TAKOMA PARK, Md. — A woman accused of acting as a paid Iraqi intelligence agent said Wednesday she is misunderstood and was only trying to help prevent a war in Iraq (search).

Susan Lindauer (search) told The Associated Press she was being punished because she got involved in U.S. foreign policy. She said her intent was to persuade Iraq to allow weapons inspections before the war and to get it to cooperate with the war on terror.

She's admitting she had the contact. Now she's just trying to spin her way out of a prison cell.

[Just mythoughts]

Does she now work for the JFKerry campaign, or maybe Hillry?

Lindauer said she was only trying to help

[...resistance groups in Iraq kill Americans and Iraqis.]

[dasboot]

The indictment alleges that Lindauer met with an undercover FBI agent posing as a Libyan to discuss helping resistance groups in Iraq.

I'm betting that meeting is the zinger. The other stuff is lightweight. I wonder how Shiela's doin'? Up nights?

[piasa]

From another article:

she acted as a spy for the Iraqi Intelligence service, and accepted $10,000 for the information she gathered.

This little money thing won't look good on the resume.

[dasboot]

Probably grooming her. She doubtless impressed them with her Andy connection. She ain't got the brains of a ice cube. (although an intellectual giant, she was, among her former employers)

[SAR_dude]

Her lawyer must be thrilled.

"Here Susan, try on this ball gag."

[Lawgvr1955]

By the picture, it appears she is enjoying her fifteen minutes of fame. I am amazed at this lib's (and other libs like her) hubris to believe that they have the brains and/or the ability to act as self appointed ambassador to Iraq. (Sean Penn is an example). Where did they get the idea that they are smart enough to do something that trained or experienced Foreign Service officers cannot?

These type of people have been told since birth that they are "special" and have misunderstood that to believe that they have an intelligence or ability we, the great unwashed, do not. Liberal superiority is a "mental illness".

[danamco]

Where did she get the $500.000 from this time??

[John Lenin]

I get the feeling Cards second cousin was setting him up with that letter. This woman was definitely on Saddams payroll.

"Lindauer described her gradual change from peace activist to self-appointed conflict mediator for the United States in the Middle East.

Lindauer said she was only trying to help.

"It is utter hypocrisy for government officials to pontificate about their own commitment to important projects and then reject or resist the participation of Americans in those projects,"

Lets see thats PAZ @10 dead a day. Cheep unless it's your relative.

Agreed, but how much can we depend on the FBI to tell the truth? If they have tapes of her conspiring that's one thing, but if it comes down to 'he said - she said' I wouldn't regard that as much evidence of guilt.

[Heatseeker]

I agree. If they were going to pop her on something serious, they would hardly have let her out again on bail.

If Suzie had any brains (which she obviously doesn't) she would have been in France 8 hours after they released her.

[ValerieUSA]

Come on reporters. Don't just paint Lindauer as a lone wacky bird.
This creature was on the editorial board of a large daily newspaper in western Washington for 2 years, and worked as a reporter for the Seattle P.I.
She has a master's degree from the London School of Economics, where she made God knows how many contacts with foreign activists who call America "evil" as they promote global socialism.
She worked as an aide for more than one Democrat Senator.

How many traitorous foreign educated Americans have infiltrated our press and halls of Congress? Oh, and even the White House if we remember Clinton (though I really want to forget him.) Hmmmm... wasn't John F'in Kerry educated in Switzerland?

She's dangerous.
By supporting Iraqi "resistance" forces she offered to spill the blood of American and allied soldiers.

Let's not feel pity for this delusional witch - let's dig up all the influence she has had through the years and turn it around.
Yeah, reporters... I mean YOU! She's one of you.... Clean your house.

[dasboot]

Well, if they don't have her on videotape for all the world to hear and see, it'll be another major embarrassment for them. I'm thinking they've nailed her, and can show her as she really is, behind the "misguided, well-intentioned peacenick" schtick. For their sakes, that better be the case.

[Stirner]

"Where did she get the $500.000 from this time??"

From her daddy, who is a rich former would-be senate candidate in Alaska. Also, why does the government have a hard case to prove here? Isn't her admittedly wanting to conduct foreign policy without government approval enough?

"It is utter hypocrisy for government officials to pontificate about their own commitment to important projects and then reject or resist the participation of Americans in those projects," she said.

LOL......IT TAKES A VILLAGE GOES TO WAR

[jpthomas]

Fox News did a story about Takoma Park, MD yesterday in which they mentioned that Taliban Johnny's family lived there for awhile before moving to California. I wonder if this self-proclaimed "nuclear free zone" also provided any of the "human shields" for Iraq?

Which is why I am sorely dissapointed it won't end in front of a firing squad. This person is a traitor and spy, and deserves to get the traditional treatment.

[ValerieUSA]

Thank you for that link to links.

[backhoe]

You bet!

[Grut]

Isn't her admittedly wanting to conduct foreign policy without government approval enough?

The line forms behind Jimmy Carter and Jesse Jackson, which is to say it doesn't form at all.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Interesting...... possible connection?
