Iran Plot’s WikiLeaks Link

[Swede]

If the Iranians needed a motive to assassinate Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to the United States they may have found it in a diplomatic cable leaked earlier this year by WikiLeaks.

In the April 20, 2008 cable, Ambassador Adel al-Jubeir relayed to America’s No. 3 diplomat in Riyadh that the Saudi king wanted the U.S. to attack Iran’s nuclear program. “He told you to cut off the head of the snake,” the cable quotes al-Jubeir as saying.

1. A two-fer! 1) Assumes Iran actually behind this farcical "plot", and 2) attacks Wikileaks.

Brilliant propaganda! The Daily Beast is really laying this on thick.
