Who Killed Philip Haney? The Mystery Continues

Slain DHS whistleblower now under investigation for “contraband” and “possible violations of U.S. Codes.”

February 17, 2023 by Lloyd Billingsley 8 Comments

February 21 will mark three years since Philip Haney, 66, was “found deceased” in Amador County, California, killed by a gunshot to the chest. The victim was not the typical Sierra foothills resident.

Philip Haney was the author of  See Something Say Nothing: A Homeland Security Officer Exposes the Government’s Submission to Jihad, first published in 2016. The DHS whistleblower also authored Frontpage articles, “Deobond Attacks in San Bernardino, Sri Lanka,” “The Terrorist Ties that Bind,” and “The Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America’s Ominous Post-Election Statement.” The expert on Islamic jihad had been punished for doing his job at a high level. This is the man found deceased in Amador County.

In Haney’s RV, the sheriff found numerous thumb drives, a laptop computer, and other materials. Sheriff Martin Ryan turned these over to the FBI, which did not reveal what the devices contained, and the bureau remained silent on the case through 2021. Last year, the Amador County sheriff’s office told Frontpage there was “no new news” about Haney and that the case was closed. A month later, in March, 2022, more than two years after Haney was found deceased, the case was proclaimed a suicide.........

The FBI is now the American KGB, a squad of deep-state partisans operating above the law. Show the FBI the man and they create the crime through stagecraft and entrapment, as with Gen. Michael Flynn. In the case of Philip Haney, they target a dead man for further investigation by the federal CPB. The expert on jihadism got the same treatment in death he did in life – false accusation by a federal agency, and quite possibly a lot more...............To Read More....

 

TWA 800: 25 Years of Deep State Deception

By Jack Cashill July 14, 2021

On July 17, 1996, TWA Flight 800, a Paris-bound 747 out of JFK, blew up off the coast of Long Island. It seemed somehow fitting that James Kallstrom, the public face of the FBI investigation into the plane's destruction, would die two weeks before the 25^th anniversary. As a patriot, a Vietnam vet, and an outspoken critic of all things Clinton, Kallstrom once held promise as the insider most likely to come clean. He never did.

As to my own involvement with this story, until the evening of February 23, 2000, I was as naïve as a CNN anchor. Before that evening, I would have dismissed out of hand anyone who dared suggest that elements of the FBI and CIA would conspire with the White House and the New York Times to cover up the cause of so public a disaster.

February 23, 2000, was the night my education began..............To Read More...

Don't Be Fooled, Recent Coronavirus Data Suggests the Lockdowns Were a Colossal Mistake

By Matt Margolis Jun 29, 2020 @ PJ Media

In various states across the nation, there’s been a noticeable trend of an increase in coronavirus cases. While this fact makes the headlines, the detail that seems to get overlooked is the fact that deaths have declined. Florida, Arizona, Texas, California, and Ohio are among the states that have experienced spikes in cases but have maintained declining death rates or no spike in deaths.

How is this possible? Conventional wisdom suggests that a spike in cases should result in a spike in deaths, but that has not panned out. The protests and riots following George Floyd’s death have been going on for nearly a month now. Surely a spike in deaths should shave occurred by now. But so far, it hasn’t.

Why not?

According to Justin Hart, an information architect and data analyst from San Diego, “who” gets the virus is just as important as “how many” get the virus. “Right now the average age of infected cases has dropped nearly 20 years,” Hart told PJ Media.

White House Coronavirus Task Force Member Dr. Anthony Fauci acknowledged this fact last week:

“The overwhelming majority of people who are now getting infected are young people, like the people that you see in the clips in the paper or out in the crowds enjoying themselves.”

Why does this matter, you ask? Let me explain.

Coronavirus data says risk is low for most Americans.

Young people, possibly from the recent protests and riots, are likely behind the recent spike in cases, and that tells us a lot about why the data looks the way it does right now. According to the CDC’s current best estimate, the fatality rate of the coronavirus for symptomatic cases only are as follows:

• 0-49 years old: .05%
• 50-64 years old: .2%
• 65+ years old: 1.3%
• Overall ages: .4%

When you take into account that approximately 30% of coronavirus infections are asymptomatic, that drives the fatality rate down even further. “The risk of death for the general population of school and working age is typically in the range of a daily car ride to work,” notes Josh Ketter on Medium.

