Like clockwork, the New York Times has reported that Russia had bribed Afghans to kill American soldiers ... and President Trump ignored this intelligence and still wanted to invite Putin to the G-7 meeting this week ... all to compound the Orangeman’s recent poll slippage.
Like most Times stories, we don’t and probably can’t know if this reportage is true.
But, this sniper attack invites a partisan comparison ... OK? Now it was well verified that many of the IEDs that were used in Iraq to kill and maim thousands of American soldiers were made in Iran and supplied to the Iraqi insurgents. Sooo, how did the Obama regime respond to this Iranian evil? Well, as far as I remember, they negotiated a sham nuclear pact that gave Iran $150 billion in bank transfers ... and $1.8 billion in hard cash ... a bit more than a meeting invitation.
Did the Gray Lady draw a similar tut-tut back when Iran was killing Americans?
You know the answer.

Wall Street Journal and Washington Post have confirmed the report.
You imply that Obama "gave" Iran US Taxpayer money. I thought it was "unfreezing assets" that belonged to Iran. Am I deluded?
The $150 billion was Iranian money seized after Embassy takeover (including accrued interest). However, there were substantial claims against this amount which should have been paid first. ... leaving little if any left. The $1.8 billion in cash was ransom for US hostages ... plain and simple.
