Asif William Rahman, a CIA official, has been arrested overseas for leaking Israel's military plans to Iran.

October 19, 2024

"The US is investigating a leak of highly classified US intelligence about Israel’s plans for retaliation against Iran, according to three people familiar with the matter. One of the people familiar confirmed the documents’ authenticity.

The leak is “deeply concerning,” a US official told CNN.

The documents, dated October 15 and 16, began circulating online Friday after being posted on Telegram by an account called “Middle East Spectator.”

They are marked top secret and have markings indicating they are meant to be seen only by the US and its “Five Eyes” allies — Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom."

His name is "Asif W. Rahman". Some people like to be more faithful to their cult than their honesty for their job or the nation.

@ABCDEF7 Thank you for the correction! I just HEARD his name this morning, and couldn't find an article anywhere on Google.

@4meAndyou I just meant to point out the mentality of such people. Below is the article I read after reading your post.

@ABCDEF7 They are definitely a cult. I've heard TWO analyses by two different psychiatrists who emphasize the brainwashed component.

Unfortunately this creep was in a position of trust in a supposedly SECURITY conscious government job...so this action is considered treasonous.

@4meAndyou They are definitely brainwashed. And it is very dangerous.

@ABCDEF7 I heard that creating only FIVE major public broadcasting stations was done by...Reagan?...over 40 years ago, and that created an open door for the corruption of our media.

ABCDEF7 · M

@4meAndyou That is true, but today we can't say when today government wants to control the media for some political reasons. The people will never know the reality in that case.

@ABCDEF7 WE can tell...because the lies are so wild and off the wall, and so far removed from any version of sanity.

@4meAndyou They had practiced the censorship of information in the past also. They sometimes want to use this tool for their personal political benefits also.

@4meAndyou I agree with the points you’re making. That this could happen was very predictable. That we didn’t better secure that information is also sadly predictable, and an indictment on the institutions that shouldn’t let this happen.

@SW-User Perhaps with new CIA leadership in January, things will get better.

@4meAndyou Yes... I hope this is true.
