Saturday, June 7th, 2008 週六， 2008年6月7日

By通過 John Walcott約翰沃爾科特 | Defense Department counterintelligence investigators suspected that Iranian exiles who provided dubious intelligence on Iraq and Iran to a small group of Pentagon officials might have “been used as agents of a foreign intelligence service … to reach into and influence the highest levels of the US government,” a Senate Intelligence Committee report said Thursday.A top aide to then-secretary of defense Donald H. Rumsfeld, however, shut down the 2003 investigation into the Pentagon officials’ activities after only a month, and the Defense Department’s top brass never followed up on the investigators’ recommendation for a more thorough investigation, the Senate report said. |國防部反情報調查人員懷疑，伊朗流亡者，誰提供的可疑的情報對伊拉克和伊朗的一小群五角大樓的官員有可能“被用來作為代理的一個外國情報機構服務… …以達到融入和影響力最高級別的美國政府， “參議院情報委員會報告說， thursday.a高級助手當時的局長國防部長拉姆斯菲爾德，不過，關機2003年的調查，五角大樓官員的活動後僅一個月，和國防部的高層從未隨訪對調查人員的建議，為更徹底的調查，美國參議院的報告說。

The revelation raises questions about whether Iran may have used a small cabal of officials in the Pentagon and in Vice President Dick Cheney’s office to feed bogus intelligence on Iraq and Iran to senior policymakers in the Bush administration who were eager to oust the Iraqi dictator.啟示提出了質疑伊朗是否可能使用一個小陰謀集團的官員在五角大樓和在美國副總統切尼的辦公室飼料假情報，伊拉克和伊朗的高級決策者，在布什政府誰們踴躍推翻伊拉克獨裁者。

Iran, which was a mortal enemy of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein and fought a bloody eight-year war with Iraq during his reign, has been the primary beneficiary of US policy in Iraq, where Iranian-backed groups now run much of the government and the security forces.伊朗，這是一個致命的敵人，伊拉克獨裁者薩達姆侯賽因和打了血腥的長達八年的兩伊戰爭期間，他的統治，一直是主要受益者，美國的政策在伊拉克，伊朗支持的團體來說，現在的許多政府和安全部隊。

The aborted counterintelligence investigation probed some Pentagon officials’ contacts with Iranian exile Manucher Ghorbanifar, whom the CIA had labeled a “fabricator” in 1984.流產的反調查，探索了一些五角大樓的官員接觸，與伊朗流亡manucher戈爾巴尼法爾，其中，中情局標示“製造商”在1984年。 Those contacts were brokered by an American civilian, Michael Ledeen, a former Pentagon and National Security Council consultant and a leading advocate of invading Iraq and overthrowing Iran’s Islamic regime.這些接觸促成了一個美國平民，邁克爾萊丁，前五角大樓和國家安全委員會的顧問和領導主張入侵伊拉克，推翻伊朗的伊斯蘭政權。

According to the Senate report, the Pentagon’s Counterintelligence Field Activity unit concluded in 2003 that Ledeen “was likely unwitting of any counterintelligence issues related to his relationship with Mr. Ghorbanifar.”根據參議院的報告，五角大樓的反間諜活動領域的單位，結束了在2003年萊丁“可能是在不知情的任何反相關的問題，他與先生戈爾巴尼法爾” 。

The counterintelligence unit said, however, that Ledeen’s association with Ghorbanifar “was widely known, and therefore it should be presumed other foreign intelligence services, including those of Iran, would know.”該反單位說，不過，萊丁的協會與戈爾巴尼法爾“是廣為人知，因此，應推定其他外國情報機構服務，包括伊朗，都會知道” 。

Stephen Cambone, then the undersecretary of defense for intelligence, shut down the counterintelligence investigation after only a month, the Senate report said.斯蒂芬坎博內，那麼，副國防部長，負責情報事務關機反間諜調查後僅一個月，美國參議院的報告說。

The Senate report said that Pentagon officials never followed up on the investigators’ recommendation for a comprehensive analysis of whether Ghorbanifar or his associates tried “to directly or indirectly influence or access US government officials.”參議院的報告說，五角大樓的官員從來沒有跟進，對調查人員的建議，為了全面的分析，是否戈爾巴尼法爾或他的同夥試圖“以直接或間接地影響或訪問的美國政府官員” 。

