If I was cynical, i would say that this is a well timed diversion. Well timed to get the focus off of Fast-n-furious.

i don't think it's cynical at all. they're desperate, especially holder. it wouldn't surprise me at all if we learned later that it was shelved for later or timed in some way, (or even worse). i don't trust a single thing this scoundrel administration says.

Interesting. There's an article that will be published in the Washington Times (I think) about how the Iranians are using Iran Air to transport terrorists and arms back and forth between Syria and Venezuela. They have greatly expanded their presence and enlarge their missile base in Venezuela, which they use to move into Mexico and across the border.

Reza has been in D.C. for the past two weeks trying to get their attention about what the Iranians are doing.

This was an article by Reza published last week:

Barbarians at the Gate

America!! It’s time to wake up: There’s an Iranian missile base in Venezuela; The Iranian Navy is starting a mission in the Atlantic Ocean and into the Gulf of Mexico; Iranian missiles are being armed with nuclear warheads; Iran now has enough enriched uranium for six nuclear bombs; Iran will soon have the capability to destroy two-thirds of American lives with just one Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) attack — unless they are stopped.

For decades I have tirelessly tried to warn the West about the ideology and the agenda of the radicals ruling Iran. I have tried to help the West understand the determination of these radicals in their quest to bring about death, destruction and disaster to the world.

However, America’s leaders have allowed these radicals to arm themselves to the teeth and to continue developing their nuclear program unabated, which only emboldens them and confirms their belief that Allah is protecting them — that they are on the right path.

In May, I reported that the Revolutionary Guards were building a missile base in Venezuela. The leaders of Iran and Venezuela hailed what they called their strong strategic relationship, saying they are united in efforts to establish a “New World Order” that will eliminate Western dominance over global affairs.

I revealed back in July ( KAHLILI: Iranian missiles could soon reach U.S. shores) that the Guards have armed their naval vessels with long range surface-to-surface ballistic missiles; that the Iranian Navy plans to start missions in the Atlantic Ocean and into the Gulf of Mexico — off the shores of America’s eastern and southern coasts.

Yesterday, Reuters reported that Iran says it is ready to deploy its Navy near the U.S. coast. It is important to now understand that the danger posed by the Jihadists in Tehran is not only an existential threat to Israel, but soon it will be an existential threat to the U.S.

I also revealed several months ago that the Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, has ordered the Guards to arm their missiles with nuclear warheads. America needs to understand that we cannot fail. We cannot allow them to get the bomb.

They continue to defy four separate sets of UN sanctions and will soon be arming their missiles with nuclear warheads. Not only will they destroy Israel, but with only one nuclear missile armed for an Electromagnetic Pulse attack, they could bring about the demise of America, as promised by the leaders of Iran. Should that attack occur, over two-thirds of the U.S. population will lose their lives.

If that’s not enough, they have now announced the existence of Hezbollah cells in the U.S. and in the heart of Europe. Their only mission is to destroy the West. The radicals in Iran truly believe that the timing is right, that the time is now for the final glorification of Allah!

I'm that cynical.

The dog is wagging.
