The intelligence further stated that the cell is planning on staying at a five-star hotel in the city in which the attack is being planned.....

Glad they're not staying at a Holiday Inn Express, 'cause they might just pull it off.

Not until after the election. They won’t want to jeopardize Obammy’s reelection chances.

(1) Turkey and Iran are not real friendly at the moment.

(2) Turkey intelligence just outed Iran's terrorism plots within its borders.

Why hasn't Turkish military “disappeared” the Iranian terrorist? Is this their way of avoiding getting blood on their hands by hoping that the Iranians will back down?

If so, doesn't sound like a very assertive stance on protecting those within Turkey's borders.

It serves us right. We have been bombing and killing Iranians everyday. If I were Iran, I would do the same.

Any excuse to bomb the beejesus out of Iran is okay with me.

However, the failure we have as POTUS (POS for short) probably wouldn't do anything. So, then the next president (Republican, hopefully), will have to do something about it. And he better.

Thanks for getting me worried sick over my daughter and grandkids. They live about a mile from the American Consolate in Istanbul.

As much as understanding that Iran is dangerous is a good thing, I cannot predict the source, but I expect this is disinformation.

Turkey and Iran may comprise populations where one is uber dominant with Sunni Muslims - Turkey, and one is uber dominant with Shiite Muslims, Iran; and one is run by a theocratic dicatorship with a prostrated legislature (Iran), and the other is run by a democratically elected Islamic-party majority (Turkey), in Middle East geopolitical gamesmanship, they have been cooperating more than ever before in recent years.

Iran will not risk its warming relations with Turkey just to “strike at the U.S.”. I think, for whatever purpose on whomever’s part, this “warning” is disinformation.
