Iran Surely Grateful For The Loose Lips At Langley
Thanks to someone in the CIA or in the larger "intelligence community" who can't keep their mouths shut, we may wind up with no other option against Iranian nuclear ambitions except the military strike.
While we're at it, we should also thank ABC News for publicizing the top secret order.
In other coverage, Curt at Flopping Aces offers that Iran now has an even more airtight "excuse" to put down any protests as being "CIA funded". More Iranians will end up dead, and this operation hasn't even gotten off the ground. Confederate Yankee says he'll be very interested to see whether or not the Justice Department will attempt to prosecute anyone in the intelligence community who leaked this information, as they obviously should. I doubt that Brain Ross or the staff of ABC News will be tried for criminal offenses (including treason), though the majority of comments posted on the Blotter's comment thread clearly favor that action... at least those they haven't yet deleted.
