Nada Nadim Prouty, just another illegal immigrant, doing the spying that Americans won't do:
Nada Nadim Prouty, a 37-year-old Lebanese national and resident of Vienna, Va., pleaded guilty today 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 Hizballah; and conspiracy to defraud the United States.
According to documents filed in court by the government, Prouty first entered the United States from Lebanon on June 24, 1989, on a one-year, non-immigrant student visa. After her visa expired, she remained in the country, residing in Taylor, Mich., with her sister, Elfat El Aouar, and an individual named Samar Khalil Nabbouth. In order to remain in the United States and evade U.S. immigration laws, Prouty later offered money to an unemployed U.S. citizen to marry her. On August 9, 1990, Prouty married the U.S. citizen. As planned, Prouty never lived with her fraudulent “husband,” but continued to live with her sister and Nabbouth.
Prouty later submitted a series of false, fraudulent and forged documents and letters to federal immigration officials to verify the validity of the fraudulent marriage in order to obtain permanent residency status, and, later, U.S. citizenship, thereby committing naturalization fraud. On Aug. 5, 1994, the former Immigration and Naturalization Service granted Prouty U.S. citizenship under the name “Nada Nadim Deladurantaye.” The following year, she filed for a divorce from her fraudulent husband, and later obtained a U.S. passport, which she used to travel overseas.
In April 1999, through a series of false representations and use of her fraudulently procured proof of U.S. citizenship, Prouty, then known as “Nada Nadim Alley,” obtained employment as a special agent of the FBI. It was a prerequisite to FBI employment that she be a U.S. citizen. As a special agent with the FBI, Prouty was granted a security clearance and assigned to the FBI’s Washington Field Office to work on an extraterritorial squad investigating crimes against U.S. persons overseas. During her tenure with the FBI, Prouty was not assigned to work on investigations involving the international terrorist group Hizballah.
In August 2000, Prouty’s sister, Elfat El Aouar, entered into a marriage with Talal Khalil Chahine, the owner of La Shish Inc. In September 2000, Prouty, while employed as an FBI special agent, used the FBI’s computerized Automated Case System (ACS), without authorization, to query her own name, her sister’s name, and that of her brother-in-law, Talal Khalil Chahine. In addition, on or about June 4, 2003, Prouty accessed the FBI’s ACS and obtained information from a national security investigation into Hizballah that was being conducted by the FBI’s Detroit Field Office.
According to court documents, in August 2002, Prouty’s sister, Elfat El Aouar, and her brother-in-law, Talal Khalil Chahine, attended a fundraising event in Lebanon where the keynote speakers were Chahine himself and Sheikh Muhammad Hussein Fadlallah. Sheikh Fadlallah had previously been designated by the U.S. government as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist based upon his status as a leading ideological figure with Hizballah.
In June 2003, through a series of false representations and use of her fraudulently procured proof of U.S. citizenship, Prouty, then known as “Nada Nadim Prouty,” voluntarily left her position with the FBI and obtained employment with the CIA. It was also a prerequisite to CIA employment that she be a U.S. citizen.
--------
That's the story, according to the press release issued by the Department of Justice. How could such a thing happen? According to this article by CBS...
"She had a complete, full investigation," Kodak said, referring to the FBI's background check on Prouty before she was hired.
Oh well. I feel much better. After all, the FBI is completely trustworthy. Don't believe me? Just ask the CIA:
"The CIA may have been a little too trusting of the FBI's ability to do a background check, as the bureau's own pre-employment investigation of Prouty would have covered her first years in country," the official said. "That won't happen again."
According to mainstream media outlet CBS...
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 US has labeled a terrorist organization.
No evidence of actual espionage? Okay then. According to the Detroit News:
One of the allegations against Prouty is that while an FBI agent she went into a computer system
without authorization in 2003 and obtained information about the Detroit's FBI office's investigation of Hezbollah.Hezbollah, also known as the "Party of God," is an Islamic militant group based in Lebanon that has been designated a terrorist organization by the U.S. government since 1997.
Hezbollah, in addition to attacks on Israel, were blamed for the 1983 bombings of the U.S. embassy and Marine barracks in Lebanon, which killed 258 Americans.
The Shiite group has financial ties and other links with Iran.
No evidence of actual espionage? Prouty entered this country illegally, she lied and manipulated her way first into the FBI, and then into the CIA. Her family members are linked to a terrorist entity, Hezbollah, and her unauthorized computer searches concerned her family members and Hezbollah, and she took that classified information home with her and passed that information into the hands of a terrorist entity which is actively working to destroy America.
I guess it all depends on what your definition of "espionage" is.
Hat tip to Bloggie, who gave us the DOJ Press Release and sent my blood pressure through the roof.
remember... there is no terrorist threat.
You're perfectly safe. Don't you feel safe?

Remember that "Blastproof" room I mentioned in your earlier post?
I'm sure Samina Malik wouldn't mind the company.
I'm simply in a bit of a melancholy mood.
I'm sorry. The thought of assisting these poor souls in their quest to be with allah makes me feel a "little" bit better.
Yours,
Wollf

Dear LindaSOG,
I've read your blog for a long time, but this is my first comment.
Meet me at a certain place in Sarasota on Monday and I'll tell you what I know that you know that I want you to know, but that the jihadis don't know.
It's on the q.t., don't tell anyone. And please print and burn this comment when you get it, so nobody else sees it.
Remember, save the cheerleader.
