20% of flagged CIA applicants tied to Hamas, Hizballah, al-Qaeda

Written by Robert Spencer

Clearly, there have been serious attempts at infiltration. And did any of the infiltrators slip by and into the CIA? Given the fact that our government is committed to politically correct willful ignorance about the nature of Islam and jihad, and thus is unlikely to know how to screen applicants properly on these matters, that is not just a possibility; it's a certainty.

"CIA finds 1-in-5 job applicants hail from Hamas, Hezbollah, al Qaeda," by Cheryl K. Chumley for The Washington Times, September 2 (thanks to Kenneth):

An estimated one-fifth of all applicants for Central Intelligence Agency positions had significant ties to the terror groups, Hamas, Hezbollah and al Qaeda, a newly released document from the Edward Snowden collection revealed on Monday.
The document — released by Mr. Snowden as part of his National Security Agency intelligence dump — said that the terrorist groups worked hard to infiltrate America’s top security agencies. CIA officials uncovered thousands of applicants, roughly 1-in-5, with “significant terrorist and/or hostile intelligence connections,” the document states, Ynet News reported.
