    Basic understanding of politics will tell anyone the US Prez doesn’t have the power to give Iran $300b from public funds as its not appropriated by the Congress.

    Its funds are provided by gulf and other countries’ private sector.

    Regardless, it doesn’t matter. Israel gets hundreds of billions EACH YEAR from BOTH US public and private sector. Unfortunately, the socdems and even many on the left only focus on the public sector part of it when most of the $ Israel receives are from private sector.

      Misconception : iran is getting american tax money.

      Wrong answer: actually us government is not paying this. This is paid by gulf countries and… (bunch of nerd stuff)

      Right answer: good. Unlimited genocide on amerikkkan tax money. Hopefully they pay 300 trillion dollars next time

        the order is the other way around, but it’s not clear to me if marshal planning Iran would even be inflationary
