U.S. Claims to Have Disrupted Iranian Terror Plot

October 12th, 2011

Oh, well, if Tom Kean is on board, there should be no doubts at all about the veracity of these claims. *chortle*

Via: CNN:

The FBI and the DEA have disrupted a plot involving Iran to kill the Saudi ambassador to the United States and commit other attacks, according to the U.S. Justice Department. Two men – one arrested, the other at large – have been charged in connection with the plot, which the Justice Department says was directed by elements of the Iranian government.

The Justice Department says one of the men – Manssor Arbabsiar, a naturalized U.S. citizen holding an Iranian passport – arranged to hire for the assassination someone in Mexico who he thought was an associate of a drug trafficking cartel. The person in Mexico actually was a DEA confidential source who was posing as a cartel associate, the Justice Department says.

Follow below for the latest developments and read the Justice Department complaint (PDF).

[Updated at 7:41 p.m. ET] Tom Kean, former chairman of the 9/11 Commission said the alleged plot “surprises me.” Speaking to CNN’s Erin Burnett, Kean said the plot is “pretty close to an act of war. You don’t go in somebody’s capital to blow somebody up.”

    My eyeballs were bulging out of my head when I heard this BULLSHIT story. I had read something earlier in the day and I can’t to go to look for where the link is (I think dprogram.net) but jimminy cristmas, someone is DUMPING their U.S. Treasury bonds by the trillions, and along with the Mexico arms scandal, this is just so much more false flag bullshit that it served up to me as a laxative.
    These morons. Holder (hanging onto the credibility issue by a thread) and H. Clinton and her husband BILL should be under indictmend and sentenced to a jail in Iran ( which is a VERY MODERN country FYI) for what they done for the drug trade and for sending jobs overseas. JAIL!
    How long are these morons going to play the IRAN card?
    What utter fools? Who cares about a terrorist plot you dildoes.
    Why NPR gives Hilary and the rest of her like the microphone for one of the STUPIDEST things I’ve ever heard of the time of DAY, I don’t know.
    Give me a BREAK.
    We’re supposed to get freaked out about this?
    Hello!!
    Learn instead about who is dumping US Treasuries.

    Peace, and OWS, YOU ROCK
