An official report last month summarizing the evidence cited phone records, forensic tests, coordinated travel arrangements and even cellphone SIM cards purchased in Iran and used by several of the would-be assailants, said two officials who have seen the six-page document.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course, we can just file all of this away as part of the growing evidence that we are at war with Iran and have been since 1979. But all of the evidence that Iran was supplying insurgents with explosive devices in Iraq and Afghanistan wasn&#8217;t enough to provoke a response, nor was the fact that Iran was harboring Muqtada al Sadr and supporting the Syrian government in their quest to murder their own citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Now that the US bureaucracy is a target, someone might get upset, but I wouldn&#8217;t count on it. But, because this administration puts more value on the lives of their State Department employees than the troops, Iran may have crossed an invisible line.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Washington Post reports that intelligence agencies have uncovered evidence that Iran is targeting violently, US &hellip; <a title=\"Iran targets US embassy personnel\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=30142\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Iran targets US embassy personnel<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30142","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barack-obama","category-terror-war"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30142","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30142"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30142\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=30142"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=30142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
