Whistleblower fired from CENTCOM after speaking out against how data was cooked to downplay ISIS threat

Whistleblower fired from CENTCOM after speaking out against how data was cooked to downplay ISIS threat, by Nancy Youssef.

An employee at the U.S. military’s [Central Command’s] Joint Intelligence office says she was reassigned, supposedly for cursing at work, after speaking out about cherry-picked ISIS war intel.

And then, when, some believe, she spoke up about cherry-picked intelligence in the ISIS war, she was drummed out of her job—allegedly for cursing twice in the span of the year.

Really? For cursing?

[I]f cursing were really a fireable offense in the military, every soldier, sailor, Marine, and Defense Department civilian would have to be sent home. …

The case suggested that, at CENTCOM, there are two wars being waged: one against ISIS and a separate internal fight between whistleblowers and commanders.
