American pastor, Saeed Abedini proves money sent to Iran by Obama was for ransom.

There's new evidence that Obama's $400 million payment to Iran was ransom money. One of the hostages freed by Obama's timely payment told "The Intelligence Report" that their captors said they were waiting on another plane, referring to the money.

LOS ANGELES, CA (California Network) - An American pastor held hostage in Iran told Fox's "The Intelligence Report" that his Iranian captors said they were waiting for a plane before letting the hostages go. That plane was the one carrying their ransom money.

In January, Obama sent a plane to Iran filled with $400 million in various currencies. The same day the plane arrived in Iran, the Islamic Republic released four American detainees.


Did Obama pay $100 million per person to the Islamic Republic, a sworn enemy of the United States?

Saeed Abedini told Trish Regan, "I just remember the night that we'd been in a airport, just take hours and hours there. And I asked one of the police that was with us, that, why are you not letting us to go to the.plane? And he told me we are waiting for another plane, and if that plane take off, then we're going to let you go."

He added, "He told us you're going to be there for 20 minutes. But it took like hours and hours. We slept at the airport, and when I asked them why you don't let us go, because the plane was there, pilot was there, everyone was ready that we leave the country, they said we are waiting for another plane, and until that plane doesn't come, we never let you go."

The interview suggests the Iranians understood the plane to be delivering ransom money.

Obama has insisted the money was to settle a debt owed to Iran since 1979. In 1979, Iran paid for an order of military equipment which was never delivered because the revolution broke out. After the revolution, the U.S. withheld the equipment and the money. No administration has been willing to return the money to Iran, until Obama.

So either Obama is paying ransoms to our enemies, or Obama is paying back debts to our enemies. Both strategies are absurd, but it seems nobody cares enough to hold our Manchurian candidate accountable, so there's little wonder why he does the things he does.
