Elizabeth O’Bagy, a pro-Syrian opposition analyst whose credibility has come under fire, might have even more explaining to do – as court documents show she once vouched for a rebel group whose website displayed extremist and anti-American images.
Among the pictures was one showing a burning U.S. Capitol.
O’Bagy was fired earlier this week by the Institute for the Study of War for allegedly lying about her academic credentials. Her writings had been used by U.S. officials to bolster their case for military action against the Assad regime.
O’Bagy discussed the rebel group in question in a June 19, 2013 signed affidavit filed in the case of American Eric Harroun, who was indicted for fighting alongside the terror group al-Nusra in Syria.
O’Bagy’s signed declaration, which included a breakdown of rebel groups and their varying degrees of affiliation to Al Qaeda-linked terrorists, was used by Harroun’s defense to argue that the former Army medic had actually fought with a splinter group and not a terrorist one – a group tied to the one O’Bagy described.
In the document, O’Bagy said she had reviewed the apparent Facebook page for the Al Aqsa Islamic Brigades, and found no signs of jihadist leanings.

I wonder if she’s sleeping with the enemy.
pack up your troubles in your O’Bagy and smile,smile,smile...
Saudi intelligence is basically an extension of the CIA.
(to wit, all the hugs and kisses with power figures in the US, Bush and Obama loving their White House Korans, etc.).
Saudi intelligence, along with Qatari and Turkey, were the organizers and funders of the revolution.
2 + 2 = 4.
The Syrian revolution is made in USA.
But sshhhhh, don’t tell anyone. Can’t have the sheeple finding this out. Better they remain idiots, then they’re easier to herd towards war.
It sounds as if she’s being groomed for the Obama administration.
Maybe Secretary of State when Kerry leaves? Or even better, Secretary of Defense—the first woman to hold that position!
She’s just as qualified as the current occupants.
She simply became *inconvenient* to have around. She’s very fluent in Arabic, researches and writes spiffy reports using CIA-funded software tools from Palantir and Praescient Analytics. She is the best at what she does. There is *no doubt* she now enjoys her own office at CIA or NSA.
Probably working directly for John Brennan.
What’s with Kerry’s right eye. Very droopy of late.
O’Bagy worked for ISW, founded by Kimberly Kagan.
Kagan’s brother is McCain adviser, Robert Kagan.
Who is Robert married to? Victoria Nuland, former spokesperson for the United States Department of State. (She was nominated to serve as Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs in May 2013.)

“Republican Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham were vocal critics of the administration’s messaging after the Benghazi attacks, but on Friday, they issued a laudatory statement about Victoria Nuland”
Holy Cow! How incestuous!
All I know of her is what I had seen very recently in her Fox News appearances speaking on this subject. She always came across as extremely knowledgeable and completely plugged in to many important “inside” Syrian News sources. Never realized that meant that she was pushing an agenda I guess it just went offer my head.
Any of you fine FReepers notice she was beating the war drums?
That was taken before his formaldehyde injections in his chin.
In the document, O’Bagy said she had reviewed the apparent Facebook page for the Al Aqsa Islamic Brigades, and found no signs of jihadist leanings.
What difference, at this point, does it make?
Botox expiration date?
To bad such an ugly big-head could have such great hair though. Doesn’t deserve it!
Yes... Haha. I think when he was running for Pres.... Ugh, the thought..
Kerry Dead Eyes. Frightening to look at that mask.
