50 Spies Release Stunning Information on Obama… White House in Panic Mode
(Conservative Tribune) – In a stunning report published in September, The Daily Beast alleged that 50 intelligence officials in United States Central Command have come forward to allege that intelligence has been doctored to make it look as if the United States and allied forces are doing better than they actually are.
The 50 officials had filed formal complaints within CENTCOM, but those complaints had been ignored, according to the report. This led to the officials collectively signing a letter to the Department of Defense’s inspector general, who is now conducting an investigation in to the claims.
“The reports were changed by CENTCOM higher-ups to adhere to the administration’s public line that the U.S. is winning the battle against ISIS and al Nusra, al Qaeda’s branch in Syria, the analysts claim,” The Daily Beast said.
An unnamed Defense Department official said: “The cancer was within the senior level of the intelligence command.”
The report, as a whole, painted an unflattering picture of an administration and president that would punish intelligence officials who gave them an accurate assessment of terrorist strength and didn’t doctor the information.
Rep. Jackie Speier, a ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, criticized CENTCOM officials in an appearance on MSNBC earlier this week.
“More recently the intelligence community, I think, has provided much more accurate assessments. But CENTCOM, which is the area that is responsible for the Middle East, has, for whatever reasons, we don’t know yet why, has dumbed down the intelligence, has sweetened it, has made it seem like we are being more successful there than we are,” Speier said.
“I’m deeply troubled by what I believe is doctoring that has taken place and has created an impression that we are doing better there than we actually are.”
She also called on CENTCOM officials to protect those who came forward, especially the letter’s author.
“I’m very concerned about the whistleblower. I’ve sent a letter to (Gen. Lloyd Austin, head of CENTCOM) making sure that this whistleblower is not retaliated against,” Speier said.
