Is that even possible? S Korea held it, is it in Qatar now? How would we


pull anything back? At best we might be able to disapprove any proposed release of funds for any transaction but at some point Qatar might say we are not acting in good faith and per the agreement and release it anyway. Even if we held the funds directly what does that do to our future negotiation credibility? Negotiate a deal, get the hostages back, then renege on it? I don't think that's in our long term interest.
