AIPAC scandal update. Pretty big.

Just go read this, it's not that long, and pretty well sketches out everything from the official indictments. Bottom line, it's much, much bigger than Franklin, Weissman, and Rosen.


But as the full text of the indictment makes clear, the conspiracy involved not just Franklin and the AIPAC officials, Steve Rosen and Keith Weissman, but at least several other Pentagon officials who played intermediary roles, at least two other Israeli officials, and one official at a "Washington, D.C. think tank." It's an old-fashioned spy story involving the passing of secret documents, hush-hush meetings and outright espionage, along with good-old-boy networking.
