U.S. Ties Iran to Assassination Plot Against Saudi Diplomat on U.S. Soil

At a press conference addressing issues regarding the failed anti-gun running 'Operation Fast and Furious', and U.S. Attorney General Holder's possible lying to Congress about when he knew about it, Holder used the Press Conference to deflect attention. U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry was murdered and guns from this operation were found at the scene. Holder and other Justice Department officials are being subpoened regaridng the botched operation. U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry was murdered and guns from the operation were found at the scene.

At the end of the press conference Holder announced there has been a Iranian government-backed plot to kill to kill Adel al-Jubeir, the Saudi Arabian Ambassador to the U.S. There's no doubt that if thie plot had succeeded it would be an 'act of war'. Some are saying the Pentagon and Defense Department should be "doing something" while others are saying this isn't a 'tripwire' for military action and the Justice Department should be handling this.

As reported on Fox News, Texas Congressman Poe said, "We have to do something." Yes, Congressman, we've had to "do something" for a long time now. And we are doing something.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the U.S. would work with its allies to "send a very strong message that this kind of action, which violates international norms, must be ended." I told you we are doing something. We're sending strong messages. There's more.

We have warned travelers to be aware of possible attacks. And we're going to "enlist more countries in working together against what is becoming a clearer and clearer threat." Good, I feel better.

Do we want MORE assurances? the Treasury Department is also involved. They have imposed sanctions on five people who were allegedly involved in the plot. We're freezing their funds and prohibiting anyone here from doing business with them. I'm feeling even more better. Can we all now say WAY TO GO?

During John F. Kennedy's presidency attempts were made by intelligence elements in our own government to draw him into war with Cuba. They also wanted to strike the Soviet Union, i.e. Russia, with missiles. They even went so far as to stage phony attacks against Guantanamo Bay Naval Station, allegedly "killing" several of the so-called attackers (JFK and the Unspeakable, James W. Douglass. The provocations did not work but the American people believed they had actually occured.

In releasing this particular story at this particular time, I opine Attorney General Eric Holder and the White House are attempting to deflect heat that is being generated by the subpoenas being issued. In my eye, the entire legitimacy of our Justice Department is in question and, by extenstion, the White House too.

Holder is apparently a politician first, carrying out marching orders from his boss, who also needs to deflect heat away from fallen popularity.
