Could one of the world's most notorious terrorist groups have infiltrated the U.S. government? Obviously these people don't know how infiltrated our government has been over the decades...

Heads should roll.
If nobody is punished, after leaking vital national security secrets to the press, or hiring political allies, or failing to do background checks on agents, then they will just keep doing it.
Ever since I joined FR, I’ve been pointing out that the CIA and the FBI are broken, and nobody in this administration seems to have any interest in fixing it.
Even if they don’t give a damn about the security of our country, you’d think they’d want to limit the political damage caused by all these traitors.
In some ways, the Plame affair was even worse than this, and that’s saying a lot.

I long ago stated that there wasn’t a damn thing wrong with our intel. The crime was what happened to it when it got into the hands of the analysts. Turns out the crime was the analysts themselves. This is only the tip of the iceberg.

Not only are the enemies inside the gate. They’re loosening the screws from the inside.

Unbelievable!
Someone really screwed up on this. But no one will ever have his/her hand slapped.

Pretty much the chance you have to take if you are going to rapidly ramp up an efforts that requires large numbers of people fluent in languages little spoken by older immigrant groups. It would not surprise me to learn that various government agencies were willing to overlook questionable immigration status to recruit such personnel.

Sheesh - from the article!:
In the second indictment last month, Chahinenow believed to be a fugitive in Lebanonwas charged with conspiring with a former senior official of the Homeland Security’s office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Detroit to extort funds from former employees of Chahine’s La Shish restaurant chain. (Although he has since left the country, his lawyer has denied that Chahine had any involvement in terrorism.) The ICE official, Roy Bailey, was accused of misusing his position to accept “large sums of currency and other property in return for granting immigration benefits,” according to a Justice Department press release last month. (Bailey has entered a plea of not guilty.)

And yet Clinton, who gave away massive amounts of US secrets to the Chinese, is walking free.

Is my reading comprehension low this evening - or did this article not mention if she was a Muslim? Understood she was working at a restaurant owned by a contributor to Hezbollah, and Hezbollah is a Shia Muslim organization, but what is her religious affiliation? The reason I think this is a critical missing ingredient is that the proper fear in this situation is the possibility that you can take the Muslim out of the Middle east, but you can never take the Muslim out of the Muslim, so to speak. My limited reading on th is subject(a couple of Bernard Lewis books on Islam) tells me that there is no jurisdictional component to Islam - you are the same regardless of where you are on the surface of the earth (i.e., not an American, a Swede, an Angolan, etc.) and I think we may have much more to fear from this combination of alliance only to Islam and our piss poor internal security procedures at CIA/FBI/DHS/you-name-it.
OBTW - note her entry into the FBI was during the Clinton Administration. That was hard to miss.

Check out Debbie Schussle's
web site.
The FBI and U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy (and before him, U.S. Attorneys Craig Morford and Jeffrey Collins) knew Prouty was a spy for Hezbollah back in 2003, but they allowed her to work for the FBI and CIA for over FOUR Years! They did not remove her from the job until the end of this past September--1.5 years after her brother-in-law was indicted for financing Hezbollah!!!!!!

I seem to recall in the aftermath of 9-11 that Arabic interpreters working for the government were caught joking and laughing about the attack.
I further recall that the US had declined the services of Jewish Arabic translators because the Arabs already in government objected to working with them.

I heard the first part but never the second. Big mistake. Israeli intel success lies in the large pool of Sephardic Jews who can blend in with the Arabs.

Bush never cleaned out the nest of Leftist holdovers in the agencies. Why should he worry about a few arabs and jihadis?
