Rush Limbaugh apparently believe the Iran plot was put out there to distract people.......
From the Fast & Furious scandal. Anyone else heard this?

"Rush Limbaugh is asking if the foiled terrorist plot Attorney General Eric Holder announced yesterday was a ploy to distract the American people from Holder’s role in a deadly Mexican gun-running operation. Holder announced the plot — in which Iranian forces allegedly plotted to hire a Mexican drug cartel to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to the U.S. in a Washington, D.C., restaurant — shortly after Congressman Darrell Issa threatened to subpoena him for misleading Congress about Operation Fast and Furious. “What a great way to sidestep the fact that he’s being delivered a subpoena for Fast and Furious,” Limbaugh told his audience on Tuesday. “That’s exactly what this is all about…No question in my mind what Holder’s press conference is about.”

Is it possible Rush is right that Holder, or someone other than the Iranian government, has overhyped the story for political ends? The evidence shows, surprisingly, that the possibility of a hoax cannot be dismissed out of hand. "

BTW, who else thinks that Darrell Issa is a crooked hypocritical scumbag, and is possibly involved in an anti-Obama set up?

2. If Iran did this, they did this to distract their people from
domestic woes..

4. I think they probably did.
Haven't seen any legitimate evidence of a 'false-flag' attack, and may never see any. Truth is, Tehran is slowly running out of time, and even the most hardcore mullahs know this..........

3. Despite what Rush and Issa say, I believe that the whole thing was overhyped,
And overplayed. Seriously, the whole thing sounds like a Keystone Cops routine, and despite the propaganda we hear about Iran, their intelligence service is not an amateur hour operation. This is a definitely a false flag operation, one meant to feed the anti-Iranian sentiment even further.
