#1 It was a ransom and it was in cash.

Further why was it in Euros and Swiss Francs...to make it hard to trace and harder to use to identify recipients.

Aha, so the empty suit in the White House is now funding Hezbollah and Al Quds?

If it were $USD we could track it pretty easily but I don't think we could record the serial number on all of these bills in such a short period of time.

And why are we just finding out about this? It happened in January?? The news makes it sound like it was last week...convenient way of keeping the bad news out of the way until after the DNC.
