Former Air Force Intelligence Agent Charged With Spying for Iran
N Y Times ^ | Feb. 13, 2019 | Adam Goldman

Posted on 02/13/2019 10:29:27 AM PST by BenLurkin

According to the indictment, she was working with members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The elite paramilitary group is known to carry out terrorist operations around the globe and has been sanctioned by the American government.

Prosecutors described how Ms. Witt provided a copy of her biography and job history in August 2013 to a person with ties to Iran’s intelligence services. That same month, she moved to Iran and, while living there, officials provided her with housing and computer equipment. Prosecutors said that she searched Facebook accounts for Americans and created “target packages” for Iran against American counterintelligence officials.

Prosecutors said that she worked for the Air Force from 1997 until 2008 and then worked as a contractor. As a counterintelligence officer, she was deployed to locations in the Middle East.

The Slimes left about the part where she was wearing a MAGA hat when she was being charged.

She should be terminated with extreme prejudice.

Would that be the same Iran that Obama and his lap dog Hillary said are nice now?

And what do you think Congresswomen Omar and Tlaib are up to? I’m sure they are steadily feeding anything of use to their terrorist buddies right from Congressional chambers to bombed out wrecks of homes somewhere in the ME.

No, she should be given a fair trial and executed immediately upon a guilty verdict to serve as a warning to others that may follow.

Does the NSA keep an eye on their metadata, do you think?

They certainly should.

But, a better way might be an IT Trojan Horse like Awan likely was.

It’s going to be hard to try her since she is still living in Iran. I don’t think they will extradite her.

I’m speculating that somewhere along the line she turned because of her interest in a a man.

Witt has evidently fled to Iran. But she can be tried in absentia. And she can sentenced in absentia. And that’s exactly what should happen.

President Trump, get this done. There is no down-side here.

I believe its time to sub contract a hit on her by the Masaad.

Actually, the best thing to do is suggest that she was a double-agent, working with Mossad on some project at one point. Iran will figure she’s some kind of triple-agent, and dump her in some river.

Is anyone waiting in breathless anticipation for the crack investigative journalists of the MSM to write the definitive story telling us what motivated this traitor.

That’s actually a pretty good idea. Start a few rumors here and there. And then let the Iranians “discover” some incriminating papers.
