US Officials: CIA Curbed as Hizbullah Unmasks Spies  http://en.moqawama.org/essaydetails.php?eid=15799&cid=274   Current and former US officials said the CIA's operations in Lebanon have been badly damaged after Hizbullah identified and captured a number of US spies recently, reported The Associated Press.The intelligence debacle is particularly troubling because the CIA saw it coming.And though the US Embassy in Lebanon officially denied the accusation, current and former officials concede that it happened and the damage has spread even further.According to the AP report, CIA officials have secretly been scrambling in recent months to protect their remaining spies - foreign assets or agents working for the agency - before Hizbullah can find them.Hizbullah's Secretary General His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, boasted on television in June that he had rooted out at least two CIA spies who had infiltrated the ranks of Hizbullah.The damage to the agency's spy network in Lebanon has been greater than usual, several former and current US officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about security matters.The Lebanon crisis is the latest mishap involving CIA counterintelligence, the undermining or manipulating of the enemy's ability to gather information. Former CIA officials have said that once-essential skill has been eroded as the agency shifted from outmaneuvering rival spy agencies to fighting terrorists. In the rush for immediate results, former officers say, tradecraft has suffered.It remains unclear whether anyone has been or will be held accountable in the wake of this counterintelligence disaster or whether the incident will affect the CIA's ability to recruit assets in Lebanon.
