Credibility Problems at the Washington Post: Blogger Fabricates Content of Reza Kahlili Speech on Iran
You’re a bit of a liar, aren’t you?
From the blog post you’re speaking of, but didn’t link to:
“Three former CIA officers who ran Iranian operations in the ’80s and should have been knowledgeable said they had never heard of such a significant penetration of the Guard during this period,” The Washington Post’s veteran spy-watcher, David Ignatius, said in a review of Kahlili’s memoir, A TIME TO BETRAY: The Astonishing Double Life of a CIA Agent Inside the Revolutionary Guards of Iran.
“A current U.S. government official, however, did vouch for Kahlili’s role as a spy,” Ignatius added.
“I can’t confirm every jot and title in the book,” the official told Ignatius, “but he did have a relationship with U.S. intelligence.”
“I can say without any doubt that Mr. Kahlili’s relationship to the U.S. intelligence community is legitimate,” his lawyer Mark Zaid said. “His book was cleared.”
