The Daily News is reporting that the CIA is defending the first sister (the spy) that made chumps out of the FBI and the CIA.

It seems that 9/11 hasn't registered with the Old Boys Club yet.

Here is the story:

FBI appalled at CIA veterans's defense of agent Nada Nadim Prouty's lies

By James Gordon Meek
Daily News Washington bureau

Excerpt:

"But to CIA veterans, where Prouty was recruited as a covert operations officer in 2003, a talented spy merely fudged the truth to win her citizenship."

"Prouty, 37, admitted in court that she became a U.S. citizen by hiring an American to marry her. She then joined the FBI in 1999."

"That's not uncommon - people do it all the time," said a dismissive CIA source. The source strongly praised her undercover work in Iraq fighting insurgents, and said at worst she used bad judgment before joining the CIA."

"Several other CIA officers also shrugged off her pleading guilty to rifling FBI files for information on family members and a Hezbollah counterterror case in Detroit."

"As far as I can tell, she was just looking out for her family," another senior official said."

Can you even believe what an insane asylum, that large portion of the US government have become?

Nobody would even have had the nerve to say _anything_ like this about a Russian spy within the FBI during the Cold War, cause they would (correctly) have been fired or just disappeared quietly (with a little help from other agents).

Gee the Hezbollah murdering terrorists just want a fair shake so they can kill another 240 US Marines; actually, it's more likely the count will be thousands next time...