Professor Mark Woolhouse, an expert in infectious diseases in Scotland, led a study that determined current lockdown restrictions could be easily lifted as long the most vulnerable populations are left protected. According to Woolhouse, for the non-vulnerable population, the coronavirus is comparable to a “nasty flu.”

Lockdowns should have focused on protecting the vulnerable

What the data is clearly telling us is that the lockdowns were not implemented correctly. While there is a significant risk for the older, at-risk population, for those under 65 years of age, the economy could have been kept open. Schools didn’t have to close down, and “non-essential” businesses could have continued to serve the public, many of whom had as much a chance of dying from the coronavirus as they did dying on their daily commute, but the lockdowns kept everyone, including the young and healthy, at home. We could have worn masks out in public to help slow the spread and flatten the curve to prevent hospitals from being overwhelmed. Life could have remained relatively normal, and the economy didn’t have to suffer the way it did.

“We knew early on that younger cohorts managed very well,” Hart explained to PJ Media. “We should have let that group thrive to keep the economy going while protecting the vulnerable.”

Protecting the vulnerable is where many, particularly New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, went wrong. On March 25, Cuomo ordered nursing homes to accept patients regardless of their coronavirus status. Even back then, it was known that the elderly were more vulnerable to the virus, so having coronavirus patients in nursing homes allowed the virus to spread like wildfire.  Cuomo tried to cover up his deadly mistake before ultimately rescinding the order on May 11.

Nursing home patients represent a mere .46 percent of the United States population but account for approximately 43 percent of all coronavirus deaths. States should have protected them better from the beginning. Had they, we could have had a more strategic approach to the coronavirus lockdowns that allowed businesses and schools to stay open while quarantining the vulnerable.

The one-size-fits-all approach was a mistake

If school and working-age Americans understood that their risk of dying from the coronavirus was roughly the same as it is of dying during a daily car ride, do you think they’d want to continue the lockdowns? I don’t think so. Whether people realize it or not, every day they are making an assessment of risk as they go about their lives. It was true before the coronavirus, during it, and it will continue to be afterward. Is it really worth being afraid of living given the extremely low risk of fatality for a majority of the population? We should redirect resources to protecting the vulnerable and let the rest of us get this country working again.

The United States isn’t alone

Israel is also experiencing a second wave of cases that is mostly occurring in younger people. Israel did not experience the protests and rioting we had in the United States, but bars, beaches, and school reopened, causing a spike in cases, but, as you can see from the graphs from Worldometer, no spike in deaths.

America’s Senior Military Officers Must Be Held Accountable Under the Law

By Clint Lorance, Foreign Policy Analyst & former Army Officer February 11th, 2020

Each military service has its own court of criminal appeals. This is usually a panel of three uniformed field-grade officers in the rank of lieutenant colonel or colonel, and their job is to review the thousands of courts-martial convictions. They review cases for legal error, factual sufficiency, and sentence appropriateness.  Incredibly, a sitting member of congress, himself a former military judge, told me those courts are “check the block” and “have been for a long time.” 

In this case, though, the court stepped up and acted. I was surprised to see these sycophant Army officers do the right thing for once. Anyone who has served in the Army will tell you: senior officers are bureaucratic butt-kissers. The enlisted men and women, and the junior officers, are the ones who suffer.   The senior officers care about one thing and one thing only: their careers.......To Read More....

Trump Should Keep Shaming the Justice Department on Twitter

The Justice Department has taken the blindfold off Lady Justice so it can protect its political allies and punish its enemies. Courts and Congress have been powerless to shame them. If a few tweets are causing mild discomfort inside the department, the president should keep tweeting about this as often as possible.

Adam Mill February 15th, 2020

 

According to Andrew McCabe’s attorney, the former deputy director of the FBI should not be prosecuted for lying to agents because the Department of Justice has so many examples of unprosecuted lying within its ranks that it’s basically part of the culture.

 

“Additionally,” the New York Times reported on Friday, “people who are charged with lying to the F.B.I. are typically accused of committing the offense in the course of a criminal investigation, not an administrative inquiry . . . Mr. McCabe’s lawyers made the case to Mr. Rosen that other former officials were not prosecuted after they were caught lying to the inspector general’s investigators.” 

 

That must be frustrating reading for General Michael Flynn who, based in part on McCabe’s essential statement, stands convicted of lying to the FBI with no underlying crime. ..........So, in sum, the Justice Department is relying on a confirmed liar to testify about the importance and seriousness of telling the truth to the FBI............To Read More....

