It might help if Obama quit sending the Pali terrorists hundreds of millions of dollars per year?
The real question is who in the administration is give the info up on them?
Another thing to try and sweep under the thug rug.
“The real question is who in the administration is give the info up on them?”
Same one responsible for bringing down packed military helicopters once in a while.
Obama probably gave them up to his rag head buds.
Yeah, which person in Obama’s admin outed them to Hezballah.
Couple different sources now reporting at least a “dozen” US spies were apprehended by Hezbollah. This is starting to sound like a HUGE Clusterf#&$

Okay, this is bad. Just how were they exposed? Mistake? Carelessness? Double agent? Obama?
Probably to Hezbollah in exchange for not completely taking over in Lebanon and making it obvious on his watch.
Remember how the “media” ballyhooed the “outing” of the so-called CIA agent Valerie Plame.
Waiting for proportionate treatment on this one. As if...

“The CIA was well aware the spies were vulnerable in Lebanon. CIA officials were warned, including the chief of the unit that supervises Hezbollah operations from CIA headquarters in Langley, Va., and the head of counterintelligence.

Result of premature announcement of Bin Laden assination?
Where is our Sec. of State? She should make a public statement since it happened on her watch.
But, Plame was deep cover.
Sloppy, dumb Panetta. The CIA needs a major overhaul. Obama promising to witch hunt the CIA and hamstringing our intelligence activity didn’t help.
obama IS a double agent.
