 CIA official with top security clearance charged for leaking highly classified docs about Israel’s plans to strike Iran

A CIA official has been charged with leaking highly classified US documents about Israel’s potential plan to strike back against Iran over a missile attack.

Asif W. Rahman, who worked overseas for the agency and held a top secret security clearance, was arrested by the FBI in Cambodia on Tuesday over the leaks, the New York Times reported.

His arrest comes after the top secret materials started circulating online last month detailing Israel’s apparent intention to retaliate after Iran launched a barrage of missiles back on Oct. 1. 

The files, which were prepared by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, in part detailed satellite imagery tied to the potential Israeli strike, as well as the various kinds of missiles on hand.

The top secret files were only meant to be seen by those with proper clearance in the US and the other members of the “Five Eyes” intelligence alliance — Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

Treason, pure and simple.

Must be dealt with immediately by the incoming AG.

And we need a very visible trial, but first we need to shake him down to see if he can finger higher-ups.

But something tells me this guy might be a patsy so they are quickly placing the blame on him so he shuts up

"Asif W. Rahman"

Ummm....
What RELIGION does Rahman belong to?

I DON'T CARE if you come back at me with "there should be no religious tests" as per hiring in the government.

Here's an example of why there SHOULD be.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Did you notice that this CIA guy was arrested in Cambodia?

The Deep State is desperately attempting to deflect from themselves reaching out that far before Trump begins lining them up.

Rats scurry before the cat's arrival: CIA official busted for leaking Israel's plans for Iran attack online
By Monica Showalter
Suddenly, they have standards again.

Playtime is over. Cat's coming back.

What else can one conclude with this kind of news from the New York Times?

A C.I.A. official has been charged with disclosing classified documents that appeared to show Israel’s plans to retaliate against Iran for a missile attack earlier this year, according to court documents and people familiar with the matter.

The official, Asif W. Rahman, was indicted last week in federal court in Virginia with two counts of willful retention and transmission of national defense information. He was arrested by the F.B.I. on Tuesday in Cambodia and brought to federal court in Guam to face charges.

The documents were prepared by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, which analyzes images and information collected by U.S. spy satellites. It conducts work in support of clandestine and military operations.

Mr. Rahman, who worked abroad for the C.I.A., was set to appear in Guam on Thursday.
 

The information in the documents is highly classified and details interpretations of satellite imagery that shed light on a possible strike by Israel on Iran. They began circulating last month on the Telegram app.

That was quick.
