Has al Qaeda Penetrated the CIA?

Rep. Peter Hoekstra, the chairman of the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee (al-Reuters):
"More frequently than what we would like, we find out that the intelligence community has been penetrated, not necessarily by al Qaeda, but by other nations or organizations," he said.

"I don't have any evidence. But from my perspective, when you have information that is leaked that is clearly helpful to our enemy, you cannot discount that possibility," he added.
This is a horrifying thought. And to think that the New York Times and the Los Angelas Times could be complicit in this sort of thing is damaging to both of their reputations.
