Beyond Irony: Valerie Plame Worked at the CIA to Stop Iran from Obtaining Nuclear Weapons

Raw Story reports: CBS News has confirmed, in advance of a 60 Minutes interview with outed CIA agent Valerie Plame to be run this Sunday, that Plame "was involved in operations to prevent Iran from building nuclear weapons." "

Our mission was to make sure that the bad guys, basically, did not get nuclear weapons," Plame told 60 Minutes. Plame also indicated that her outing in 2003 had caused grave damage to CIA operations, saying, "All the intelligence services in the world were running my name through their databases" to see where she had gone and who she had met with.

Raw story first reported on the story back in 2006. The article said in relevant part: "According to current and former intelligence officials, Plame Wilson, who worked on the clandestine side of the CIA in the Directorate of Operations as a non-official cover (NOC) officer, was part of an operation tracking distribution and acquisition of weapons of mass destruction technology to and from Iran."

This has now been confirmed by CBS who is conducted an interview with Plame on 60 Minutes. Unbelievable. We are going to go an attack Iran right? This seems to be the policy of the United States and the reasons are to stop Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. Remember King George's WW III comments. We have agents (Valerie Plame) working to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, yet it was so important to cover up the Iraq war lies that these enemies of democracy (I am referring to Bush and co. here in case I am vague) outed her -sabotaging their own policy that in theory is a much bigger threat than Iraq.

This reveals this administration's hypocrisy, lies and criminal misdeeds more than anything else. I don't believe Iran is a threat just as I don't believe Iraq was a threat to the United States. These wars have nothing to do with terrorism or security, but energy. You can take that to the bank.

This President Should Be Impeached Now. Go to Raw Story to see a clip of the interview with Plame.

I can't believe it. Outing someone for their selfish gain and subverting their own policy...I had never heard this before.
