OK in 1979 the Shah of Iran needed jets and military weapons to hold off a coup. he sent 400 million to his friends the US for this stuff. Unfortunately for him idiots seized a embassy holding 52 Americans and the US froze Iranian assets. just when the hostages were released the US decided to give Iran back their money ( with plodding from Tehran whining to the Hague), however not in dollars it went back in Euros and Swiss Francs, since "We" really do not want to give them ANY military ( since in 1979 we fell out of love with them also) anything. the "interest" on the 400 million is 1.7 billion which Iran got back including their original 400 million.This was a two pronged event while dorks were dealing with money others were trying to get the hostages freed, nothing I read showed they were communicating with each other.