 

So no one who worked for Obama should ever be investigated?

October 6, 2019 By Jack Hellner @ American Thinker

Since January 2017, the media and other Democrats have talked about the Constitution, the rule of law, and piously intoned that no one is above the rule of law. Yet from January 2009 to January 2017, the Constitution and rule of law were effectively suspended for President Obama and those who worked for him. Here are some examples:

Trump did not dictatorially and unilaterally change and ignore existing immigration law. That was Obama, and Trump is trying to reverse Obama's unconstitutional action and enforce the laws Congress passed as his oath requires.

Trump did not sue states that sought to enforce immigration laws. That was Obama.

Trump did not threaten to cut off funds from Ukraine if they didn't do something specific. That was Obama and his vice president, Joe Biden. What's more, Biden said it on tape. That was quid pro quo.

The U.S. and Europe, in the 1990s, agreed to help Ukraine defend itself if it would agree to give up nuclear weapons. When Ukraine was attacked by Russia, the agreement meant nothing. Obama turned down the request. Trump didn't -- and gave them the weapons.

The U.S and Ukraine also have an agreement, a law signed by then-President Clinton, to cooperate on corruption. Obama looked the other way as Biden's son got a $50,000 per month retainer in a no-show job he knew nothing about. Biden himself threatened to cut off funds if the prosecutor investigating the company's previously corrupt dealings didn't get fired on the spot. The media didn't care about that, but it goes after Trump for looking into corruption.

Trump didn't take $1.8 billion of taxpayer money to bribe Iranian tyrants. That was Obama.

Trump did not charge eight whistleblowers with violating the Espionage Act nor did he sic the government on journalists. That was Obama. If Trump even uses the word 'spy,' the media and other Democrats accuse him of violating the law. Remember this?

Obama’s Legacy: A Historic War On Whistleblowers

As for Obama’s record, here’s what history will show: In his eight years in office, the Obama Justice Department spearheaded eight Espionage Act prosecutions, more than all US administrations combined. Journalists were also caught in the crosshairs: Investigators sought phone records for Associated Press journalists, threatened to jail an investigative reporter for The New York Times, and named a Fox News reporter a co-conspirator in a leak case. In Texas, a journalist investigating private defense contractors became the focus of a federal prosecution and was initially charged for sharing a hyperlink containing hacked information that had already been made public..

 The Trump administration didn't illegally spy on thousands of Americans, including on people surrounding his political opponents as well as on reporters. That was Obama.

Trump didn't use the media to spread lies about the Iranian deal. That was Obama, according to his loyal creative-writing minion, Ben Rhodes.

Trump didn't dictatorially stop a years-long investigation by the supposedly "independent" Justice Department into drug running by terrorists sponsored by Iran. That was Obama.

Trump didn't use the IRS to violate the freedom of speech and freedom of association rights of political opponents. That was Obama.

Trump didn't violate the nation's bankruptcy laws to reward political supporters. That was Obama, rewarding unions when he used taxpayer money to bailout GM.

Trump didn't use foreign nationals as an excuse to spy on and attempt to take out a political opponent. That was the Obama administration, in collusion with the DNC and Hillary Clinton.

The Trump administration did not illegally unmask names surrounding his political opponents. That was Obama.

Trump did not give U.S. uranium operations to Russia after his Secretary of State got massive donations for her foundation and her husband got huge amounts for a single speech from Russia. That was Obama.

Trump did not whisper that he would be flexible with Russia. That was Obama.

Trump did not give a stand down order to stop investigating Russian hacking before an election. That was Obama.

Trump did not allow people to die while concocting a lie about a video to protect his political power. That was Obama (and Hillary).

Trump did not violate separation of powers by illegally stealing money more than once to pay shortfalls for Obamacare. That was Obama.

Trump did not shake down corporations and set up slush funds at EPA, Justice and CFPB to be used for political purposes and to reward political supporters. That was Obama.

Trump does not look away when sanctuary cities and states refuse to enforce immigration laws that Congress passed. That was Obama.

Trump did not willfully and illegally withhold documents from Congress for years on Fast and Furious. That was Obama.

Trump did not have an Secretary of State who continually violated the nations security laws and then made sure that she wasn't prosecuted. That was Obama. Maybe that was because Obama himself violated the laws by corresponding with her on that computer.

