LONDON, Oct 12, 2011 (AFP) - A former chief of Saudi intelligence said Wednesday there was overwhelming evidence that Iran was behind a plot to kill the Saudi ambassador to Washington and must "pay the price".
"The burden of proof is overwhelming... and clearly shows official Iranian responsibility for this. Somebody in Iran will have to pay the price, whatever the level of these persons is," Saudi Prince Turki al-Faisal told a conference on oil in London.
The prince, who has also served as Saudi ambassador to the United States and Britain, said the alleged plan to kill the kingdom's current ambassador in Washington was "so criminal, it's beyond description".

Announcement of this plan is by design folks.
It is all to deflect our attention from the Fast and Furious and Solyndra scandals.
Keep your eye on the ball and nail them to the wall.
Well it’s all settled, then.
I’m sure we can totally rely on our great ally, Saudi Arabia, to punish Iran for this outrageous insult to Saudi sovereignty.
Hussein obama is a liar. The plot never existed, just need to keep his numbers in the poll up.
greetings to all from Eurabia.
Iran has been killing American soldiers in Iraq and Afganistan for years and neither Bush nor obammy have done squat,
Though this was to happen in the U.S. the target was to be a Saudi Ambassador. Perhaps the Saudis will have the cajone’s to do something, anything real about it.
Go for it, Turki. May the force be with you.
Oh. Wait. You want US to do your dirty work for you.
I don’t give two s—ts about the Saudi Ambassador.

Agreed. I don’t believe them
Saudi “princes” are terrific sources you know. Muzzie to Muzzie here.
They are playing games and the Alphabets are supporting it.
Solyndra and Fast and Furious are not going away.
al-Jubeir is a very important figure to the Saudi royals. He is the former Advisor at the Royal Court and is a close friend of the Saudi King.
Obama needs a war to get back in the game and his Saudi masters are happy to oblige.
It seems that most of the ‘armed conflicts’ and ‘unrest’ in the world, bombings and assassination plots, etc., that cannot be traced to Shi’ites sources ($$$) can be trace to the Sunni sources ($$$).
Go figure ....
We, (the U.S.)saved the guy's butt. Now, we should "butt out". It's none of our business. If the Saudi's have the cajones to do something about it...let them. They have the "resources". Should be no more U.S. involvement.
Yep. I think the Saudis and Israelis would very sincerely like to see this used to take out Iran’s nukes. Obama is probably just waiting till next fall so he can take out a couple of aspirin factories and look like the hero.
A terrorist attack inside the United States is none of our business?
So, does he want daddy to intervene, or can the kids settle this between themselves?
“Somebody in Iran will have to pay the price” was similar to the language used by Holder
Do we know any of the details of this plot (how it was discovered, arrests made, etc)?
Unless I see some concrete evidence, I agree with you. This seems scripted.
Agreed
where have you been hiding?
