Looks like that $400 million payment to Iran is off to a great start

The same Iran that the U.S. gave $400 million to this past week did this:

BREAKING: Iran confirms it has executed a nuclear scientist who gave the U.S. intelligence about the country's nuclear program.

And here is the State Department’s response via USA Today:

“The State Department, contacted Sunday, declined to comment on the case.”

That pretty much says it all. Under the Obama/Hillary foreign policy mindset, we continue to “work with” Iran as if it is a rational, humane state. Oh, and when it acts as the rogue state that it is, we hide behind a no comment.
