Tabatabai had the opportunity to shape the intelligence to meet her needs.
Last month I wrote about the revelations involving Ariane Tabatabai, currently the Chief of Staff to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict, who has a security clearance, but who emails show had collaborated with the Iranian regime.
In 2014, a year before Tabatabai began working as a NATO consultant, she joined an initiative by the Iranian Foreign Ministry to mobilize “Iranians who have established affiliations with the leading international think-tanks and academic institutions, mainly in Europe and the US.”
Tabatabai, along with Dina Esfandiary, her co-author on the proposal to have the United States ally with Iran, who is currently a senior Middle East advisor to George Soros’ Crisis Group, allegedly became members of the “core group” of Iran’s influence operation.
Before Tabatabai testified about the Iran Deal in Congress, she allegedly checked in with the head of an Iranian Foreign Ministry think tank. “I am scheduled to go to the Congress to give a talk about the nuclear program. I will bother you in the coming days,” she wrote.
Jennifer Van Laar at Red State reports that sources have said that Tabatabai was sabotaging counterterrorism materials.
Counterterrorism analysts speaking to RedState on condition of anonymity, whose reports would have crossed Tabatabai’s desk, say that for at least the past year their product has been watered down, misquoted, or outright quashed. Tabatabai had the opportunity to shape the intelligence to meet her needs, the analysts say, and they say it’s likely that the overt intel collected during that period went to Iran.
Deeply troubling. Especially as the Biden administration has continued to stand by Tabatabai.

Is she even a US citizen?

I don’t think you can get a security clearance if your are not a citizen.
Or maybe Soros’ money can buy one, but that is not supposed to happen.
sally struthers says
How many not supposed tos do we need to hear we have but not supposed to? If I had a dollar for every time I read a story and say, that can’t happen yet it does, even though its ignoring our laws, I’d be as wealthy as Pelosi.
terry says
Well, since a non-citizen can be elected twice to the highest office where all clearances bow, what does it matter that many non-citizen’s holding dozens of National Passports with other nations, almost all hostile to the Republic of the United States of America.

This can explain how Israel was blindsided. The American “intelligence” community was telling them “Nothing to worry about”
somehistory says
bo found out things about Israel and passed them along to her enemies…including iran; which means hezbollah and hamas.would have that intelligence.
Now, this scum has a high position where she can sabotage intelligence reports to those who need it, changing things to help her *homeland*…iran, a terror state, funded by biden. using taxpayer money.
This reminds me of Judas Iscariot, who because of his greed, his thieving, committed treason against Jesus.
this ugly…inside and out…mozlum maggot debris, will not stop on her own. She should be arrested, indicted and tried for her crimes. If she lived in iran, would they allow her to go “uncovered”?

In the good old days we used to play tricks on our enemies but today our enemies plays tricks on us. Well, not us, but you know, our experts.

I had a feeling that members of Jojo Cabbage Brain’s administration may withhold intel in order to get Jews murdered. It’s a Democrat thing.
OLD GUY says
If this is true she should be tried as a traitor and executed if found guilty.
Charles Stephan says
Biden will protect them
