Valerie Plame (Wilson) on Capital Hill.
March 18, 2007
I don’t think I have to spell out the reasons that Valerie Plame CIA covert operative status leaking was due for a way to go into a war with Iraq. Under false information, we [the American people] was possibly tricked into a war that we could’ve ignored and saved countless lives of the American soliders.
“For the first time since the 2003 leak, the central figure of the resulting scandal revealed her side of events that led to the conviction this month of a former vice presidential aide.”
She told a House committee that Bush administration officials had “carelessly and recklessly” released her status as a CIA employee, which was first reported by columnist Robert Novak. – CNN.com
Also, according to Tom Davis, Replubican representative of Virginia: “No process can be adopted to protect classified information that no one knows is classified, just as no one can be prosecuted for unauthorized disclosure of information that no one ever said was protected,” Davis said. “So this looks to me more like a CIA problem than a White House problem.” -CNN.com
Which to me, makes absolutely no sense. If your a CIA operative, isn’t it common sense that whether your on case or not that you identity stay secret no matter? Is there some sort of conspiracy corruption going on here?
This could possibly been started when Joseph Wilson – retired diplomat of the United States Foreign Service – wrote “What I Didn’t Find In Africa” in the New York Times, that showed how he never found any reason that Niger was giving out “yellowcake” – an ingredient that can be use for nuclear weapons – or Uranium to Iraq. Mr. Wilson also wrote that since the President still blamed Niger for selling uranium to Iraq could’ve been a lie to get the U.S. to fight in a war, which we are STILL fighting.
To sum it all up: Lewis “Scooter” Libby being convicted for perjury and obstruction of justice, only showed that their intentions was due to political motives.
Everything is just fucked up, man.
