The recent massive payment to Iran stirred up a large amount of controversy and people critcizing Obama, and now it seems like what they said is right. Following the 400 million payed to Iran, which happened to go down on the day 4 American prisoners were released, more Iranian-Americans have been imprisoned in Iran. I think that the payment wasn't a smart move because as we can see, Iran is now using that as a opporunity to take more prisoners to get more money. Along with that, Iran is said to be supporting terrorist groups that the United States is going against, so the United States is practically funding their own enemies.
