Afghanistan suicide bomber who killed seven CIA employees invited onto the base and was never searched!

obama-pictureAccording to the AP, the suicide bomber who killed seven CIA employees in southeastern Afghanistan had been invited onto the base and was NEVER searched, according two former U.S. officials! This must be the new way of Obama’s admin planning to reach out to the “muslim world”, and also the affects of what going after the CIA has yielded America! Navy Seals get court-martialed for giving some terrorist a fat lip, Obama and Holder plan to go after Bush CIA officials, and this is what you are left with. This is also more proof of how incompetent CIA Director Leon Panetta is.

A former senior intelligence official says the man was being courted as an informant and that it was the first time he had been brought inside the camp. An experienced CIA debriefer came from Kabul for the meeting, suggesting that the purpose was to gain intelligence, the official said.

The former intelligence official and another former official with knowledge of the attack spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

The CIA would not confirm the details, and said it was still gathering evidence on the incident.

“It’s far too early to draw conclusions about something that happened just yesterday,” said spokesman George Little.

A separate U.S. official suggested the bomber may have set off the explosives as he was about to be searched.

The bombing on Wednesday dealt a blow to the tight-knit spy agency. Among those killed was the chief of the CIA post, whom former officials identified as a mother of three. Six more agency personnel were wounded in what was considered the most lethal attack for the CIA since the war in Afghanistan began in 2001 and possibly even since the 1983 embassy bombing in Beirut.

It also was the single deadliest attack for Americans in Afghanistan since eight soldiers were killed in an insurgent attack on a base in the east on Oct. 3.

President Barack Obama and CIA Director Leon Panetta were joined by several leading lawmakers on Thursday in praising agency employees for their work.

“Those who fell yesterday were far from home and close to the enemy, doing the hard work that must be done to protect our country from terrorism,” Panetta said in a statement confirming the deaths. “We owe them our deepest gratitude, and we pledge to them and their families that we will never cease fighting for the cause to which they dedicated their lives — a safer America.”
