Law and Order: The Justice Department

The powerful ripple effects of the Wen Ho Lee and John M. Deutch cases have made their way from the Justice Department to the Pentagon, where a key senator is convinced there was a coverup of Deutch's alleged mishandling of classified materials when he served as deputy defense secretary in the early to mid-1990s.
Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) says acting Defense Inspector General Donald Mancuso should not be confirmed by the Senate as IG and asks whether there is a "double standard" at work.
While the Justice Department punished scientist Lee with a 59-count criminal indictment and solitary confinement for nine months, neither Justice nor the Defense Department has taken action against Deutch. The CIA did strip him of his security clearances.
Grassley accuses Mancuso of failing to investigate Deutch soon enough and aggressively enough for using unsecured computers at home, along with his America Online account, making classified information about military operations vulnerable to hackers.
Although Deutch has admitted he was careless in his handling of intelligence secrets as CIA director, internal defense documents allege he also mishandled classified information about military operations at the Pentagon.
"Mancuso abdicated his responsibility on two counts," Grassley told The Washington Post. "First, he looked the other way when told that John Deutch may have compromised Defense Department secrets. Second, a year and a half later, he agreed to conduct a joint investigation with Defense Department lawyers instead of conducting an independent investigation."

As might have been expected, the Israeli lobby is trying hard to equate patsy Wen Ho Lee with cunning Israeli spook John Deutch.... However, while the former was merely a sitting mandarin-duck who got framed by the Chink-bashing crowd, the latter was likely the highest-ranking intelligencer the Mossad has ever relied on to circumvent the White House's policy as regards the Middle East peace process and other issues. It's also clear that the code-named MEGA mole as referred to in a tapped phone chat between Tel Aviv and Washington's Israeli embassy was none but John Deutch. Same with Jonathan Pollard, the Navy top-clearanced swab who siphoned off a truckload of classified stuff for the Mossad --guess who gave him the daily updated access codes....
No wonder the Bilderbergers are pushing hard on the LIEBERMAN-gore ticket. After all, with Lieberman in the White House, the hint might be dropped on the Justice Dept. that the Deutch case should be closed... |
