CIA Station Chief in Algeria Investigated for Raping, Videotaping His Muslim Victims
By Susie Madrak Thursday Jan 29, 2009 6:00amUnbelievable. Someone whose job was to further the interests of the U.S. in Algeria really did a number on us instead:
The CIA's station chief at its sensitive post in Algeria is under investigation by the U.S. Justice Department for allegedly raping at least two Muslim women who claim he laced their drinks with a knock-out drug, U.S. law enforcement sources tell ABC News.
Officials say the 41-year old CIA officer, a convert to Islam, was ordered home by the U.S. Ambassador, David Pearce, in October after the women came forward with their rape allegations in September.
The discovery of more than a dozen videotapes showing the CIA officer engaged in sex acts with other women has led the Justice Department to broaden its investigation to include at least one other Arab country, Egypt, where the CIA officer had been posted earlier in his career, according to law enforcement officials.

I'd like to see the secret Justice Dept. legal opinion that covers this.
This man should be subject to Islamic law, as Algeria is a Muslim country. If tried and convicted of rape, he can be killed by stoning.
Maybe they would just stone the women.

Iran kills at least 2 gay men a week. This is a huge issue for Amnesty International.
The same 2 gay men?
This is according to EU agencies who help gay Iranians get attain asylum.
LMAORFL ys
every week! same two.
there have to be witnesses
i think that since there werent, he has to marry the women
much worse punishment
I believe this is what Rush or O'Reilly would do if they were charged with protecting our country.
Rush would lace the little Algerian boys orange juice with liquid X.
This is where he goes to get high and entertain teenage boys.
No, that's the Dominican Republic.

