Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.) said Wednesday she has “never seen it worse” regarding recent national security leaks in a series of reported stories that contained sensitive national security details. ...

The House and Senate Intelligence Committees announced Wednesday they would draft new laws concerning leaks of classified and sensitive information. Feinstein is chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.

"I am deeply disturbed by the continuing leaks of classified information to the media, most recently regarding alleged cyber efforts targeting Iran’s nuclear program," (she said).

Meh, so what. Non issue IMO. Anything that needs to be kept secret usually is something that the public A) should know, and B) won't seriously care about anyway. Also, it sometimes means the black boys are up to no good, or taxpayer dollars are being wasted on getting intel like the great stuff we got from Curveball. Or intentional mis-information leaks.

It's all a game.

Your source is a known right-wing shill piece, Rappy, and therefore the whole article is dismissed.


Hey, that's how you roll, right?

It's NOT just a game. Had you been following the details, not only does this put the US in a bad light, it also makes it harder for our own allies to trust us. If we're going to betray THEIR trust, why should they stick their necks out to help us ?

And yes, Kwickie. Diane Feinstein is a true, far Right wing chicken hawk, isn't she ?

Idiot.

Onama is the leak. Arrest him now. Try him in gitmo, find him guilty, then kill him until his head pops off. If its good enuff for Saddam Hussein, its good enuff for Hussein Obama.

New York Times: Obama Ordered the Stuxnet Attack on Iran

Obama asked his national security advisers whether the attack should be halted at a White House Situation Room meeting convened days after the virus “escaped”, but decided to intensify it instead.

Commentators suggested that confirmation of American involvement in Stuxnet had been released by others to neutralize any Republican election claims that President Obama has been soft on Iran.

“Obama wanted to get credit for Stuxnet, as that makes him look tough against Iran,” said Mikko Hypponen, chief research officer at F-Secure, one of the security firms that have investigated Stuxnet. “And he needs that as Presidential elections are coming.”

The report comes several days after Iranian security experts reported that Flame, a virus far more dangerous than the Stuxnet worm, struck the country's computer systems.

The virus, described by the Kaspersky Internet security firm as the “most sophisticated cyber-weapon yet unleashed”, struck at least 600 specific computer systems in Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Sudan, Saudi Arabia and the Palestinian Authority.

Iran later admitted that its oil industry was briefly affected by Flame, but claimed that Iranian experts had detected and defeated the virus.

It is not known who was behind the virus, but Vice Prime Minister Moshe Ya'alon appeared to hint in a radio interview Tuesday that Israel is behind the malware.

Asked about the attack, Ya'alon told IDF Radio: “Whoever sees the Iranian threat as a meaningful threat – it is reasonable he would take various measures, including this one.”

“Israel has been blessed with being a state rich in top level high-tech. These tools that we take pride in open up various possibilities for us,” he added.

The semi-official Iranian news agency Fars seized upon Ya’alon's statements as proof that Israel engineered the Flame virus.

“The Vice Prime Minister of the Zionist regime admitted the role of the regime in creating the virus Flame for cyber espionage in the Middle East, and especially in Iran,” Fars stated. "Moshe Ya’alon's statements today are an additional confirmation of Israel's role in developing the malicious program.”

Yes it is. A dangerous game, but a game nonetheless.

They work with us sometimes; no one truly trusts us, and with good reason.

Profit & power, same as always.
There's a small national security angle as well, but if that was a real priority, 9-11 would never have happened.

Chris.

You're looking at this through purely partisan eyes.

The Iraq 'goof' wasn't an issue of leaked intel. You go tell Diane Feinstein about how this isn't any big deal, or not all that much different. She's no 'right winger', and even she can't cover up for this - who EVER it is that's leaking this stuff.

Sorry, but I can't follow your tin foil hat comments on what was the cause of 9-11. This is NOW, and the leaks recently coming are of a current nature, not drudging up things from the past. If you can't / won't deal with the very real issues of the present, then you're really not comprehending what is going on.

Okay, this is the biggest, b.s., nonsensical conspiracy theory of all time. There is absolutely no reason for the Obama Admin. to purposefully leak this stuff, and every reason not to. No Democratic President in my lifetime has been as outright hawkish as Barack Obama. He got OBL killed, for chrissakes. If that didn't settle the issue, no amount of leaking of sensative intel will do it. And, hello, this amount of leak can do nothing but damage his reputation, anyway. No way does he have to commit this kind of crime just so folks will think he's tough on fer'ners. There is no reason for his admin. to leak this information. There is no way that this does not look bad for President Obama.

Sure, it's the worst Feinstein has seen, not because Obama's leaking this stuff, but because information is becoming less and less secure, period. Hello, wikileaks, hello, anonymous. Systems can be hacked. As the technology becomes more and more available, more and more private citizens and organizations have access to the best gear. It's a sign of the times. Obama would have to be a moron to think, "Gee, I better shore up my national security cred by letting the world know that I'm attacking Iran." He may be a lot of things, but he ain't a moron. And he has proven that he and his know perfectly well how to run a campaign and this clearly is not how ya do it.

Anybody who floats this b.s. conspiracy is a buffoon.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

Post deleted because it is illogical to have an emotional response when a blind man cannot see.
