President Obama prevents another terrorist attack

[Sallow]

Again Obama did nothing the DEA that the guy went to got him. President Obama sits in his pretty white house and does nothing everyone around him does it. I just find it upsetting that this happened on Sept 29th and we are just now hearing about it. Can we say that they are trying to deflect on the whole fast and furious that is going on..

Yeppers.

Fast and Furious is all Obama's fault..but when terrorists or pirates get killed or captured, Obama had nuttin' to do wit' it.

How will US retaliate against Iran for alleged assassination plot?
October 11, 2011 - Military reprisal is justified, some analysts say. But initially the US is likely to take a diplomatic course, trying to further isolate Iran after its alleged role in an assassination plot on US soil.

Revelations Tuesday of an alleged Iranian-directed plot to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to the United States on American soil will plunge already-confrontational US-Iran relations to new depths. The initial US response is likely to be to reinforce efforts to isolate Iran in global affairs. The US accusations portray an Iran willing to carry out by proxy an attack not only on US territory but in the heart of Washington, and they are likely to move to center stage international efforts at corralling Iran’s nuclear ambitions, which have sat in the wings for months.

The alleged plot is enough to justify some form of retaliatory military action by the United States, say some national security experts. Others say the US is likely to limit itself to reinforced diplomatic efforts against Iran while the legal case against two accused plotters makes its way through the American justice system. “At a minimum, this is something that will be used in diplomatic channels to further US efforts to isolate Iran,” says Matthew Levitt, director of the intelligence and counterterrorism program at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. “I don’t know if the administration will want to do much more than that while this remains at the level of allegations.”

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said at the State Department Tuesday afternoon that the US is already consulting with allies and partners in the international community on “how we can send a very strong message that this kind of action that violates international norms” will not be tolerated. The US plans to take up the plot at the United Nations Security Council, according to one US official. That course of action suggests not only that the Obama administration assigns a high level of seriousness to the plot and its ramifications, but also that the US will favor a diplomatic response, at least initially.

The allegations, spelled out by US Attorney General Eric Holder at a Washington press conference Tuesday, point the finger at officials in Iran’s Al Quds Force, which US and Western intelligence experts consider to be the militant wing of the Iranian military. By tying the plot to “factions of the Iranian government,” Mr. Holder underscored the US position that the Iranian regime was behind the plan. Iran will be held “accountable,” Holder said, before specifying that retaliatory actions would be announced shortly by the White House, State Department, and Treasury. The alleged plot – which Justice Department officials claim never got past early planning stages, based on telephone and informant conversations –envisioned planting a bomb in a favorite Washington restaurant of Saudi Ambassador Adel al-Jubeir. Other ideas allegedly discussed included attacks on the Saudi and Israeli embassies in Washington.

When Holder told Obama about Fast & Furious, Obama said, "Great" and the check was written. Obama and Holder didn't stop it. It was their fault they didn't stop it because people were killed and there was no logical reason for that plan.

When the Pentagon briefed Obama about the upcoming attacks and what they planned to do about it, He said, "Great." He did well, but the CIA and Seals did the work.

It's not just Obama, but any president. That's just how it works.

WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Justice Department is accusing the Iranian government of trying to assassinate Saudi Arabia's ambassador to the United States in a plot that that has been foiled by federal agents. "The United States is committed to holding Iran accountable for its actions," Attorney General Eric Holder said during a news conference.

Charges stemming from the plot were filed in New York by the Justice Department.

The suspects were identified as Manssor Arbabsiar and Gholam Shakuri. According to a criminal complaint, Arbabsiar is a naturalized U.S. citizen and holds a U.S. passport and an Iranian passport.

ABC News reports that the plot would have also involved bombing attacks at the Saudi and Israeli embassies in the nation's capital.

Obama didn't do anything..............

Apparently those who treat Obama like Jesus believe he's also Jason Bourne...

BTW it's ambassador.

IMO, I wouldn't have prevented the assassination attempt...

Apparently Obama or the powers that be don't want Iran fucked with...

At any rate this shows how fucked up Ahmadinejad actually is..... You know the guy progressives believe is benevolent....

Trying to assasinate a Saudi ambassador on US soil?

Apparently you didn't read it well enough. But that's okay. Like many other Conservatives you don't get it.

The assassination attempt was going to take place in a restaurant filled with Americans. They were going to blow it up.

That would have meant about 100 or so dead Americans.

Correction.

The Patriot Act and Department of Homeland Defense thwarted the attack.


All programs instituted by BUSH and FOLLOWED by Obama.


Carry on

Too bad they didn't work under Bush. What is Obama doing different?

What do you mean it did not work under Bush?

He means Bush didn't feel the need to announce every foiled plot. Including a really, really, really serious one.

I think he meant it did not prevent 9/11. I am hoping he maintains his normal intellectual adroitness and says that so we can all point at him and laugh.

toppled Quaddafi? Really? I kinda thought that was mostly the Libyan rebels, with NATO air support. I wasn't aware Obama orders US ground troops and fighters planes and such into Libya.

I wonder if the Congress was consulted?

I have suspicions about the whole story....a bit too convenient....
but if it is legit, and based on the spike Obama got, albeit shortlived,
from the OBL episode,
this could be his best chance to be reelected.
He bombs Iran a year from October.

Hope not.

We both have suspicions.. How amazing is it that a foreign govt conspiracy to hire an assassin goes directly to an American undercover DEA agent in Mexico?

Supposedly the links go into Iran Intelligience groups. Are they that stupid that they can't find a REAL Mexican drug thug? There's something not right about this story. It's either entrapment, or an excuse to call for tougher sanctions against Iran..

Sorry -- it's just too stinky... Or maybe we've exported enough phoney Drug Thugs to Mexico to go with those military weapons from Eric Holder...........

I feel so safe with Obama / Biden at the controls.
