umm, the agreement that was inked in 2016? And the Iranians were likely to walk away with $10 billion through arbitration instead of the $6 billion.

But, sure, keen logic that Iran and Hamas waited seven years to use that money against Israel. Guess they could have waited another seven years and it would still be Obama's fault.


bighairymike: And lets not forget that Biden also restored $235M of aid to Hamas that Trump has put on hold...

That's a lie. Biden didn't give a plug nickel to Hamas. Funny, you seem to have nothing to say about the sanctions Trump waived to let Iran sell its oil.
