Report: White House Ruins Terrorist Intel

White House Denies It Prematurely Released Al Qaeda Video, Hurting Intelligence-Gathering


A small, privately run intelligence analysis company says that a Bush administration leak has ruined years of clandestine work to find and exploit al Qaeda secrets on the Internet, the Washington Post reports.

SITE Institute, one of many private companies that troll extremist Web content and use secret methods to find unreleased material and release it early, against the wishes of the militants creating it, was the first to obtain an Osama bin Laden video last month.

According to the report, Rita Katz, who runs SITE, told The Post she turned the video over to the White House on the condition that it not be made public until the material was released on line by al Qaeda's own media wing.

Katz told The Post that by the afternoon of Sept. 7, the day she turned the video over to White House officials, it had been leaked and was appearing on myriad news Web sites and television networks around the world.
Rest of story

So an intelligence gathering method gets burned so that BushCo. can continue its fear mongering. How many times do they get to sacrifice National Security in favor of political gain?

Isnt pointing out a misspelled word critical of the bush admin in contrast to the op like buying a fish a bicycle? Maybe we should follow bush's example on our ecelectic reading materials? :)
Dee-doo-doo-doo-dee-dah-dah-dah is all I want to say to you.

I just think when you accuse someone of incompetence, you should have the decency to spell the word right and not look incompetent yourself. Now, if your not going to accuse people of incompetence, feel free to missppell all thw werds you want.

My point was there was no response to the op at all yet a post was made to criticize a silly spelling error-as if that were more important than the bush admin burning an intel bridge that could very well cost people their lives.

It was entirely on purpose. It was leaked to the media prior to Al-Queda releasing it to scare us and make BushCo look good. Just like the Al-Queda mole that BushCo outed and just like Plame. National security takes a back seat to politics for these guys and that is frightening.

I wouldn't be surprised, actually; I know Dubya and Cheney have been at war with the CIA and the rest of the non-DoD intel community ever since they dragged their feet on helping make the case for invading Iraq.
