what happens in tehran doesn't stay in tehran. exposing u.s. rhetoric about refusal to pay ransom as empty as put a target on every american's back and convince terrorist leaders and rogue regimes that kidnapping and ransoming pays. >> thank you. chairman duffy, vice chairman fitzpatrick and distinguished members of the committee, i'm honored to appear before you today to discuss the dangers of ransom payments to iran. i would like to focus on the le gallonty of the $400 million cash payment as well as the subsequent $1.3 billion cash payment and how most importantly we could have structured these payments to limit iran's ability to support terrorism. with the recent one-year anniversary of the jcpoa, it is important as ever to ensure that iran is limited in its ability to support terrorist functions. make no mistake, though iran signed and implemented the jcpoa, it has not changed the criminal activity that has led financial institutions across the world to refuse to do business there. iran's unwillingness to change its destabilizie ining cond

embassy in tehran has been invaded and occupied by iranian students. americans inside have been taken prisoner. >> i'll be honest with you. i was scared. who knows what a mob could do? >> the american hostages were blindfolded, handcuffed and marched out on the u.s. embassy's front steps by the revolutionary students. in return for their american hostages' freedom, they're demanding the united states give up the deposed shah of iran from his hospital bed in new york to stand trial before a people's court. >> amidst the iranian revolution, american's ally the shah of iran is toppled. both the shah and the united states seem to be aloof to the revolutionary fervor. to the deep religiouses osity that. >> ayatollah khomeini became the enemy of the united states the moment he replaced the shah. he gave a series of sermons that condemned the loss of iranian sovereignty. >> when ayatollah khomeini saw large crowds gathering in support of the embassy, he made the decision, i'm not going to stand against this wave. i'm going to ride it. >> there has been a pers

who in europe was put on wooden tehran?and set over to what top-raking american official was there to oversee that cash? >> i am not in position to answer that because i was involved in the settlement. i believe my colleagues today -- >> do you know who was the top ranking official who was on the ground in europe when that cash was put on a pallet? who was it? >> i am also not -- >> you don't know. do you know? do you know somebody? do you have a name for me? >> let me address your concern. >> do you have a name for me? who was the top-raking u.s. official on the ground when the cash was put on a pallet? >> i would be happy to brief you in a closed setting. >> do we know when the cash was transported from europe to tehran? who is the top-raking iranian official overseeing that cash? >> i was not there. ?> does anybody know >> as i mentioned, the cash was dispersed to our representatives at the central bank in iran. >> was this someone who represent the military or an economic development? who was it? do you have a name? >>

how has that been received in tehran? >> i am sure it has been received very poorly in tehran.f course, this insult by the grand mufti of saudi arabia is really an answer to comments by week, sayinglast saudi arabia was not able to maintain, to organize the pilgrimage, and that those rights should be taken away from saudi arabia. it is a very tense situation, in the insults keep flying back and forth -- and the insults keep flying back and forth. i'm not sure this will be resolved in the near future. thomas: why is the haj pilgrimage such a source of difficulty? , ultimately we can boil down the problems of syria and yemen and so on to who is in charge of the holy sites. he firstmenei, when came back and overthrew the shah , the supreme leader today, it is an effort by the iranians to going back to being the leaders of the holy sites, and they are really trying to discourage, to tell the saudis that they are n ot capable of handling two m illion pilgrims every year. it as part of the political game of who is top dog, and in this case the iranians would like to be at and the sau

in the end we sent $1.7 billion in total to tehran.y are concerned a lot of that money went to the revolutionary guard. it was in cold hard cash, shipped on planes in various currencies and delivered to tehran. the treasury department says the money was owed to iran because it was frozen in bank accounts in the 70s and we returned it to them with tons of interest. joining me is retired lieutenant colonel ralph peters. what do you think? >> you have to differentiate between the first $400 million which was ransom and the reminder which to me was a massive bribe to prevent the iranians from embarrassing our president over the nuclear deal. more and more signs of desperation on obama and kerry's part that the nuke deal had to go through. iranian behavior in iraq and syria. essentially what the nuke deal did. it did not stop iran's nuclear program. it prevented us. it paralyzed us from responding to iranian provocations. martha: this money when you look back at the origins of it. it was money paid to the pentagon for airplane parts and equ

the payment provided tehran with nothing other than its own funds as part of the adjudication of an old settlement. we benefited as the prior panel discussed from an expeditious resolution of the remainder of the claims. let me move bond to emphasize a point that's lost in the controversy. the two separate tracks to expedite american priorities with respect to iranian behavior is neither unusual nor surprising. since the '79 seizure of the u.s. embassy in tehran, both penalties and incentives as a central component of a strategy designed to address the challenges posted by revolutionary iran. it is the logic of the deal that was made to release the hostages in 1981 and the toolbox used by president reagan, george h.w. bush, william clinton and george w. bush both utilized sanctions and economic incentives to gain cooperation from iran. using economic leverage has never precluded the intensification of sanctions or the use of military force or other measures against iranian actors or their proxies in the region. let me close by speaking to the issue of the unjust attention of americans a

thank godness we had that treasury department open in tehran so they could audit the bank's books, rightf cover-up that ought to be the subject of the next presidential debate. we ought to say does she support the cash for hostages aspect and the waiver of the sanctions, does she support the continued effort that john kerry acts like he's the president of the tehran chambers of commerce. let's let the american people listen to that for a while. lou: that was terrific good stuff. he also said today that obama owes an immediate explanation for what he's done to the american people and the congress. and the madness goes on. by the way, the madness go to the point that hoibl hillary cln loves the massive refugee in-migration and angela merkel who will be the one credit ited with the destruction of the european union. >> i think as you suggest, she is putting this refugee question, this migration question right out there for trump to go after. i think americans who followed what happened in germany and what they have seen what happened across europe, this is exactly what they fear. so if this

earlier this month, the regime in tehran deployed a russian supplied surface to air missile defense system around its underground uranium enrichment facility. this potent missile defense system was part of an $800 million deal russia signed with iran in 2007. that deal has been voluntarily put on hold because of a 2010 u.n. security council resolution but that hold was lifted after president obama's weak iran deal signaled to russia that it's acceptable to sell weapons to iran. this news is shocking given that president obama said -- if that is the case, why does iran need this potent missile defense system to protect the scientific facility? and where did iran get the money for the system? well, the obama administration and its negotiating partners agreed in secret to allow iran to evade some restrictions in the nuclear agreement. this reprieve was granted in order to give iran more time to meet the deadline for its start to getting relief from economic sanctions. so for all of these concessions, what exactly did the international community get out of the deal? certainly not peace of mind
