The Ayatollahs have become emboldened by our weakness. They're poking a stick in our eye. They're threatening obviously Israel. They're threatening the region. They've become more dangerous because They've actually now received about $100 billion of funds into their economy, into their military. I think that was a very unwise agreement. I think it's proving to be exactly that. Has that $100 billion already been provided to the Iranians as part of the nuclear agreement or is that money that is, let's say in the pipeline? (03:12–03:22)
