WHITE HOUSE MUST UNDERGO A 'HOUSE CLEANING'
Kenneth
R. Timmerman, The Hill
The rogue weasels have struck. Terrified that Lieutenant General
Michael T. Flynn would tear them out root and branch, they connived
and colluded, anonymously of course, to leak highly-sensitive
intelligence information to destroy Flynn before he could destroy
them.
This type of operation is not new. I wrote a whole book
about it in 2007. I called them, the “shadow warriors.”
Then as
now, the shadow warriors excelled at covert operations. After all,
they lived in the darkness in a universe of lies.
Their
technique “involved deep penetration of a hostile regime by planting a
network of agents at key crossroads of power, where they could steal
secrets and steer policy by planting disinformation, cooking
intelligence, provocation, and outright lies.”
As I wrote at
the time, this effort “involved sophisticated political sabotage
operations, aimed at making regime leaders doubt their own judgment
and question the support of their subordinates… It was war — but an
intelligence war, played behind the scenes, aimed at confusing,
misleading, and ultimately defeating the enemy. Its goal was nothing
less than to topple the regime in power, by discrediting its rulers.”
These are powers and skills most Americans ascribe to our
nation’s clandestine intelligence services, right? Don’t we want to
have spies at the heart of the Iranian Supreme Leader’s entourage? Or
planted next to whichever Kim is ruling his North Korean hermit
kingdom? Isn’t that the type of capability we spending more than $80
billion a year to develop?
Alas, none of those very real
targets is the target of these rogue weasels. Their target is the
president of the United States.
The shadow warriors began
leaking even before President Trump was sworn into office.
