Obama Admin Ripped Over ‘Secret’ Deal Aiding Iranian Banks

It is said that the lifting of sanctions for Iran are actually a violation of the "Iran Deal". We know that Trump wants to go after banking that may have ties with terrorism. we know that Clinton blames Trump for wanting to increase Iran's capabilities. We know that Clinton believes believes that diplomacy through moderates in the region will sway the powderkeg. It seems that there are some blurred lines. Are critics right to claim that the lifting of sanctions fosters an environment that would speed up Irans capabilities of going nuclear? One side says one thing and does another and another side wants to stem it altogether.

Paul Ryan:
"Ryan said the move violated the nuclear deal.

“This story grows more disturbing with each passing day," Ryan, R-Wis., said in his statement. “It now appears that on the same day American hostages were freed from Iran, the administration not only agreed to the $1.7 billion cash ransom payment, but violated a key term of the nuclear deal by prematurely lifting ballistic missile sanctions.”

The WH:
"The White House downplayed the details, though, as old news.

“I'd note that this information is not new and was reported on back in January,” a National Security Council official said."

Treasury Dept.:
"The Treasury Department designated both banks as facilitators of Iran’s nuclear program in January 2007 but sanctions were not to be lifted until 2023.

“Bank Sepah is the financial linchpin of Iran's missile procurement network and has actively assisted Iran's pursuit of missiles capable of carrying weapons of mass destruction," said Stuart Levey, Treasury's under secretary for terrorism and financial intelligence (TFI), in his 2007 statement initiating the sanctions."
