our boys in “The Company”

ABC News reports that the Department of Justice has launched an investigation into a CIA station chief that may have drugged and raped Muslim women in Algeria and Egypt. Following at least two specific complaints, investigators discovered secret surveillance tapes in the agent’s possession showing sex acts between him and a number of women, as well as a cache of pills of an undetermined type. The women claimed to have been drugged prior to the sexual assaults:

The CIA’s station chief at its sensitive post in Algeria is under investigation by the U.S. Justice Department for allegedly raping at least two Muslim women who claim he laced their drinks with a knock-out drug, U.S. law enforcement sources tell ABC News.

Officials say the 41-year old CIA officer, a convert to Islam, was ordered home by the U.S. Ambassador, David Pearce, in October after the women came forward with their rape allegations in September.

That’s our government!

Tangentially: I’d think that we’d no more want a CIA station chief who was a Muslim helping us fight the global dominance aspirations of Muslims than we would want a CIA station chief who was a Communist helping us fight the global dominance aspirations of Communists… but what do I know?

    The CIA needed to be purged, top to bottom, on or after September 12, 2001. Subsequent hostile leaks and behavior have only reinforced this.

    The difference is that Muslims come in different flavors. We want to reform Islam, or help it reform itself, because it sure isn’t going anywhere. Communism, on the other hand, came in only one flavor, and it’s now been so nearly extirpated that it exists only in North Korea, western university campuses, and on the opinion pages of certain European newspapers.

    Some day I’ll post about meeting decent Communist Party members in the waning days of the Soviet Union, and why that’s different. In some, but by no means all, social strata in the Soviet Union, being a Communist was like being a member of the Rotary Club or the Loyal Order of Moose.
