This from fdl comments<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>This is a CIA job all over. Did you see fubar's post at Needlenose regarding "Trap Street?" Apparently, Plame was NOT with WINPAC, but that was a story made up by the CIA as a trap -- traps are designed to catch leakers and/or traitors. The 411 about Plame at WINPAC was a plant and was imparted to Cheney's office.<br><br>Now the more interesting question is why:<br><br>If this report is true then the following is true:<br><br>1. The CIA set up Rove/Cheney/Libbey/Bolton IN ADVANCE of Wilson's trip to Niger, knowing that (a) Wilson would NOT find Evidence of WMD and (b) that he would report his non-finding publicly;<br>2. It was anticipated that Rove, in his usual knee-jerk reactuion to adverse criticism or "disloyalty" would set out to destroy Wilson, and thus planted this seed about Plame, knowing Rove would go for it. When one considers that the CIA's primary business is manipulating people, it is not difficult to see how this would work.<br>3. Wilson writes his piece in the NYTimes and naturally, Rove et. al. immediately set out to destroy him, which they do, using the phony 411 about WINPAC which info is leaked to the ENTIRE "journalism" community. Only Novak bit (at first). TRAP SPRUNG.<br>CHECK.<br>4. Now the trap is sprung, the CIA complains to Justice, prompting Asshat's eventual recusal and the assignment of Mr. Fitzgerald.<br>5. CIA, knowing where ALL the bodies are buried and who on the totem pole can be squeezed and who will roll, assists Fitzgerald's office with occasional helpful tidbits.<br>6. Miller folds, coughs up her dirt AND the "gee I didn't know I had these" notes and BOOM: The WINPAC information therein identifies without question WHO leaked.<br>MATE.<br><br>And I thought this was going to be a bad week.<br><br>Here endeth the lesson: NEVER fuck with the CIA.<br>Marblex | 10.19.05 - 9:08 am | #<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br>Now I think it’s an interesting post in itself.<br>But doesn’t it fit beautifully with CS’s theory that Wilson/Plame are in on it?<br>And it certainly fits with my own theory that Plame wanted out of the CIA.<br>Maybe that’s why Wilson has started bleating about their intention to file civil suit for “The damage done to her career”?<br> <p></p><i></i>
