CIA finds 1 in 5 flagged job applicants come from Hamas, Hezbollah, al Qaeda
The Washington Times ^ | September 2, 2013 | Cheryl K. Chumley

An estimated one-fifth of a subset of all applicants for Central Intelligence Agency positions had significant ties to the terror groups Hamas, Hezbollah and al Qaeda, a newly released document from NSA leaker Edward Snowden’s collection revealed Monday.

The document — released by Mr. Snowden as part of his National Security Agency intelligence dump — said the terrorist groups worked hard to infiltrate America’s top security agencies. CIA officials uncovered thousands of applicants, roughly one in five of a subset, with “significant terrorist and/or hostile intelligence connections,” the document states, as Ynet News reported.

The specifics of those ties were not revealed, but the groups most often cited as attempting to infiltrate the U.S. intelligence network were al Qaeda, Hamas and Hezbollah.....

How could we be surprised? There are jihadis in the White House, aren't there?

1 in 5 ‘flagged’.

I guess those are just the dumb ones.

When I saw this yesterday, it didn't make it real clear if these people were applying on U. S. soil or not. If it did, I missed it.

If they were on U. S. soil, tell me that isn't disconcerting, 20% of all applicants here affiliated with terrorist organization, and on our soil.

If that's true, some heads should role after long terms a Leavenworth.

I suspect if they didn't make the CIA cut they could head over and put in an application at Homeland Insecurity. There should be no problem getting hired there.

On the other hand, with the head of the CIA being a Moslem himself, their chances are pretty good there, too.

“CIA finds 1 in 5 flagged job applicants come from Hamas, Hezbollah, al Qaeda”

And how many aren’t flagged? How many actually end up getting hired?

CIA doesn't flag Muslim Brotherhood applicants?

How many were missed in the hiring process?

What sort of databases are they involved with?

Delightful news, just delightful, no?

I’m still waiting for the analysis of White House job applicants and new hires. I bet it would be more than 1 in 5.

Shoot, I’m still waiting for the analysis of the TOP White House job applicant, that one made it through, but should have been flagged big time.

How were the applicants flagged? How many were flagged? There would be only five applicants flagged because of financial discrepancies and one of them had terrorist affiliations.

The CIA has always actively recruited from virtually every dirtbag category you can think of. The trick , of course, is to make them work harder for us than their “home.” I expect the CIA recruiters would be dissapointed if they weren’t getting apps from your basic pieces of krap. I’m going to trust the CIA’s to get it mostly right because the fun part is that, in doing the background checks, they get to know the familys, the work historys, the travels, and all the rest of the geniuses that apply. Snowden’s idea of spilling the beans tells me that he really doesn’t know where he was of what he was actually doing. Unless he’s got the goods on Obama he’s otherwise just another boring dunce.

Apparently Snowden was doing a lot of reading for quite a long time before pulling the trigger.

But why would anyone be surprised. The head of the CIA is a muslim. The president is a muslim. Hillary is a lesbian...oh, wait. Wrong subject.
