After reports, New Jersey senator calls on CIA director to conduct Plame damage assessment


Just over the weekend, MSNBC reported that Valerie Plame Wilson was an not only an analyst, but an analyst with expertise on Iran, which makes her 'outing' even more shameful, if not treasonous.

The Raw Story After reports, New Jersey senator calls on CIA director to conduct Plame damage assessment:

"Current and former intelligence officials familiar with the damage assessment say that what is called a 'counter intelligence assessment to agency operations' was conducted on the orders of the CIA's then-Deputy Director of the Directorate of Operations, James Pavitt.

Former CIA counterintelligence officer Larry Johnson said that such an assessment would have had to be done for the CIA to have referred the case to the Justice Department."
