And Iran has plenty of money, thanks to Barack Obama.
“Terrorist Chief: ‘As Long as Iran Has Money We Will Have Money,’” by Patrick Goodenough, CNS News, June 27, 2016:
(CNSNews.com) – The leader of Hezbollah, in a rare public admission, has boasted that due to Iran’s generous support, new U.S. sanctions targeting his group – a U.S.-designated foreign terrorist organization – will have no impact.
In a televised speech Friday, Hasan Nasrallah dismissed as “childish dreams” claims in some Lebanese and regional media about Hezbollah facing financial collapse as a result of sanctions legislation enacted late last year.
“We are open about the fact that Hezbollah’s budget, its income, its expenses, everything it eats and drinks, its weapons and rockets, are from the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Hezbollah’s official Al Ahed newspaper quoted him as saying.
“As long as Iran has money we will have money,” Nasrallah added. “Hezbollah gets its money and arms from Iran, as long as Iran has money, so does Hezbollah.”
Obama administration officials have conceded that funds released to Iran under the nuclear deal may benefit terrorist groups like Hezbollah, although they also suggested the impact would be limited as Tehran had more pressing economic priorities.
“If President Rouhani and his administration do not [use the freed-up funds to] take care of the people of Iran, they will have an enormous problem,” Secretary of State John Kerry told the BBC shortly after the nuclear deal was announced last July.
White House press secretary Josh Earnest, too, argued that while Iran as a sovereign country would make its own decisions about how it spends the money, it was “common sense” to expect the regime would use it to improve the ailing economy, rather than increase funding for terrorism or other destabilizing activity in the region….
Common sense for urban Western secular cosmopolites like Josh Earnest. Not for the mullahs.

Dear Mr Earnest
Get someone to explain the fundamental tenets of Islam to you. In the Muslim mindset, there is NO cause greater and more noble than spending money on Jihad ie waging war on the infidel.

And this is why you’re Press Secretary, Joshy boy – you’re not paid to think, you’re paid to parrot the official line. Be anything other than a mediocre idiot and you’ll find yourself blindfolded and with your back to a wall (figuratively, not literally).

Obama’s chief concerns during his time in office have been 1) to shield Islam and jihad-terrorism from criticism 2) to provide aid to jihad terrorists posing as freedom fighters.
This has allowed 1) jihadists to enter the US and commit terror acts 2) jihad terrorists abroad have increased their attacks on Christians and Israel.
A disaster of a president and an enabler of genocide.

Obama Hillary and Kerry will spend the rest of their time in the HELL they have created for us, They are disgusting an should be shunned, please shun then.

Iran print superdollars: dollars totally identical to USD.
Iran give these printed superdollars to Hizballah.

As long as O in office they will not only have money they will have what they need for nukes.
When listening to the congressional hearing on the Iran Deal witnesses said O turning from our allies to Iran and that he told Iran not to brag about the missiles they fire.
What a good Mussie he is.
common sense says
The enemy states clearly they will attack, the FBI, NSA and.DHS confirm it. People die.
