Iran Official Claims U.S. Republicans Asked to Delay Prisoner Release Until After Presidential Election

Ali Shamkhani, chief of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, claimed today that U.S. Republican officials reached out to Tehran asking that the recent release of four American prisoners be delayed until after the upcoming presidential election. There are very good reasons to be skeptical of Shamkhani’s claim. If it is true, it is completely insane.

What the fuck is so insane about the G.O.P. doing the exact same thing they did in the Carter-Reagan era hostage crisis? Nothing, that is what. Gawker needs to grow up and pull their collective thumbs out of their asses.
