ACT OF WAR: Official Iranian Government Plot For Military Strike Against Washington, D.C. Thwarted – With Video – UPDATED



Oct 11, 2011 14 Comments ›› Pat Dollard

By any definition, this is an act of war. Obama must recognize it as such, or risk impeachment and charges of treason which could result in his legal, constitutionally-mandated conviction, death sentence, and execution.

This is not a thwarted “terror plot”, this is a thwarted military strike. The military, in this case, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, can use whatever troops or weapons it chooses. The use of cartel members, their weapons and bombs, makes this no less a military strike.

Holder, in classic fashion that will probably be mimicked by Obama, is considering an act of war to be merely a criminal matter.

And let us not forget that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard IS the highest echelons of the Iranian government.

And let us not fail to realize that the Iranians knew that our Obama-opened southern border was precisely the best, easiest entry point through which to launch an attack.

Liveblog of press conference:

Holder just announced that this DC terror plot was an official Iranian government operation headed by the Iranian Republican Guards. He also said Iran was willing to pay the Zeta Mexican drug cartel $1 million to help. Holder also said “We will hold the Iranian government fully accountable.” Chicken Holder just literally ran away when “Fast And Furious” came up, ending the press conference.

Nice to see how Obama’s coddling of Iran has paid off. How will he handle this?

Fox News:

Authorities foiled an alleged plot that was directed by factions of the Iranian government to bomb the Israeli and Saudi Arabian embassies in Washington and a plot to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to the United States, Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday at a press conference.

A criminal complaint was unsealed in federal court in New York Tuesday and named Manssor Arbabsiar and Gholam Shakuri as the two alleged plotters, both with ties to Iran. Arbabsiar has been jailed in New York since September and Shakuri remains at large.

The complaint alleges that Iran helped conceive, sponsor and direct the plot. Holder called the alleged plot was a “flagrant violation of US and international law” and said the U.S. will hold Iran accountable.

According to the complaint, last Spring, Arbabsiar met with an informant from the DEA agent in Mexico posing as a member of a sophisticated and violent international drug-trafficking cartel. It was during these meetings that Arbabsiar allegedly offered the agent money to assassinate the ambassador for $1.5 million. Arbabsiar allegedly wired $100,000 into a U.S. bank account in August as a down payment for the hit.

Arbabsiar allegedly confessed to his participation in the alleged plot.

The two planned to use an explosive device to assassinate the ambassador, according to the criminal complaint. The alleged plot would have maimed others and damaged nearby structures in the surrounding area.

Shakuri, a member of Iran’s Qods Force, a special operations unit of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, allegedly approved the money transfer.

FBI Director Robert Mueller says many lives could have been lost in the plot to kill the ambassador with bombs in the U.S.

Arbabsair, a naturalized U.S. citizen who holds an Iranian passport, allegedly expressed disregard for the collateral damage that the attacks in Washington would have caused.

The two are charged with conspiracy to kill a foreign official, conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction and conspiracy to commit an act of international terrorism and other charges.

Before Tuesday’s announcement, Interpol — the international police organization — issued an alert obtained exclusively by Fox News that warned of plans to assassinate an ambassador in the U.S.

Holder said the U.S. government would be taking unspecified action against the Iranian government as early as Tuesday afternoon. Asked whether the plot was blessed by the top echelons of the Iranian government, Holder said the Justice Department was not making that accusation.

“This plot is a dangerous escalation of the Iranian government’s longstanding use of violence,” a State Department official told Fox News. “We consider this effort to assassinate a diplomat within the United States to be a flagrant violation of international law.”

    Bullshit. This is total misdirection from Fast and Furious using the boogeyman of Iran. Kill two birds with one stone. Show me the evidence.

    Barry gets Jewish money and support back and he gets Fast and Furious swept away. Too easy. We have committed numerous acts of war against Iran. Sanctions being one. Blowing up of Iranian military targets. Killing of scientists and support of Kurdish terrorists. This is the old FDR map showing Germany wanting to conquer the world.Now you guys believe Holder? Man y’all need to start thinking objectively.

    Finally Russia and China will not allow an attack on Iran. Period. They just vetoed an attack on Syria last week that left that trashbag Susan Rice crying

      you sure seem to hate Jews

    • The Shadow

       My point is Holder is playing neocons for fools. 

      These guys sit around and scenario how to stay in power. They clearly have been losing Jewish money and support(Please don’t tell me Jewish influence is irrelevant to next year). They have their tits in a ringer over fast and furious. 

      So they concoct this type of plot as  a way to keep the neocons off their backs, kill the fast and furious story and help shore up Jewish money media support. This stuff is never done for one specific reason. At least two sometimes three or even four make it even better.

      It is a game. All a game. The Iranians are not stupid enough to do this. They just released those two hiker spies last month and this is the thank you they get. The Iranian govt was not given once second of credit my the US MSM over the release. It was like those kids just landed from an un named country or government when they were released. That was disgusting.

      They help us and give us something we help them with a smear and an insult. Not my USA that I knew growing up. I believe in the old America of fair play and giving credit where credit is due. It was liking watching the old CCCP athletes at the Olympics. Yeah I wanted to beat em but when one of their athletes or teams was really good you had to give them credit for a well played match or event.

    Heck, Hold’em and Obeyme were probably paying the Zetas to do this- the Iranians were to be scapegoats. After F&F, you cannot trust ANYTHING Hold’em says. The opposite of what he says is probably closer to the truth. Of course, since Valerie Jarrett is Iranian-born, maybe Obeyme is an Iranian agent and Jarrett is his controller.

    First of all, Pat’s analysis is spot on. (Except it’s the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).)

    Second, while this may be a convenient distraction from the F&F scandal (and no doubt intentionally), that by no means makes Iran a “boogeyman”. The terrorist zealots running that theocracy have been sworn to the destruction of the West since the 1970s, and their forefathers before them for several hundred years prior.

    Anyone who doesn’t understand such basic facts needs to do some serious homework.

    Worst of all is when people invoke the warnings and admonitions of the Founders against “foreign entanglements” and “foreign adventure” in order to justify their myopic worldview when it comes to genuine and extremely dangerous enemies of our Republic.

    Are the Zetas and the cartels boogeymen, too? Of course not. If we refuse to act wisely, and this type of thinking spirals out of control, it’s going to get a lot of people killed.

    As for how Barry will handle this, he’ll do what he does best: talk (out of his ass).

    The ruling junta NEEDS their Reichstag moment…..this isnt it…..butt they are working on it

    • J_Delta

      Agreed.

  • Incredulous

    Shadow – China has said it will turn a blind eye if Israel attacks Iran. http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/features/china-will-not-stop-israel-if-it-decides-to-attack-iran-1.385950
    All deflection, although Bibi did say he wanted to attack before the clouds settle in. God only knows.

    Wow, where’d ya find the trolls Pat… they’re so cute, in a Marxist, “I refuse to see a threat unless Bush did it” kind of way.

    The timing, of this plot breaking (whether the plot is real or not) as Holder is handed a subpoena, is amazing – a classic “wag the dog” scenario. The question is, will everyone take the bait and just completely ignore Fast and Furious and its implications…?
