The alleged Iranian plot to use Mexican cartel gunmen to assassinate the Saudi ambassador in Washington is one of the strangest, most serious terrorism cases to surface in years, a mix of seemingly credible evidence and unlikely scenarios that departs dramatically from Iran’s past record of global terrorist activity.
On Tuesday, a grim-faced U.S. attorney general and the FBI director accused Iranian intelligence officials in an alleged $1.5 million scheme to kill Ambassador Adel al-Jubeir of Saudi Arabia in a bombing at a restaurant in the capital.

The federal indictment [1] has escalated an already fierce conflict between the United States and Iran, alleging a brazen decision by Iranian officials to shed blood on U.S. soil and an ominous convergence of threats from separate worlds: Iran’s far-flung terror apparatus and the Zetas, a drug cartel founded by former Mexican commandos.
The evidence seems strong in some ways. Investigators tracked wire payments amounting to nearly $100,000 allegedly from the Quds Force, the foreign operations unit of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. They caught a suspected Iranian officer on tape giving orders to a Texas operative working with a supposed representative of the Zetas who, in reality, was a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration informant.
The alarming charges reinforce concerns among Western government officials and experts about signs of growing activity by Iran and its proxy, the militant group Hezbollah, in Latin America.

What information do we know about Iranian behavior that is relevant to the United States?
We know these things:
They held our embassy staff hostage for a year.
When we sent a rescue mission, it failed and those sub-human dogs dragged the bodies of our fallen boys through the streets while millions of screaming Iranian dogs cheered and defiled them!!! (Those two things, alone, are reason enough to annihilate those screaming dogs with a vindictive vengeance)!
In current times their president has publicly called for the destruction of "the little satan" (Israel) and "the great Satan" (United States). Let's show the dogs how to totally destroy a mortal enemy! They say they love death like Americans love life. Let's give them what they "love" and everyone will be happy!
At least when we killed Osama, we took his evil body to sea, sewed it inside a hog's hide and dumped it in the ocean for the crabs to eat. We should do worse to Iran! Destroy Iran and pave it as a parking lot for U.S. and Israeli military vehicles. Raise hogs there and let them feast on the bodies of our Iranian enemies. After what they did do our fallen sons they deserve no less!
iran is standing up against the bully that is america. they know what evil lies within us! george soros, obama, the feds...iran would do us a favor!
Iranian dogs defiled our fallen soldiers like the pack of sub-human savages that most Muslims are. They are say they love death; let's do them & the world a favor and give them death!
Let's call Islam what it is: a 2000 year late, disobedient to God, jealous copycat of the Jewish religion!
Not to worry people , Hillary will insure our safety (NOT). Why did we ever give them the right to vote? Make me another samich hussey.
1:33 yeah keep cheering as they blow up you, your spouse, and/or your kids
somethin' fishy about this story...many others have said the same.
maybe we need a "crisis"; maybe we need to get the story off "fast and furious" and "solyndra".
just sayin'.
