Reminds me of the Libyan hit squad targeting President Reagan story from the 1980s

NY Times The Nation in Summary; Libyan-Trained Assassin Squad Reported in U.S.

UPI Archives What ever happened to the Libyan hit squad?

Washington Post in 1987 CIA warned of Ghorbanifar as a “fabricator” The Central Intelligence Agency warned at least a year before Iranian arms broker Manucher Ghorbanifar became a key intermediary in the Reagan administration's arms sales to Iran. That Ghorbanifar was a "fabricator" who had intentionally supplied false information in 1981 about a Libyan "hit squad" being dispatched to assassinate President Reagan and his top aides, according to informed sources.
