Outrage Over Leaks by Selective Leakers
We have witnessed the outrage by the current administration over leaks of classified information to the press. The
White House has criticized journalist for leaking the Abu Ghraib Prison scandal, the secret U.S. Prisons in Europe
and Secret Wiretaps Program.

The current administration has leaked information for political gain continuously. We see classified and old
information leaked or released when it is advantageous to the current administration.

We now know that the White House staff was involved in leaking the identity of CIA undercover agent Valerie Plame
to journalists.

It is hypocritical for this administration to criticize journalist for printing stories about secret wiretaps, secret prisons
and prison abuses when the current administration leaks selectively at will.

As far as leaking a program on wiretaps, the Alkada operatives already know from White House press briefings and
Military press briefings that the U.S. is picking up their telephone transmissions.

The wiretaps weren’t much of secret to Alkada. It seems the program was only a secret from the American people.

Hypocritical indignation.