Remember Limpdick Limbaugh being arrested with Viagra? The Dominican Republic is where he bought it and was returning from.
O'Reilly has to harass Andrea Mackris over the phone, and Jessica Alba by proxy.
He doesn't have the equipment to do it for real, to anyone. (Not that 'Hey! I've got the stones to be a rapist!' is a prize anyone should be competing for, but I wouldn't put it past Bill-O.)
RUSH L is an OXY-CONTIN-MORON...
who gives a shit what he would do... he is a convicted asshole
are the same for Muslim Republicans as they are for Christian Republicans.
Man enjoyed his work so much, he took it home with him.
...that there are any head cases in the cloak and dagger business, isn't it?
... to the perpetrator.
If these women were unmarried and keeping company with another male other than a family member, isn't that against Shari'a law?
The perpetrator probably figured none of his victims would admit to being raped, because that meant they were already breaking the law.
was married.
But the fact that it was alcoholic drinks that he spiked could be a big problem for them too, that may have been a factor for them not complaining as well.
workers sociopaths, or just 99% of them?
We cannot prosecute this man! We must look forward not into the past. We certainly don’t want CIA employees looking over their shoulder as they do their “job.”
and getting raped is really no different than a shopping trip to West Hollywood.
Off topic, I wonder if Laura Bush still thinks George is suffering more than anyone now that he is retired as Chief Commanderer?
Ahh George and Laura. The million to one relationship.
(George Bush over 1 million killed, Laura Bush only one man killed)
I'll bet Laura brings up those stats during their arguments.
Heck he probably sent copies of the videos to Dead-Dick Dick Cheney so it'll be covered by Cheneys Executive Privilage. Even though according to Cheney the VP isn't part of the Executive except when he needs Executive Privilage. Can we frigging try, convict and sentence the criminals of the Bush administration yet????? Like NOW!!!!!!!!!!
That what would be what they call a "successful mission".
the american workers are being raped daily by this government !welcome to the good old boys sex club!
I wonder what an Arab must think when they see this story and two weeks ago the American business channel (CNBC) does a series of shows about the porn industry and the porn industry approaches the government for a bailout (easy to believe it was serious watching from abroad).
Makes this guy's behavior look culturally correct.
and don't blame anyone (ie, Bush) for him. This guy's a creep.
They found pills in the guys pad that were consistent with rophynal, the Mexican date-rate drug, or as they are known in the slang..."Roofies".
And they found the video tapes of these women in his apartment. They appeared partially conscious as he had sex with him.
They guy should be fried. Nice and toasty.
(Actually, I'm against the death penalty. Life in prison with no possibility of parole. Any guy who does this to a woman should get the same sentence. It is unforgiveable.)
might be kith and kin to the child rapist interrogator there, who filmed himself sodomizing a kid.
They did this to freak out and soften up the 'playing card' VIP Iraqis or ones who might know where they were hiding, abusing their also imprisoned children.
That awful factoid came out during one of the prisoner trials.
Who could have predicted that if you set up a secret police, they will eventually act like a secret police? You shield people behind a veil of secrecy because you want them to do things that are immoral and illegal, and, amazingly enough, they end up using that veil of secrecy, and the tools of power we give them, to do immoral and illegal things! But wait, you say, they are only supposed to do these immoral and illegal things on our behalf. We have been betrayed because they went out and tortured to feed their own dark urges, rather than ours. Well, I understand that it's terrible that one simply can't get good domestic help anymore, but, you know, this is a slightly different matter. In this case a qualification for the job is the ability to throw off the restrictions of bourgeois morality. You have to expect people who will betray what they learned on their mother's knee to have little problem betraying people who, after all, are only fellow low-lifes, people like you and me who hire murderers and torturers and rapists rather than doing ther own dirty work.
So please, no sanctimony. Abolish the CIA, and all of our secret police forces, or sit down and shut up.
i agree ! these bastards have become no better then drug dealers ,pimps , and assasins , its time to shed the skin from our snakes!
Isn't that Muslim for booty call?
Time for a bris?
Good luck running a secure country without any intelligence agencies.
That said, there has always been dissent inside the CIA about how far they should go and where it crosses the line from making the country more secure to making it less secure. Yes, fall out from torture and assassinations can do that. Some of what came out in the Church Committee is from documents and testimony from individuals involved who wanted more oversight so that they would not be asked to do things that would indeed make matters worse later.
Like yes, mass tortures that would be exposed.
Now, the committee responding and then putting Bush Sr in charge is in retrospect a real head-slapper.
I'm more worried about agencies that don't want oversight. Like the security branch started in the pentagon under dubya (which was thankfully dismantled), and the military contractors who are legally above the laws here and abroad. You know they have their own intelligence units? Yes that link is Blackwater owned.
They are taking people from the defunct Pentagon unit and the CIA. That's scary. An intelligence unit there has no rules, no laws and no accountability. The CIA is answerable to the government, and at times in its history CIA personnel have gone around superiors to legal counsel make sure they got it. Blackwater employees have no such recourse.
The guy in this story is obviously a really bad apple, not defensible. And yeah, the CIA is just as clearly hanging him out to dry.
Watch him. If he gets off, find out of he joins Blackwater. Its one thing to outsource customer support. But outsource intelligence??? I don't have enough proper or printable adjectives for that kind of stupidity.
Recalled him? Just like the other CIA criminals wanted by the Italian government, but allowed to hide in the US? And those who set "foreign policy" wonder why the US has no credibility.
Even worse, this will probably inflame the muslim fundamentalists in Algeria to the point where they overthrow the military government, making things even worse in the region.
The smart thing to do (which the US won't do) is to rendition the bastard back to Algeria and let him face trial there.
(Self-edited to appease the site owners. But really, couldn't you see this coming - people calling for his head - given the content of the news?)
Guys, hold up. While Algeria is officially a Muslim country, in practice, it is not what yall think it is. It has NO Shariah Law, and is very very Western. Algeria in fact has a wannabee-French syndrome. yeah, I know, here in America, who the Hell would wanna be French,. lol. But really, I have friends in the Algerian Military, and they are fightin Islamist rebels, but that is the only source of extremism in Algeria. The rebels wanna impose Taliban like Islam, however, the status qupo is very very liberal. And if anything, this CIA guy will get off the hook from the legal authorities in Algeria.
So now worries mate, lol, Algeria is far from being like Iran, ideologically speaking. Way far from it.
Wanna bet? The fundy muslims who won an election a decade ago wanted to enact Sharia law but were thwarted by a military coup and the current dictatorship.
The majority of Algerians voted for such a government. Don't be surprised if such goings-on exist outside of Algeirs.
Francophallic?
I don't give a damn what country a man is from he has no rights to rape women like that. It puts shame on the man and the country he comes from. I am ashamed he is an american and he should be shot. We don't need him coming back to our country and continuing this kind of stuff on american women. [Deleted-Sitemonitor]
I agree... personal threats are over the line...even for a rapist scumbag like this Andrew Warren character.... and, as I cannot suggest such a thing.... I would suggest that the solution would be to drop him into the middle of public square in the middle of Algiers... and of course post the date and location of the event in the local newspapers. Far be it for me to personally wish the man physical harm..
It is no different than what he did to those muslim women who by the way can be stoned to death for something that was against their will.
OMG, that is so terrible for those poor women. :(
And it is also bad because as much as the Bush Administration went on and on about liberating women in the Muslim World from oppression, and setting America up as the epitome of a woman-respecting nation, somehow I don't think this is what Algerian women having to deal with "men" like this, and the American women who read about it, ever had in mind...