Trump did not have a Secretary of State handing out favors for huge foreign donations. That was Obama.

Trump did not look the other way while people named Eric Holder, James Clapper, John Brennan, Susan Rice and others committing perjury. That was Obama. People associated with Obama were always above the law while the media and other Democrats lecture the public about no one being above the law.

For eight years most of the media cheered as Obama and his administration ignored the law and Constitution and for three years, they have been searching for a crime with which to impeach Trump. They print fake stories with anonymous sources to seek reasons to impeach. They act like the Obama administration was scandal-free to intentionally mislead the public because the only thing that matters is power for Democrats.

It is truly a shame that so few in the media, in collusion with other Democrats, believe that Democrats are above the law and intentionally mislead the public by creating fake crimes for Trump.

It is a bigger shame when Republicans want to be loved by the media and other Democrats and instead of wanting to root out crimes and corruption climb on board to attack Trump.

Thank God for Trump and his tweeting because if he was not so vocal, he would have been gone by now and the corrupt media and other Democrats would be well on their way to destroying America, capitalism and our way of life. Few Republicans have the gonads that Trump has to take the cabal on the way he does.

Party of Treason and Insanity

By Rich Kozlovich

On July 28, 2019, on American Thinker, the article Thomas Lifson posted the following article. What must Obama be thinking as Dems support Mueller’s contention that an ex-president can be prosecuted for crimes committed while in office? saying:

"Trump Derangement Syndrome is genuine and widespread mental ailment. It qualifies as an infirmity because it blinds those afflicted with it to the consequences of their behavior, leading them to harm themselves.  

Were the psychology and psychiatry professions not fully in the hands of the Left, TDS would be appearing the next edition of the DSM -- the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.  

The dead-enders among the Trump-haters now fervently believe that once President Trump is defeated in 2020, he should be indicted for what they irrationally believe is the crime of obstructing justice, even though Robert Mueller testified that his investigation was not hindered in any way."

For years the Republicans were called the "Stupid Party", and for good reason.  Their ability to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory has been almost uncanny!   Their stated goals were invaribly thwarted by RINO's, all of whom are bereft of real values.  Always willing to attack the conservatives in their party who stood for less taxes, less spending, less regulations, less government, anti-abortion - all the issues they ran on - all the positions they disvowed as soon as they were elected.  All in order to appease the leftists in both parties.  Ohio has two good examples in John Kasich, and now DeWine.

The Democrats were called the "Party of Treason", and for good reason, since all their initiatives undermine the American identity, the American culture, the American economy and the Constitution.  But they've been able to govern because they largely marched in lock step to the leadership's tune, whether you liked that tune or not.

But now we have the farthest left lunatics ever elected to Congress, and they're Democrats, and I like them.  Why?  Because they openly demonstrate their hate for America, and their open desire to destroy American values, culture, Jews and the Constitution are there, all out in the open, for all to see. They may be insane, but they're not hypocrits.

They aren't hiding who and what the Democrat party really stands for, unlike Pelosi and the old guard, and they don't care what Pelosi and that band of cowards who stepped and fetched for Pelosi think.  They believe they're the future of the Party. And they're right.  Although they personally may not be, the party was taken over by far left lunatics, which has been the goal of the left for 125 years.  And now it's here.

The Republicans still retain enough blithering idiots, like Mitt Romney and John Kasich, to continue being the Stupid Party (figuring out what they're really all about is a "fool's errand").   But the Democrats.....ahhhhh the Democrats.....they've graduated from just being the Party of Treason, to the Party of Treason and Insanity. 

I had forgotten about the grand jury headed up by US Attorney Durham who is actively investigating John Brennan over his involvement in spying on the Trump campaign, which continued after Trump was elected in some vain hope they could overturn the election.  All done illegally! 

The author goes on to say:

".........Durham’s grand jury investigating the role of John Brennan in enlisting foreign intelligence agencies in the plot to spy on the Trump campaign, and after the election, to bring it down?...........He also believes that John Brennan was the spearhead of the plotters.....".

Are we supposed to believe no one else in the Obama administration was aware of that?  Are we to believe Obama wasn't aware? 

The writer ends by saying:

"Conservatives like me tend to think that prosecuting an ex-head of state is a bad idea. It further criminalizes politics....." 

