On Suspiciously Convenient Timing

I am sure it is a coincidence that this report is coming out now. Pardon me if I am skeptical, given that these are the same agencies who got it completely wrong in Iraq. The first paragraph gives the game away:

A published report says intelligence agencies in the United States and Canada have warned there are signs that Hezbollah, backed by Iran, is poised to mount a terror attack against "Jewish targets" somewhere outside the Middle East.

Isn't it convenient that the very country the Bush Administration wants to bomb, is behind it all? The fact that Hezbollah has, to my knowledge rarely, if ever, operated outside of the Middle East, is now planning some undefined attack overseas, just when the Bush administration needs an excuse to attack its sponsor country, is just too much of a coincidence. Sorry. No sale.
