The conflict between the US and Iran is an international equivalent of when the Scarfo crime family and Pagans motorcycle club went to war over control of methamphetamine markets in Philadelphia. Iran’s successful expulsion of the US in 1979, expropriation of Western petroleum interests, leadership of the resistance axis, role as a counterbalance to Israel and Saudi Arabia, and alliance with the BRICS are the real reasons why the US hates Iran.

(Reuters) – Iran is ready for further prisoner exchanges with the United States, Foreign Ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi said on Sunday, according to the official IRNA news agency.


Michael White, a U.S. Navy veteran detained in Iran since 2018, was freed last Thursday as part of a deal in which the United States allowed Iranian-American physician Majid Taheri to visit Iran – a rare instance of U.S.-Iranian cooperation.


White’s release came two days after the United States deported Sirous Asgari, an Iranian professor imprisoned in the United States despite having being acquitted of stealing trade secrets.


“If the possibility of exchanging prisoners exists, we have the readiness to free the rest of the individuals who are imprisoned in America and return them to the country,” Mousavi said.
