No word yet on when the investigation of these new "leaks" will commence... and no apparent awareness on the part of these reporters for the irony of their own story giving details about Valerie Wilson Plame.
The spy allegedly outed by a White House leaker is an attractive blond with Bond-girl looks who ran overseas operations and recruited agents for the CIA, sources told the Daily News.Posted by Alan at October 3, 2003 05:21 PMTwo former senior intelligence officials confirmed that Valerie Plame, 40, is an operations officer in the spy agency's directorate of operations - the clandestine service.
Plame "ran intelligence operations overseas," said Vincent Cannistraro, former CIA counterterrorism operations chief.
Her specialty in the agency's nonproliferation center was biological, chemical and nuclear weapons and "recruiting agents, sending them to areas where they could access information about proliferation matters, weapons of mass destruction," Cannistraro said.
The mother of 3-year-old twins, Plame turns heads when she steps into a room, sources said. "She has classic good looks: very shapely, long legs and blond shoulder-length hair," a source said. "She would be a star in her own Hollywood picture."
