“Passport breach being investigated”
By Bill Gertz and Jon Ward
March 21, 2008
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The State Department last night said one of the persons responsible for the inappropriate behavior was employed by an information technology firm headed by one of Mr. Obama’s foreign intelligence advisors.
The State Department this evening had not yet released the names of the persons responsible for the unauthorized searches but said two were employed by Stanley Inc. and the third was an employee of The Analysis Corp. (TAC).
Stanley Inc., a 3,500-person firm, is an Arlington-based information technology firm that this week won a $570 million contract to continue providing passport services to the State Department, which the company has done since 1992, according to Stanley Inc.’s Web site.
TAC is a McLean-based information firm that has helped the State Department automate the Terrorist Watchlist over the last several years, the company’s Web site said.
TAC’s Chief Executive Officer John O. Brennan is a former CIA agent who is an adviser to Mr. Obama’s presidential campaign.”

“Report: Iran buying missiles for Syria”
Published: 03/21/2008
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Iran reportedly purchased $1 billion in arms for Syria, including missile systems.
The report in the Ha’aretz newspaper Friday was unsourced but arises out of this week’s meeting in Israel between Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Angela Merkel, the German chancellor. Germany closely monitors the Iranian arms trade.”
