LEAKERS BEWARE…MAYBE
Some action is reportedly coming down the pike:
The Bush administration is preparing a crackdown on intelligence leaks to the media and will try to pursue prosecutions in some recent cases, the chairman of the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee on Tuesday.
Michigan Republican Rep. Peter Hoekstra also suggested some unauthorized leaks could have been deliberate attempts to help al Qaeda.
“More frequently than what we would like, we find out that the intelligence community has been penetrated, not necessarily by al Qaeda, but by other nations or organizations,” he said.
“I don’t have any evidence. But from my perspective, when you have information that is leaked that is clearly helpful to our enemy, you cannot discount that possibility,” he added.
AJ Strata speculates about where the leaks came from and why. Tom Maguire wonders what’s heating up Hoekstra. Allah has doubts about whether the prosecution efforts will go anywhere.
Yeah, I’ll believe it when I see it, too.
