Report: U.S., Qatar Agreed to Freeze Iran From Accessing $6 Billion
You know who lives in Qatar? Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.
The Washington Post reported from anonymous sources that the United States and Qatar agreed to freeze Iran from an account holding $6 billion.
The sources said Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adeyemo told the House Democrats the decision:
But President Biden has faced mounting bipartisan pressure on Capitol Hill to prevent the funds from being used by Iran, amid scrutiny of Tehran’s links to Hamas. U.S. officials say Hamas has received weapons and training from Iran, but there has been no evidence of Iran’s direct role in the slaughter, The Washington Post previously reported.
Adeyemo told House Democrats that the money “isn’t going anywhere anytime soon,” according to three House Democratic aides, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe internal conversations. That comment was first reported by Punchbowl.
Do you know who lives in Qatar? Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.
Of course, WaPo calls it money for “humanitarian assistance.” We all know that is not true.
The Biden administration opened the $6 billion account in exchange for a prisoner swap.
Officials told everyone Iran could only take out the money with permission from the Biden administration.
Hamas receives most of its money and supplies from Iran. The regime has been accused of financing and planning the invasion of Israel.

I wouldn’t place too much confidence in Qatar keeping any agreements, even if they do suck up to the West.
We are supposed to trust everything this Administration tells us, right?
Team Biden thinks we are fools. Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh has all the login codes to the $6 billion debit card account holding the funds.
If I were that terrorist O wouldn’t get too comfortable. The Israeli’s have vowed to end Hamas and have shown they will hunt to the ends of the Earth to get it done.
As they rake in huge oil revenue because we stopped using our energy as a weapon. Way to go!
The extra revenue to Iran from Biden’s price boosting energy policies could be 10X that $6 billion.
Furthermore, emissions from the wars in Ukraine and Gaza may offset 10 years of US Climate Change efforts and cost thousands of times the numbers of lives supposedly saved.
Yeah. But if the money is there for Iran can they release it to some third party on behalf of Iran.
Qatari spokesman said the money needs to stay where it is because the Senior Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh who leads a lavish lifestyle in a 7 star hotel in Qatar with 24 hour around the clock protection for him and his family is not cheap.
the money was safer in a South Korean bank
the Qatars will just lend Iran the money
Now, about refusing to enforce Trump’s sanctions which let Iran sell 2,000,000 barrels a day to another of Brandon’s buds, China. So far Iran is +$50 Billion and counting. How about that money?
I have to say that never has anyone got so much out of bribing a politician like they have Brandon. Menendez only got a Mercedes and a few gold bars
If you believe this then you believe Joe Biden can make a coherent sentence.
Took them long enough. Now do I actually think that they will hold to this? Nah probably not
