| UK: U.S. Plot a 'Major Escalation' in Iran Terror Sponsorship |
| 2011-10-14 |
| [An Nahar] British Foreign Secretary William Hague said Thursday that an alleged Iranian-backed plot to kill the Saudi envoy to the United States is a "major escalation in Iran's sponsorship of terrorism." Hague said London was in "close touch" with U.S. authorities and would work to agree an international response along with the United States, European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... and Soddy Arabia to the U.S. charges, which Tehran denies. "There are indications that this deplorable plot was directed by elements of the Iranian regime with the involvement of senior members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' Quds Force," Hague told the House of Commons. "This would appear to constitute a major escalation in Iran's sponsorship of terrorism outside its borders," he added. "We are in close touch with the U.S. authorities and will work to agree an international response, along with the U.S., the rest of the EU and Soddy Arabia." Iran has strongly denied No, no! Certainly not! any involvement in an alleged plot by the Revolutionary Guards' elite Quds Force to kill the Saudi ambassador by hiring assassins from a Mexican narco mob for $1.5 million. U.S. authorities on Tuesday named two principal suspects: Mansuor Arbabsiar, a used-car salesman who is a naturalized U.S. citizen and is now under arrest, and Gholam Shakuri, said to be an Iran-based member of the Quds Force believed to be in Iran. |

| #4 North Korea lacks food and fuel. It doesn't have much to lose. Iran has runaway inflation, but it still produces oil and people aren't desperately hungry yet. |

| #3 FYI as per FREEREPUBLIC > NORTH KOREA MOVES ARMS TO THE BORDER. Unlike Islamist Iran, whom prefers to stay on the Military + Diplomatic defensive, + wait to be attacked + invaded, KIMMIE + REGIME/BOYZ have no fear striking first. |
