Flashback: Iran’s Soleimani Hired Mexican Cartel Associate to Assassinate Saudi Ambassador on U.S. Soil
Over the course of a few months, several clandestine meetings in Mexico planned strikes against the Israeli Embassy in Washington, plus and the Saudi and Israeli Embassies in Argentina. New opium trafficking lanes between the Middle East and Mexico were also charted.
In July 2011, Arbabsiar returned to Mexico to continue meeting with the DEA informant. He explained that his bosses in Iran had plans for more violence, in addition to the Saudi ambassador’s murder. On July 14, the informant told the DEA that Arbabsiar recruited four men to carry out the plot and would charge a total of $1.5 million USD. Advance payments of nearly $50,000 were wired to an FBI-controlled bank account in an overt act of validating the conspiracy.
In October 2011, operative Arbabsiar and an Iran-based member of the Quds Force, Gholam Shakuri, were arrested by federal agents, according to New York Times reporting at the time. The two men were charged with conspiracy to murder a foreign official, use weapons of mass destruction, and conspiracy to commit an act of terrorism, among others. Arbabsiar later confessed to the charges and reportedly cooperated with authorities.
While the foiled plot was deemed a success for the DEA, FBI, and Mexico City, others noted the United States’ luck that the person recruited by the Soleimani Quds Force agent happened to be a federal informant. The operation also solidified the fact that state sponsors of terror had a propensity to work with non-state actors in Mexico as violent proxies.
The effort to open a new smuggling lane between the Middle East and Mexico generated further concern. Today, cartels have demonstrably expanded to...

The Media's Worst Year
There were certainly a lot of candidates for the biggest story of 2019, from the red-hot economy to the Mueller mumblings to the president’s record pace in reshaping the judiciary. But, my vote for the biggest story of 2019 is the complete collapse of media credibility along with its continued poisonous influence.
The media sold its soul to the Democrats long ago, but 2019 was its worst year on record. Consider a few of the worst offenses.
Exhibit A
A Washington Post headline declared that slain ISIS leader and hardened terrorist Abu Bakr al-Baghadi an “austere religious scholar.” Nothing to see here other than another charming chap in horn-rimmed glasses. They simply did not have it in them to celebrate a major U.S. achievement that reflected positively on the president they hate.
Showing that they never learn from their mistakes, this week’s headline from the same paper declared that the world’s worst terrorist, Qasem Soleimani, who ran Iran’s terrorist and intelligence networks with the blood of scores of Americans on his hands, was Iran’s “most revered military leader.”
The media are going to need to open a reverential hall of fame to celebrate the likes of al-Baghadi, Soleimani, and the “peaceful protestors” who tried to Benghazi the embassy in Iraq. CNN, for its part, is doing its usual effort to paint this in the most anti-Trump light, with an entire story dedicated to the fact that President Donald Trump dined on ice cream when news of the strike broke, perhaps with a side of Chianti.
Exhibit B
This Is Brilliant.
Does Iran Want War With The United States?
Hell No.
President Trump Let Iran Know In This Statement, That We Are This Close, That We Are Willing To Take Out Their Top Leadership, And That Any Retaliation Would Result In The Full Force Of The Greatest War Machine The World Has Ever Known To Be Fully Focused On Destroying Their Complete Command And Control Leadership Including The Ayatollah.
A Second Amendment sanctuary movement is sweeping through Kentucky. Here’s why.
The crowd roared in support as Johnson ended his speech, as it did for every other speaker who warned of a perceived impending threat: the federal and state governments’ incursion on gun rights.
Letcher County is one of the latest Kentucky counties to pass such a resolution. It joined about half a dozen others, including Harlan, Leslie and Cumberland counties. Dozens of others have meetings or votes scheduled to consider making their counties Second Amendment “sanctuaries.”
“Tonight, I feel that we the people of Letcher County, and not just Letcher County but the state of Kentucky, and not just the state of Kentucky but of these United States of America, can stand up as law abiding citizens and proclaim that we are constitutional to the bitter end,” Johnson said to the crowd.
The resolutions have picked up significant steam in recent weeks. Multiple advocacy groups on Facebook have attracted thousands of followers. One group, Kentucky United, has garnered more than 70,000 members since its founding Dec. 10, and has spurred several local offshoots.
Letcher County’s resolution mirrors those seen elsewhere in the state. It expresses the “intent to uphold the Second Amendment rights of the citizens,” and “expresses its intent that public funds of the county not be used to restrict the Second Amendment rights of the citizens of Letcher County, or to aid federal or state agencies in the restriction of said rights.”
Johnson and several others in Whitesburg expressed support for the resolution as a practical defense against possible federal or state legislation that could limit access to or possession of certain firearms, ammunition or gun accessories. Johnson also warned against a potential Red Flag Law — legislation that would allow certain people, such as family members or police officers, to ask a judge to order the removal of an individual’s firearms if the person is deemed a threat to himself or others.
Asked whether the resolution could act as an actual legal defense against federal or state gun laws, Letcher County Judge-Executive Terry Adams, a Republican, said he believed the resolution could have some practical impact. Mostly, though, it serves to warn federal and state politicians of the political blowback that could result from supporting gun control legislation, he said.
“I hope this sends a message to our folks in Frankfort and our folks in Washington that we will not stand by and let our rights be taken away,” Adams said.
Legal impact?
Resolutions like the one approved in Letcher County do not carry the full force of law. In municipalities, resolutions are “merely declaratory of the will or opinion of a municipal corporation,” whereas “ordinances” are enforceable pieces of legislation, according to Kentucky Municipal Statutory Law.
Officials in Marshall County, where a 15-year-old gunman killed two students and wounded a dozen others last year, have made attempts to create an enforceable county ordinance to prevent local police and sheriff’s deputies from enforcing certain gun laws, though the county attorney there has warned the effort would likely violate state law and attract a lawsuit.
Even without a resolution, local officials, such as sheriffs, can already decline to use their resources to enforce federal...
REVEALED: Iranian Terror Leader Soleimani Was Also Behind Deadly Benghazi Massacre
Consider the following indisputable fact – Iranian terror leader General Qassim Soleimani planned and financed the 2012 attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya that led to the deaths of four Americans, including the first U.S. ambassador killed in the line of duty in more than four decades.
Now consider the next indisputable fact – then President Barack Obama rewarded Iran for this attack with billions of dollars, handed over much of Iraq to them, and gave them a green-light nuclear development program.
And now the next indisputable fact – current President Donald Trump, after getting confirmation of Soleimani’s role in the most recent attacks against U.S. personnel in the Middle East as well as imminent future attacks, didn’t reward Soleimani and the militant Iranian regime he was a part of. No, instead President Trump ordered the air strike that killed Soleimani.
That’s quite a remarkable difference between two American presidents separated by just a single election. Some might call it the difference between “America Last” in the case of Mr. Obama, and “America First” in the case of President Trump. Check out the information below and then decide for yourself:
