Feinstein calls for a return to the Obama years of appeasement:
-high-level meetings w/ Iran (like Kerry)
-oil/banking sanctions relief
-Supporting Iran’s request for $5 billion
-U.S. should engage in a full diplomatic push
And what does Feinstein demand from Iran?
Nothing.

Now, let’s put all politics aside & ask some simple questions from Sen. Feinstein:
If you truly are concerned about the Iranian people, why do you not call on Tehran to tap into the billions of dollars controlled by the regime’s dictator @khamenei_ir?

Sen. Feinstein, did you know Reuters reported in 2013 that Khamenei controls a major financial empire?
“Reuters was able to identify about $95 bn in property & corporate assets… roughly 40 percent bigger than the country's total oil exports [in 2012]”

Sen. Feinstein, while you call for incentives & financial aid for Iran, did you known that since 2012 Tehran has spent at least $16 billion to fund its terror proxies abroad while Iranian healthcare services have remained woefully underfunded?

Sen. Feinstein, did you know that U.S. sanctions are not preventing aid to Iran. The U.S. maintains broad authorizations allowing the sale of food, agricultural commodities, medicine & medical devices by U.S. persons or from the U.S. to Iran?
