Director of National Intelligence Lied to Congress About Muslim Brotherhood Contacts

There’s apparently a long list of things that DNI Clapper lied to Congress about, but as Ryan Mauro at the Clarion Project reveals, Brotherhood contacts are also on the list.

The story of the deception began when the Director of National Intelligence James Clapper testified to Congress on February 10, 2011 saying that the Muslim Brotherhood is “a very heterogeneous group, largely secular, which has eschewed violence and has described Al-Qaeda as a perversion of Islam.”

In the same hearing, Clapper was asked by Rep. Jeff Miller (R-FL) about the administration’s relationship with the Muslim Brotherhood. He answered, “There have been outreaches to the Muslim community in general, but I guess we’re not aware of any direct outreach to these particular organizations. That is, if you’re speaking domestically.”

Was Clapper telling the truth?

Post put up at 12:45. As of 2:22 there are no comments. Probably because no one is surprised. Lying liars lie. We have come to expect and accept it. Thanks, Obama! If you like your lying DNI Clapper, you can keep your lying DNI Clapper. No, wait, that was a lie, or was it?