Which has been traditional rationale and thinking. But, has there been an administration that's been more scandal ridden with criminal activity in our life time?  Watergate was chump change compared to the many crimes Obama and his gang perpetrated on America.  That's why they didn't just "want" Hillary to win, they "needed" Hillary to win, in order to hide all their criminal activity.  Even though conservatives don't like the idea of prosecuting ex-Presidents, he goes on to say:

"our TDS-afflicted political enemies keep making the opposite case." 

The Insane Party is so deluded by their hate of Donald Trump they can't see the vipers they're creating that keeps biting them on the can.  Every one of the investigations they've instituted made the Democrats look as corrupt and insane as they are. 

As Derek Hunter noted:

"The drooling and incoherence will continue, as will the digging. Democrats know they’re drilling a dry well, but as long as they’re still drilling they can keep those on the hook from realizing they’re being hoodwinked."

But it really doesn't matter what they do, because it's too late.  It can't be stopped now.  With the Investigation by Justice Department Inspector General Horowitz involving corruption in the FBI, DOJ, FISA Court abuse, and their investigations into Hillary Clinton's e-mail abuses this is going to get ugly for the Democrats.

These investigations involving Brennen will expand to include Hillary, Clapper, Valarie Jarrett, Attorney's General Lynch and Holder, Comey, and Weissman, who are lawyered up for good reason.  Then there is an unending list of small players, all of whom have at least one bit of information that fills in the blanks telling a complete story of corruption and crimes committed by members of the Obama administration, possibly even Biden, and most likely Obama himself. 

What did Obama know and when did he know it?

Obama, with his speaking ability gives the impression of being intelligent, but he's clearly as dumb as dirt.  And Jimmy Carter thanks him.   That means Jimmy's no longer the dumbest President to have sat in the White House. 

The left is patient, and they're willing to wait until the Party of Treason and Insanity wins the Presidency once again, and with the Stupid Party as the opposition, that's always a possibility.  And when that leftist President is sworn in, the whole criminal gang will start working all over again to complete their insane goal of destroying America, as we know it. 

Prosecutions must happen now!  To stop this someone has to go to jail.  Big time jail.

Can you feel the Bern?

Who Ran Crossfire Hurricane?

Barr’s investigators should focus on John Brennan and Gina Haspel.      
           

by Jed Babbin June 3, 2019

Crossfire Hurricane” — the melodramatic code name for the FBI/CIA spy operation on candidate Trump and his early presidency — was run for the FBI by then-FBI Director James Comey, his deputy Andrew McCabe, Special Agent Peter Strzok, and a few others.
Then-CIA director John Brennan ran it for the CIA. Brennan had to have help, but who was it? A lot of evidence points to the CIA’s then-chief of station in London in 2016-2017, and now the Director of Central Intelligence, Gina Haspel...........

............Barr said that since he became attorney general he had been asking why the counter-intelligence investigation was begun and hasn’t yet gotten a satisfactory answer..........Durham will face the most determined stonewalling by the CIA on all of this. Both Haspel and Brennan have a lot to lose, so she will be fighting tooth and nail against any of Durham’s requests for documents and testimony. Durham, and Barr, will have to force the issue..........Barr and Durham have an enormous — and enormously important — task before them. They should not hesitate to go to the president whenever they are stonewalled by the CIA or FBI. His executive order is just the beginning of his necessary involvement in their investigation.............To Read More....

My Take - The fact of the matter is the CIA and the FBI no longer have the right to withhold or redact any document requested by Barr and his investigators.  The President of the United states has ordered them to turn over just about anything these investigators want. 

Donald Trump is the President of the United States, that makes him the nation's chief executive and the CIA and the FBI answer to him.  If they continue down this resistant path they're going to be fired, and if the President of the United States has to go directly to CIA and FBI headquarters to demand the documents they want - a lot of people are going to be fired and some may end up in jail. 

We need to get this.  The President of the United States can see any and every classified document in the United States, in it's unredacted form.  He also can declassify any document classified by any subordinate in the federal government.  That's the way it works.  He's the boss!!!!!

The intelligence community has been corrupted so badly they seem to have forgotten that.  The time has now come for them to start remembering things correctly....or else! 

And I disagree with Barr.  This is treason, even if it fails to meet the legal definition of treason. 

