Lala Publishes Excerpt of What May Be Blocked Leverett Article on Iran!

Edited on Sun Dec-17-06 12:32 PM by Cheney Killed Bambi
Someone sent Larisa Alexandrovna what appears to be the the Leverett article on Iran that the White House is blocking, even though it was cleared by the CIA

The White House has been blocking a New York Times op-ed by Flynt Leverett:

"Middle East analyst Flynt Leverett, who served under President Bush on the National Security Council and is now a fellow at the New America Foundation, revealed today that the White House has been blocking the publication of an op-ed he wrote for the New York Times. The column is critical of the administration’s refusal to engage Iran."

Today a reader sent in a document that given the date, may be the op-ed or at least what the op-ed is based on that is being blocked. I don't know if this is it, but but here it is for your reading pleasure: Dealing with Tehren.

Remember, this was cleared as not threatening to national security. So why is the NYT sitting on it?
