Grassroots Effort to Help CIA - HUMAN EVENTS

Grassroots Effort to Help CIA - HUMAN EVENTS: "A grassroots group of retired military people and everyday citizens has banded together to end the Obama administration's persecution of CIA officers overseas who risk their lives in a war against al Qaeda.

The group, StandwithIntelligence.com, sprung up last month as a counter to the Obama administration's decision to appoint a special prosecutor to re-investigate officers involved in harsh interrogations of al Qaeda kingpins.

Seven former CIA directors, under both Democratic and Republican presidents, urged President Obama not to go back on a campaign promise not to target the officers. But the president changed his mind and let Attorney General Holder reopen an investigation which had been closed for lack of evidence of wrongdoing by career prosecutors."
