This has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with having members of the Muslim Brotherhood in the White House.

Well, it is Iran spewing this, so I am taking it with large grains of salt.
They probably did get some CIA "assets" but I highly doubt they got "agents".

the professional intelligence people in CIA and WH are playing up how skillful the ME counterintelligence people have become.

I don't believe it.

Either purposely or carelessly, someone in the CIA, WH or State Dept. compromised one or more, and through skillful torture techniques other operatives were revealed.

The US has a sordid history of exposing our sources of information. The deceased Senator Church of the 60’s/70’s, and others like him have blood on their hands - and that is a fact!! Who is it now???

Iran’s arresting our agents, Hezbollah has arrested a bunch of our agents...I don’t think hussein obama sees that as failure.

The government is peppered with Muslim Brotherhood who have come in as mid-east experts throughout the government. Add them to the communists who have always been there blowing classified operations one after another. Remember the long list of classified ops blown during Bush’s tenure?

They need to go through these agencies with a firehose. Starting with the White House.

"This looks like a mole to me."

Well, starting at the top, this Administration is riddled with Islamists and Islamic sympathizers appointed with a worldview to the weakening and conquest of the US.

Republicans in Congress need to call for an independent counsel to investigate this. I have little doubt that this is a leftwing conspiracy to get payback to the agency because the left thinks that they were not punished enough by obama, and that the agency is guilty of war crimes. This has Obama/Holder/Jeramiah Wright/Farrakan, finger prints all over it.

What I heard about 6 year ago:

A US spy ring got rolled up in either Iran or Iraq (so I could be wrong about the chronology).

Some puke from State is getting escorted by the target country to some facility —he hears screaming. They draw nearer, round a corner, and the guy sees a big gaggle of screaming, live men HANGING BY THEIR BALLS.

I’m serious. This was their way of telling the US official, “We caught your spy ring.”

Nice, huh?

Can’t remember if it was Iraq or Iran, but it was one of those two.

Find one CIA spy and you may have very good local counter intelligence. Find 12 CIA spies and you have a mole in either the CIA or the State Department.

Or you have a paper-pushing seat warmer who wants to pass info to his "friends" without going through normal declassification procedures. It happened in Iraq last year, where a bench-warming military officer wanted to play "good-ole-boy" with his Iraqi counterpart and pass them information above the board.

I’m sure the Department of “Justice” will “accidentally” screw up the case so that they’ll be released on probation and an apology like Wen Ho Lee.

This story comes from the Who To Trust category.

Iran saying they arrested 12 CIA agents is a lot like Baghdad Bob denying US troops were in marching through Baghdad.

Any denials from Obama’s Regime are a kin to Clinton’s denials about Monica.

Then there’s Haartez....

I wonder how much information the Obama/Hildabeast/Panetta triad is providing Iran in their appeasement “reach out” to the Islamic regimes?
