Riiigggghhhhht. Actually, are they using "foiled" to mean "bankrolled, provided safe haven to those involved, assisted in planning, and provided training and personnel for"? Because that definition would make their claims anything but a sick joke.

By the way, it appears Reuters has made their deal with the mullahs of Iran. Reuters looks like it is giving the mullahs' press releases uncritical print coverage in exchange for "access", just like CNN and Peter Arnett did with Saddam's goons.

They foiled a plot to attack themselves? I'm impressed.

Iran has one goal right now and that is to complete their nuclear weapons program. The last thing they want is to give W an excuse to take out their reactors.

Once they have completed their weapons development you can bet their attitude will change and they can start the real jihad they have been waiting for.
