At this point, we know who the enemy is and it’s not Al Qaeda as Brian El-Ross of ABC (we’d sell the country out for some ratings) blows the lid off another national secret.¬† (No, I won’t reprint the story here).

Let’s look at what damaged this leak caused in just the last 12 hours. ¬† All of which is based on facts as told to me.¬† The agency had to immediately extract assets in Iran and Iraq and pull back operations in other critical areas – in other words – scramble. ¬† Additionally there might be as much as four ops in critical exposure because of the story.

So where is Chuck Schumer now?¬† So ‘protective’ of Valerie Plame, will he now show the same outrage at the exposure of a covert operation that put our agency men and women in such danger?

Yeah, hold your breath.

I would suggest that at a mimimum Brian Ross and his execs at ABC News will be brought up on charges of devulging active classified operations and endangering the security of the United States in a time of war.  In the meantime I would suggest a blogswarm calling for a boycott of ABC TV until Brian Ross is fired.

What he did far outweighs what Imus did and he should at lease suffer the same fate.
