They were supposedly planning to collaterally take out many Americans too.

They´re not even great at spin. Sure, this takes some heat off right now, but the digging into the various Mexico covert ops by congress has just started and won´t stop unless it turns out that Issa himself was involved in planning the attack on the Israeli embassy. Which is unlikely.

And how exactly does this fit into their “engagement” with Iran? Perhaps all that talk about “unconditional talks”, etc. didn´t really have the intended effect, huh?

Sure, this whole affair is kind of bizarre, but it´s bizarre enough to be real. I´ll reserve judgement until more information is in the public domain.

Roger Roger.....Focus on the F&F. Don’t allow them to change focus. You know the pu$$y in chief will not respond to Iranian act of war.

There is even no need to focus on it at every moment. It´s not as if it goes away if the news focus shifts away for a month or two.

Indeed, arming Mexican drug cartels seems even more outrageous if those cartels are being approached by foreign security operatives to conduct terror strikes in the Us.

If this guy believes Iran must pay, I suggest his country fly some jets over to Tehran and drop some bombs.

If I remember correctly Israel asked for W’s permission to take out the Iran nuke sights and W got pissed.

I think, eventually we are going to end up in a war with Iran, and considering each day brings them closer to a nuclear capability, the sooner the better.

But maybe we should wait until we have a real Commander-in-Chief, not some idiot who wants to apologize to Japan for bombing them. One would think that someone who supposedly spent time in Hawaii might have, along the way, have heard of Pearl Harbor?
