Former Air Force Intelligence Agent Charged With Spying for Iran
The New York Times ^ | 13 Feb 2019 | Adam Goldman

A former United States Air Force counterintelligence agent was charged with espionage after she defected to Iran and helped it target her former colleagues, the authorities said.

In an extraordinarily detailed indictment made public on Wednesday, prosecutors disclosed that Monica Elfriede Witt, 39, gave the Iranians the code name and mission of a secret Pentagon program involving American intelligence operations.

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.

Hoisted to be sure. I’d even leave her hands free to give her a sporting chance.

[ Many Christian denominations now are wishy washy. They value PC culture above all else and so they fear appearing “judgy”. They steadfastly avoid claiming that Christianity is the path to heavenly rewards, that would imply that they think other faiths are somehow lesser. Can’t have that. And we can’t ask the flock to work hard at faith either, they want it to be accessible, they suppose. ]

Pretty much. That’s why I say the Antichrist can’t be too far off in the future.

Just saw one liberal kook this week claiming God was working through Barack. Yeah, maybe He allowed him to rise like Pharaoh. Good heavens. Spirit of antichrist.

How did she pass the basic security clearance? The appearance should have been a dead giveaway.

Why am I thinking Valerie Jarrett?

I always think about America's FIRST Muslim President, Hussein Obama.

I do not think so either. The mole for one reason and the face shape for another.

The media is referring to her as a former Air Force officer. She was not a commissioned officer. She was an E-6 Tech Sergeant, which of course is a non-commissioned officer. She was radicalized while stationed in the Middle East, working as a defense contractor. She’s a traitor to the country and in tbe old days would be shot.

Studying the culture helps to understand the language, puts things into context.

Come on gang, put on your thinking caps. Just skirting around the real questions:

Who was the Director of the FBI in 2012-2013?
Who was the Director of the CIA in 2012-2013?
Who was the Director of National Intelligence in 2012-2013?

THEN who was the president of the United states in 2012-2013?

DEEP STATE ANTI-TRUMPERS before there was a Trump or DEEP STATE - an egotistical prima dona, an ex-Communist, a nasty old man and a traitor.

What could go wrong?

Stop! No profiling! And don’t mention her resemblance to Zira, either.

Air Force? Maybe room service was a little slow one night and it radicalized her.
