Obama and keeping secrets, not if it will help his reelection

Good day all. I’m a bit late to this party, but better late then never. A few weeks ago, Al Qeda tried to blow up another plan with an “underwear” bomb that one of their suicide bombers was wearing.

Only there was a small issue for Al Qeda. The “Suicide Bomber” was in fact a double agent working for British Intelligence. This was a good thing of course. Not only was a bombing stopped, but we also got the bomb.

The problems began when the Obama administration started blowing their horns again. “Oh look at us! We saved the world! Isn’t Obama just astonishingly wonderful?” The person who leaked the story led the reporter to believe this was a CIA operation. The issue here is that the double agent wasn’t working for the CIA, he was working for MI6. ((Secret Intelligence Service)) Additionally, the Saudi Arabian intelligence service was involved with this as well.

Here are a few details of this screw up. First, from the Investors Business Daily:

Don’t tell anyone, but that al Qaeda mole op had zero to do with the Obama administration

Someone in Washington whose boss stood to gain from an election year story about alert intelligence operatives successfully protecting American voters at great personal risk leaked the heroic story to the Associated Press. The AP held the story until Obama administration sources said the CIA operative was safe.

First, Associated with terrorists Press actually did the right thing by sitting on this until the agent was safe. Normally they would have blasted it out all over the internet. I suspect they also thought it was an authorized story as well. Guess again guys!

But, it turns out, the mole was not a CIA operative. The Obama administration had nothing to do with the operation and, in fact, didn’t even know about it until recently. Somehow such details got lost in all the excited espionage news coverage about the bomb that didn’t go off.

The sting was, in reality, an operation by Britain’s MI6 intelligence service (see photo above of its unassuming headquarters tucked away in an obscure corner of London). It used a Yemeni native with dual British and Saudi citizenship with the cooperation of Saudi Arabia’s intelligence service.

First, Many thanks to that brave agent for infiltrating that terrorist cell and stopping the bomb plot. Second, thanks to the British Intelligence service. (I guess Mr. Bond was otherwise occupied) However, the Brits were a bit annoyed with the current disaster administration’s handling of this.

And the folks overseas who actually conceived and executed the risky work are none too happy about their loose-lipped American cousins trying to bolster someone’s domestic political standing by leaking the story prematurely, destroying the agent’s cover and future usefulness. And possibly betraying that agent’s contacts within Yemen.

Obama doesn’t care about any of that. It’s all about him. There is no one else that matters in his pathetic excuse for a mind.

Without the excited U.S. news coverage, the agent, who reportedly did escape safely once word was flashed about the impending AP leak story, could have still been providing further intelligence on the location of al Qaeda leaders in Yemen, which resulted in only one successful drone strike before word got out, resulting in the explosive demise of senior leader Fahd al-Quso.

This is the second time a massive intelligence resource has been compromised by the SCoaMF and his minions. The last one was the huge haul of records and computers we got when the Navy Seals blew Bin Laden’s brains all over his bedroom wall. ((Pentagon: Bin Laden mission nets single largest intel haul ever)) Once the RIF’s heard that, they promptly changed their locations and plans. The same thing happened in the early days of the War on Terror when the New York Times reported that we were able to monitor Al Qeda’s cellphones by taping into the phone systems here. At the time, something like 75% or more of all phone calls were being routed through the United States. We were getting a treasure trove of information, right up until the Times blew the operation in a huff of phony outrage. Needless to say, the professionals were not happy with the SCoaMF and his group of idiots:

According to Britain’s Guardian, CIA professionals are furious at Obama administration officials for leaking the information for obvious political gain.

The newspaper reported: “Mike Scheur, the former head of the CIA’s Bin Laden unit, said the leaking about the nuts and bolts of British involvement was despicable and would make a repeat of the operation difficult. ‘MI6 should be as angry as hell. This is something that the prime minister should raise with the president.'”

No surprises there. Obama’s contempt and outright hatred of the British has done a huge amount of damage. Hopefully the next president will be able to correct things. Meanwhile, people in Congress are rather angry. Here’s a story on the Daily Caller about Diane Feinstein going on the warpath:

On this weekend’s “Fox News Sunday,” California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, spoke out about a story from the Associated Press that exposed a secret joint operation between the U.S. government and the Saudi government, which foiled an underwear bomb plot by al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula.

According to the California Democrat, the leak is a serious one.

“A big one — this leak is serious,” she said. “This leak essentially — well, this operation — was closely held. It was CIA, FBI, Homeland Security and TSA. So, a limited number of people knew about it. General procedure would have the chairman and the vice chairman of each [of the] intelligence committees briefed during the attack, or prior to it. This was not the case, there was no briefing.”

Considering that the Obama administration doesn’t give a damn about anything but Obama, why would DiFi ((Acronym for Diane Feinstein)) think for one moment that His Royal Highness, Emperor Barack the First would deign to inform the Oversight Committees that this was underway? It isn’t as if DiFi was going to leak it to the Times like another U.S. Senator *cough* Patrick Leahy *cough* has done when the mood struck him. ((‘Leaky Leahy’ seeks sensitive info – again)) DiFi was in no mood to be forgiving.

Whoever leaked the information, she said, should be prosecuted, because the leak jeopardized the government’s ability to fight terrorism.

“Apparently, the leak came to an AP reporter,” she continued. “The government called, asked that the story be held, the story was held until Monday and then was released. What this does, it certainly jeopardizes the asset. It certainly jeopardizes our ability to relate to other countries, for other countries to help us, and it gives a tip off to AQAP [al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula] to be more careful about who they use as their couriers, as their bombers. So, the leak really did endanger sources and methods, and the leak, I think, has to be prosecuted. So, the investigation is being done, [and] hopefully can be concluded, and criminal charges will go to the Department of Justice.”

I really don’t see that happening with the current Attorney General and the current Master of all he surveys President. After all, this sort of information would have to be leaked with the connivance of people way up in the food chain, such as a certain SCoaMF. Again, this may have to wait until after the Obamanation is retired in January. (I think President Romney is going to have a lot of house cleaning to do next January)

The Democrats in General and Obama in particular, have done enormous damage to the military and intelligence systems in the country. The Gestapo Department of Homeland Security under Janet Incompetano Napolitano has spent more of it’s time spying on American citizens inside the United States than on Islamic Terrorists outside who want to get inside and kill us. Under Obama the entire law enforcement system has been aimed at people who criticize the SCoaMF instead of real criminals.

No wonder our former allies have started refusing to talk to us anymore.

Obama needs to go.

Remember in November!
