Debbie Schlussel: **** UPDATE: Arab FBI/CIA Agent Spy for Hezbollah is Sis-in-Law of Hezbollah's $20 Million Financier; FBI/CIA Allowed Her to Remain on Job for FOUR! Years ****; Shocker: Hezbollah Said They'd Infiltrate the FBI & They Did; When a Spy is "Not a Spy";
**** NEW: EXCLUSIVE info on Hezbo's FBI/CIA spy Nada Nadim Prouty here. ****
**** UPDATE: I was right, yet again. I've read Arab FBI Agent/Hezbollah spy Nada Nadim Prouty's plea agreement (read it here). And guess what? Surprise!--She's the sister-in-law of Hezbollah's $20 million dollar financier Talal Khalil Chahine (owner of "La Shish" restaurants which remain open!), whom U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy allowed to flee the country. Prouty is the SISTER of Chahine's wife, Elfat El-Aouar. Yup, LUUUV those great FBI and CIA Background Checks of agents.
And get this: The FBI and U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy (and before him, U.S. Attorneys Craig Morford and Jeffrey Collins) knew Prouty was a spy for Hezbollah back in 2003, but they allowed her to work for the FBI and CIA for over FOUR Years! They did not remove her from the job until the end of this past September--1.5 years after her brother-in-law was indicted for financing Hezbollah!!!!!!
And I was right on another thing. She will do no or almost no jail time. Read the plea agreement, linked above. As reader Tim points out:
Nada Nadim Prouty is facing less than 12 months of jail time, or no jailtime at all, and three years of supervised probation and a fine totaling $2,225 under the plea agreement.For infiltrating the FBI and CIA and spying for Hezbollah.

I'm not sure why everyone is so surprised with today's prosecution of Nada Nadim Prouty, an American Arab FBI agent and CIA analyst, for spying for Hezbollah and passing information on to the terrorist group. Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda, and other Islamic terrorist groups have long said they'd infiltrate the FBI and other American law enforcement organizations and they did.
That's no surprise. In fact, what is surprising is that this woman is among the first they've caught. She's a drop in the bucket. As long as we continue to hire Muslims to be translators and analysts, as long as we continue to give money to Arabic and Muslim schools to teach their kids Arabic instead of non-Muslim, non-Arab Americans, as long as the FBI (and ICE) continues to turn down Sephardic Jews and Maronite Lebanese Christians who speak Arabic and who've applied for jobs in favor of extremist Muslims, that's the result we will get. Spies, spies, and more spies.
As my late Dad used to say, "Cast thy s*it upon the waters." That's what they did, even after 9/11 and even today. And that's why they--and sadly, we--reap it back tenfold and more.
And this will continue until we change and until the FBI and the White House and the President and everyone else of authority in between continues to kowtow to the Barbarians inside our gate. Oh, and kudos to the FBI for, once again, doing another bang-up job in background checks. Do you think a non-Muslim, non-Arab would get such a lax once-over? Think again.
And we trust these Famous But Incompetents to protect us against terrorists? Heck, read the article. She was spying, and they still can't admit she was spying. Good Luck, America:
A 37-year-old woman who previously worked as an FBI agent and a CIA analyst, pleaded guilty Tuesday to charges involving her disclosure of information to people outside the government, CBS News has learned.Sources say Nada Nadim Prouty, a Lebanese national and resident of
Virginia, entered the United States on a student visa and earned
citizenship through a sham marriage.While officials say there is no evidence of actual espionage and no
evidence that she was working as a spy, she is accused of passing
information to sympathizers of Hezbollah, a group the U.S. has labeled a terrorist organization.Sources say she came under suspicion after performing a number of
computer searches unrelated to cases she had been assigned to.According to a Justice Department press release [DS: which is filled with self-congratulations by agents and DoJ officials who allowed her to remain on the job for FOUR years after they knew she was a spy], Prouty pleaded guilty
in the Eastern District of Michigan to charges of fraudulently obtaining U.S. citizenship, which she later used to gain employment at the FBI and CIA; accessing a federal computer system to unlawfully query information about her relatives and the terrorist organization Hezbollah; and conspiracy to defraud the United States.
Oh, and by the way, a later draft of the same CBS report says this:
She used her access as an FBI agent to look up information about herself and her relatives, some of whom may have ties to Hezbollah. She also is accused of improperly taking classified information home with her.
Nice. She works for the FBI, AND she and her family work for Hezbollah. Like I said, hurray for those awesome FBI background checks of agents. Alhamdillullah [Praise Allah]!
Let's see what kind of sentence she gets. Don't hold your breath for them to throw the book at this poor Hezbollah-loving traitor. I predict a lot of lenience and a relatively paltry sentence for her.
The fact that she's being "prosecuted" in the Eastern District of Michigan, the domain of Hezbollah-sympathizing U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy III a/k/a Abu Porno, means that they probably knew for several years that she was spying for Hezbollah and waited until she got all the goods before they moved on her. That's Murphy's standard M.O. for his Hezbo buds.
And please explain this part to me:
While officials say there is no evidence of actual espionage and no evidence that she was working as a spy, she is accused of passing information to sympathizers of Hezbollah, a group the U.S. has labeled a terrorist organization.
Um, call me stupid, but if "passing information to sympathizers of Hezbollah" is not "evidence of actual espionage" or "evidence that she was working as a spy," then what the hell is? That quote above is one of the dumbest yet I've read coming out of the incompetent "Justice" Department.