Fitton: Judicial Watch Uncovers FBI Knew of Hillary’s Abuses

The FBI knows a lot more about Hillary Clinton than it is willing to let us know.

Tom Fitton 29 May 2019

Judicial Watch has filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Department of Justice seeking draft copies of FBI charts containing information on potential “statutory violations” committed by Hillary Clinton in the former secretary of state’s use of a non-secure, non-government email server to conduct government business.

Judicial Watch is also suing for draft copies of talking points prepared by the FBI for its officials to use following then-Director James Comey’s July 2016 press conference, during which he recommended against prosecuting Clinton for mishandling classified information......To Read More....

The walls are closing in on Obama

April 24, 2019 By Thomas Lifson

The truth of violations of law by the Obama White House, long buried, is being excavated by two private groups.

Judicial Watch has obtained testimony from a top FBI official that Hillary Clinton's home-brew server emails were found in the White House. This means that Barack Obama's illegal handling of classified information contained in those emails is closer to being exposed. This implicates him in the same felonies committed by Hillary Clinton that James Comey falsely claimed "no reasonable prosecutor" would pursue.

Jerome Corsi Challenges Robert Mueller

December 6, 2018 By Jonathon Moseley

After weeks of talking with Special Counsel Robert Mueller about Donald Trump's supposed collusion with Russia, Dr. Jerome Corsi instead filed his own criminal complaintthrough attorney and former federal prosecutor Larry Klayman on December 3, 2018. We should remember that Klayman already got the prosecution of Cliven Bundy's family and associates thrown out for similar prosecutorial misconduct, working in support of the Bundys' excellent Nevada lawyers as legal strategist. Misconduct by the once-great Department of Justice is all too common. The unethical prosecution of former Alaska Senator Ted Stevens stole a U.S. Senate election from the Republicans in 2008.  That earned a tongue-lashing from Judge Emmet G. Sullivan in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on April 7, 2009.

But left-wing embeds within the DoJ took the wrong lessons from the Stevens fiasco.  They took it as a dry run, practice for stealing the presidential election in 2016..............
Mueller knows he is investigating a $12 million fairy tale told to Christopher Steele by Russian intelligence agents. Steele's "dossier" was paid for by the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton through Perkins Coie. Steele went to Moscow with $12 million to spend. Clearly, Russia's intelligence services eagerly supplied disinformation. The "dossier" was written, in effect, by Vladimir Putin and his KGB thugs.  Russia of course favors chaos and the weakening of the United States, and never favored one candidate over the other. As a result, we are now seeing that Mueller's investigation is the true conspiracy theory..........To Read More.....

The Real Problem With the OIG Report

George Parry June 17, 2018

It seems like a day doesn’t go by without some female high school teacher getting arrested for having sexual relations with an underage student. The story line is always the same. Ms. Hotpants either gets caught in the act or because her student paramour shares with the world the naked selfies that for some weird reason she just had to send to his cell phone. Invariably the teacher is quickly and unceremoniously condemned, fired from her job and arrested.

This sequence of events always seemed appropriate. But, having had the benefit of reading the recent report by the Justice Department’s Office of Inspector General regarding the FBI and DOJ’s investigation of Hillary Clinton’s unsecured email server, I now realize that I have been jumping to many unwarranted conclusions about the intentions of these teachers. Enlightened by the OIG’s careful and even-handed analytical approach, it’s clear to me that I have been too rash in attributing base motives to these women without giving proper credit to their side of the story.

To illustrate this point, let me apply the OIG’s reserved and non-judgmental standards to the hypothetical case of Teacher 1 and Student A who have been caught naked in a car parked behind the local Piggly Wiggly. Herewith is an excerpt from the hypothetical report by the Pleasant Valley School District’s Office of Inspector General:.........To Read More....

Revolt of CIA spooks over Egypt, Libya

BY: Bill Gertz

Intelligence officials angered by cover up of intelligence on Iranian, al-Qaida surge - Weeks before the presidential election, President Barack Obama’s administration faces mounting opposition from within the ranks of U.S. intelligence agencies over what career officers say is a “cover up” of intelligence information about terrorism in North Africa. Intelligence held back from senior officials and the public includes numerous classified reports revealing clear Iranian support for jihadists throughout the tumultuous North Africa and Middle East region, as well as notably widespread al Qaeda penetration into Egypt and Libya in the months before the deadly Sept. 11 terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi.  To Read More......
