| 'Top CIA official posted pro-Palestine picture on Facebook two weeks after Hamas' terror attack on Israel as Biden faces mutiny from within | |
| 2023-11-29 | |
A growing revolt within the Biden administration at his handling of the Israel-Hamas war has reached the top ranks of the CIA after a top analysis chief changed her Facebook profile to a Palestinian flag. More than 400 administration staff signed an anonymous letter earlier this month demanding the President seek an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Another 1,000 employed by the US Agency for International Development echoed the call, but State Department officials have refused to crack down on the dissent, instead holding 'listening sessions' with staff as unrest grows. Now it has emerged that a CIA associate deputy director for analysis changed her Facebook cover photo to a picture of a man waving a Palestinian flag just two weeks after the brutal Hamas attack that claimed 1,200 lives. The chief who had responsibility for presenting the President's daily intelligence briefing, previously posted a selfie with the motto 'Free Palestine' superimposed on the photograph, the Financial Times reported. 'The public posting of an obviously controversial political statement by a senior analytic manager in the middle of a crisis shows glaringly poor judgment,' one former intelligence official told the paper. 'Given the CIA's longstanding incredibly close relationship with the Israelis in a liaison capacity, this would be highly irregular for a senior agency official,' said another. The chief is one of three people responsible for approving all analysis disseminated inside the agency, and has also published posts on Facebook taking a stand against antisemitism, a colleague said. 'The officer is a career analyst with extensive background in all aspects of the Middle East and this post was not intended to express a position on the conflict,' they added. But State Department officials are thought to have deluged with protests through the official Dissent Channel system, set up in the wake of the Vietnam War to allow staff to vent protest at official policy Related: CIA: 2023-11-28 Daily Evacuation Brief November 27, 2023 CIA: 2023-11-28 Former Klingon and notorious spy Jim Nicholson, released from prison CIA: 2023-11-28 China's growing espionage and propaganda threat IN the U.S.: Congress warns America has little grasp at how deep the Communist Party's influence has infiltrated communities across the nation | |
