An FBI agent named “Ali” comes out and writes a NYT op-ed against “torture.” Why do I not trust this guy?
This guy is going to be lionized by the left- though there’s already substantial doubt cast on his veracity.
I will retract what I said as I read more about him... will wait and see if he joins the Obama andwagon or writes a book.
To: SE Mom Interesting- Ali Soufan was one of the FBI agents sent to investigate the USS Cole. We know how well that investigation went, don’t we? Evidently our political elite never wanted to deal with that, maybe because it was sponsored by a state they would rather ease relations with than make war on?
The other guy Soufan is on and around which there is considerable leftwing monokeybusiness is Zubaydah. Zubaydah was all linked up with hezbollah...

To: SE Mom The Zubaydah case is the same case over which CIA man Kiriakou was charged for leaking the names of CIA interrogators to a NY Times reporter who turned around and gave the information to Zubaydah’s defense attorneys. These treasonous bastards in turn hired investigators to use that information to get addresses and photographs of CIA employees and they used these photos to identify the interrogators by showing them to detainees in Gitmo.
The photos of CIA employees ended up in the posession of the detainees. [I wonder if that Yee guy, the Chaplain, had acquired any of them because he was carrying material on the prison and the detainees and was going to take it to Syria, as I recall, when caught.]
Kiriakou’s wife was then asked to resign her job- which was an analyst at the CIA on guess which country? Iran.