The counterintelligence investigators recommended that US officials attempt “to map Ghorbanifar’s relationship within Iranian elite social networks and, if possible, his contacts with other governments and/or intelligence organizations,” but that effort was never undertaken.該反間諜調查人員建議說，美國官員企圖“地圖戈爾巴尼法爾的關係，伊朗精英的社會網絡，如果可能的話，他的接觸，與其他國家政府和/或情報機構” ，但這種努力從來沒有承諾。

The Senate committee also found that Pentagon officials concealed the contacts with Ghorbanifar from the CIA, the Defense Intelligence Agency and the State Department.參議院外交委員會還發現，五角大樓的官員隱瞞了接觸戈爾巴尼法爾從中央情報局，國防情報局和國務院。 Pentagon officials also provided Senate investigators with an inaccurate account of events and, with support from two unnamed officials in Cheney’s office, continued meeting with Ghorbanifar after contact with him was officially ordered to stop.五角大樓的官員也提供了參議院的調查是不準確的帳戶的事件，並支持由兩個無名官員在切尼的辦公室，會議繼續與戈爾巴尼法爾接觸後，與他正式下令停止。

The first meetings with Ghorbanifar, which were disclosed in August 2003 by the Long Island, NY, newspaper Newsday, took place in Rome in December 2001.第一次會議，與戈爾巴尼法爾，其中透露，在2003年8月由長島，紐約州，報紙，新聞日報，發生在羅馬在2001年12月。 They were attended by two Pentagon Iran experts, Harold Rhode and Larry Franklin; by an Italian military intelligence official, and by Ledeen.他們出席了兩個五角大樓伊朗專家，哈羅德羅德島和拉里富蘭克林;由一名意大利軍事情報官員，以及萊丁。

On the Iranian side were Ghorbanifar, an unidentified Iranian exile from Morocco and an alleged Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps defector.對伊朗方面分別戈爾巴尼法爾，一名身份不明的伊朗流亡來自摩洛哥和指稱伊朗革命衛隊軍團叛離。

Among other things, the Iranians told the Americans about:除其他事項外，伊朗人告訴美國人有關：

• Iranian “hit teams” they said were targeting US personnel and facilities in Afghanistan.伊朗“打隊” ，他們說，被針對美國人員和設施在阿富汗。
• What they claimed was Shiite Muslim Iran’s longstanding relationship with the secular Palestine Liberation Organization.他們自稱是什葉派穆斯林，伊朗的長期的合作關係，與世俗的巴勒斯坦解放組織。
• “Tunnel complexes in Iran for weapons storage or exfiltration of regime leaders,” and about the alleged growth of anti-regime sentiment in Iran. “隧道複合物在伊朗的武器儲存或exfiltration政權領導人， ”約所稱的增長，反政權的情緒，在伊朗的工作。

Franklin, who, in an unrelated matter, pleaded guilty and was sentenced to prison in 2006 for providing classified information on Iran policy to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, passed the information about the alleged Iranian hit squads to a US Special Forces commander in Afghanistan.富蘭克林，誰，在一個無關的事，承認控罪，被判處監獄在2006年提供的機密資料對伊朗的政策，向美國以色列公共事務委員會，通過了有關指稱伊朗隊擊中一個美軍特種部隊指揮官在阿富汗。 Although a DIA analyst told the Senate committee that he couldn’t speculate on whether the information had been “truly useful,” Ledeen and Pentagon officials claimed it saved American lives, the committee said.During the Rome meetings, Ghorbanifar also laid out a scheme to overthrow the Iranian regime on a napkin during a late night meeting in a bar.雖然直徑分析師告訴參議院委員會說，他無法猜測，資料是否已“真正有用的， ”萊丁和五角大樓官員聲稱，它節省了美國人的生命，委員會said.during在羅馬的會議，戈爾巴尼法爾還制定了一個計劃要推翻伊朗政權對一餐巾紙，在深夜的會議在一間酒吧。 “The plan,” said the Senate committee, “involved the simultaneous disruption of traffic at key intersections leading to Tehran that would create anxiety, work stoppages and other disruptive measures” in a capital city famous for its traffic congestion. “計劃，說： ”參議院外交委員會“ ，所涉及的同時中斷交通的關鍵路口，導致德黑蘭將造成焦慮，停工及其他破壞性的措施， ”在一個首都城市以其交通擠塞的情況。

