#4> “That’s the sort of thing they could have access to, funded by the Gulf coast coalition, so long as they honor their end of the obligation..."
How does that differ from "is theoretically possible, if a whole bunch of people who pretty much hate them decide to give them $billions anyway"?

#5All of this goes to show just how good of a deal the JCPOA was. It took 20 months to negotiate, it had everything the US had ever asked Iran to cooperate on, and Iran was not only cooperating but on a path away from extremism.
It was blown up out of pure spite, jealousy, and meddling from Netanyahu.
Right now, it looks like we're looking at a deal that is significantly worse in every conceivable way.

That's usually true. And yet... after WWII, the US paid a lot of money to rebuild Germany and Japan.
Do I think that's what's going on here? No, I don't. Nor do I think that the money is real. (If it is, it sounds like it's coming from the Gulf states - essentially "please stop blowing us up" money.)

#9That's roughly the same amount US has given Israel since 1948.
Probably not directly comparable, mind you, but still a funny coincidence.

A third of it is probably frozen assets [1].
