Out of 9/11's Shadow (American traitor spies for Cuba)
The American Spectator ^ | 7/3/07 | Scott W. Carmichael

Posted on 07/03/2007 4:30:52 AM PDT by Renfield

~~~snip~~~

The successful investigation and capture of one of U.S. intelligence's prized employees was pushed deep inside the pages of newspapers -- if it appeared at all -- due to 9/11. The lapse in intelligence that led to those attacks overshadowed a rare instance when a mole was successfully outed.

~~~snip~~~

True Believer shows that catching spies within our own intelligence structure is a painstaking process. Carmichael, as much as he is able (given that agencies like DIA just can't let certain information out), walks readers through each step of evidence gathering and case development, while illustrating the challenges in convincing his higher-ups that Montes was a problem. What begins as a co-worker's hunch and Carmichael's quick understanding is followed by several instances of extremely slow realization by upper-level DIA officials and the FBI. Montes's clean record and stellar performance reviews fed others' skepticism about the possibility that she was a spy.

Why do we even use the word “treason” and why does it not apply to American-born spies, especially those who are directly responsible for the death(s) of our people?

One dollar says she will not serve more than half her sentence and she will be a lot more safe and secrure in prison than our own Border Patrol agents.

.

IRAN recently stated publically that:

“It’s now time for the world to start imagining a world without an America in it”

.

Former President CLINTON stated after the Attacks of 9/11 that:

“There may not even be an America around in 300 years”

.

For...
...the Enemy is now Within...
...and always has been.

I fear this is the more realistic question:

"I wonder which universities are waiting to hire her
when she gets out?"
