Wow. Just wow Just when I don't think I can get any more shocked by this administration....KABAM!
They do it again!
From the article:
"A small-scale internal investigation has been expanded within the Defense Department into claims that U.S. intelligence about the Islamic State terror army has been censored by senior officials to reflect a rosier-than-reality viewpoint.
Dozens of intelligence analysts came forward in July to complain of the situation, even taking the unusual step of writing and signing their complaints to the DOD Office of the Inspector General, which opened a relatively low-key probe.
With the added unease created by the recent ISIS attacks in Paris, that probe has now gained more investigators and more documents.
Yet it has also generated more concern from Congress because U.S. officials say some intelligence may have been deleted before investigators could seize it, according to a report over the weekend in The New York Times."
New claims Pentagon doctors ISIS intelligence as probe widens
"The analysts' basic complaint is that their reports about ISIS and al Nusra - al Qaeda's branch in Syria - were supposed to be based on straightforward, on-the-ground judgments of the terrorists, but were instead rewritten by U.S. Central Command officials.
The manipulated reports were then included in briefings to President Obama that downplayed ISIS's capacity to gain territory and wage war, the analysts argue."
