Plot to assassinate Obama foiled in Turkey

ISTANBUL, Turkey (CNN) -- U.S. officials have taken "very seriously" a plot to assassinate President Barack Obama involving a Syrian man who was arrested late last week in Turkey, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

But the officials strongly cautioned that American presidents are frequent targets of threats that are all watched very carefully, and in this case the alleged plotter did not appear to get anywhere close to Obama during his European tour.

The officials also noted that while Obama gets more threats than usual as the first African-American U.S. president, this particular threat did not force any change to his schedule.

"Life goes on," said one of the officials familiar with the matter, who suggested the threat may be getting more attention because there has been a heavy international focus on Obama's first overseas trip since taking office.

White House officials declined to comment on the matter, citing a policy of not talking about security and threats around the president. U.S. Secret Service officials spoke only briefly about the case.

1. "Life goes on," ...true enough...

I am quite certain our presidents receive the very highest security possible...but if they didn't accept a bit of that "life goes on" mentality, they would never get anything done.

2. From the looks of it.....President Obama is very Precious to the Cause of Peace

Unfortunately, that makes him a target for the War Mongers/Deranged

I hope and pray this man lives out the Goal of GeoPeace

He is the Knight to save our ASSES from the Dark Forces...those that care not for our children....much less...Theirs....