Ghorbanifar asked for $5 million in seed money, Franklin told the committee, and indicated that if the traffic jam plan succeeded, he’d need additional money.戈爾巴尼法爾要求500萬美元的種子資金，富蘭克林告訴委員會，並表示，如果塞車的計劃成功，他要需要額外的金錢。

“The proposed funding for, and foreign involvement in, Mr. Ghorbanifar’s plan for regime change were never fully understood,” the Senate committee said. “經費的建議，和外國的參與，戈爾巴尼法爾先生的計劃，改變政權從未被充分認識， ”參議院外交委員會說。

Nevertheless, Ghorbanifar’s proposals grew more ambitious — and expensive.不過，戈爾巴尼法爾的建議，增長了更為雄心勃勃的-和昂貴。 A February 2002 memo from Assistant Secretary of Defense Peter Rodman referred to an unnamed foreign government’s support for a Ghorbanifar plan that would cost millions of dollars. 1 2002年2月的備忘錄，從助理國防部長彼得羅德曼轉交給一個無名外國政府的支持，為戈爾巴尼法爾計劃，將花費數百萬美元。 A later summary referred to contracts “that would assure oil and gas sales in the event of regime change”.稍後簡要提及的合同“這將保證石油和天然氣的銷售，在發生政權更替” 。 The US ambassador to Italy said that DOD officials “were talking about 25 million for some kind of Iran program.”美國駐意大利大使說，美國國防部官員“談到2500萬美元，為一些種伊朗計劃” 。

After Franklin and Rhode returned from the Rome meetings, the Senate report said, two series of events began to unfold in Washington that were typical of the gamesmanship that plagued the Bush administration’s national security team.之後，富蘭克林和羅得返回從羅馬會議上，參議院的報告說，兩個系列的事件開始，開展在華盛頓說，是典型的gamesmanship認為，困擾布什政府的國家安全團隊。

“First,” the report said, “State Department and CIA officials attempted to determine what Mr. Ledeen and the DOD representatives had done in Rome, and second, DOD officials debated the next course of action.” “首先， ”報告說， “美國國務院和中央情報局的官員試圖確定什麼先生萊丁和國防部的代表做了在羅馬，和第二，美國國防部官員討論未來的行動方向” 。

When the CIA and the State Department discovered that Ledeen and Ghorbanifar were involved, they opposed any further contact with the two.當中央情報局和國務院發現萊丁和戈爾巴尼法爾參與，他們反對任何進一步的接觸與兩間。 Ledeen’s contacts, the Defense Human Intelligence Service concluded, were “nefarious and unreliable,” the Senate committee reported.萊丁的接觸，國防部人力情報服務結束後，被“邪惡的和不可靠的， ”參議院外交委員會的報告。

According to the report, Ledeen, however, persisted, presenting then-Undersecretary of Defense Douglas Feith with a new 100-day plan to provide, among other things, evidence of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction that supposedly had been moved to Iran — Saddam Hussein’s archenemy.根據該報告，萊丁，不過，堅持，介紹了當時的副國防部長道格拉斯費思，與一個新的100天計劃提供，除其他事項外，證據顯示伊拉克大規模殺傷性武器表示，假定已轉移到伊朗-薩達姆侯賽因奇摩的大敵。 This time, the report said, Ledeen solicited support from former speaker of the House of Representatives Newt Gingrich and from three then-GOP senators, Sam Brownback of Kansas, Jon Kyl of Arizona and Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania.這個時候，報告說，萊丁徵求支持由前眾議院議長紐特金里奇的代表和從三個當時的共和黨參議員薩姆布朗巴克堪薩斯州，瓊kyl亞利桑那州和里克山托蘭的賓夕法尼亞州。

Rhode and Ghorbanifar met again in Paris in June 2003 with at least the tacit approval of an official in Cheney’s office, the Senate report said.羅德島和戈爾巴尼法爾再次舉行會談，在巴黎2003年6月，至少有默契批准，正式在切尼的辦公室，參議院的報告說。

He reported back to officials in the Pentagon and the vice president’s office, but “there is no indication that the information collected during the Paris meeting was shared with the Intelligence Community for a determination of potential intelligence value,” the report said.他報告回的官員在五角大樓和副總統辦公室，但“目前並無跡象顯示，所收集的資料在巴黎會議是共享與情報社會的決心，潛在的情報價值， ”該報告稱。
