On Tuesday morning, a plane owned in trust by the Bank of Utah showed up in a very visible area of the Mehrabad Airport in Tehran, the capital of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
What was it doing there exactly? Nobody knows, reports The New York Times.
Under President Barack Obama, the United States has eased some of the long-standing punitive economic sanctions against Iran. Still, very little American — or European — economic activity is allowed inside the religious theocracy.
The Bank of Utah is certainly no Wells Fargo. The Ogden-based community bank has all of 13 branches including three in Ogden, two in Salt Lake City and one in Trementon (pop. 7,647). Its humble motto is: “Experience. Service.”
The bank’s senior officials say they are baffled.
“We have no idea why that plane was at that airport,” Brett King, a Bank of Utah executive in Salt Lake City, told the Times.
“As fiduciary, we must keep information confidential when it comes to the beneficiary,” he added.
King also called the Bank of Utah “very conservative” and promised to get to the bottom of the situation “if there is any hint of illegal activity.”

It’s complicated, but they have the passengers of Malaysian Flight 370.
Does this bank have any connection to the Utah-Reid bribe?
Is it a 777?
Well, people were wondering what the new paint job would look like.
Thighness was supposedly in a crash landing just inside Iran’s borders... remember? When she was gone for a few weeks?
What possible 'legal' activity could they be doing? The State Department has prohibited travel to Iran as a terrorist State.
CIA, all the way.
I blame the Mormons.
Because Cult.
Or something....
Or a diplomatic mission.
Calling for the Lord ?
Golly.
Does indeed sound like the old Air America. And remember the Irans are holding one of our supposedly retired ex CIA/FBI agents. Maybe the plane is leftover from the Utah Olympics? Was Mittens flying it?
This is a super secret operation of utmost US national security urgency to eliminate all of Iran’s nuclear weapon building capability.
Shhhh. Don’t tell anyone. Obama himself ordered John Kerry to order the NSA to order the CIA to execute this bold plan.
Shhhhh ‘ing from Florida. ping.
I think this is one of the jets Bank of America bought with TARP Bailout money. Bank of Utah likely holds the Lease.
Where is Brian Moynihan today?
Maybe The Daily Caller should use their investigative skills [if they have any] like one poster did here

No point in the State of Utah is over 330 miles from Ogden, the home office of the Bank of Utah.
“Or a diplomatic mission.”
There to pick up Harry’s payoff?
