Jason Amerine, Green Beret aiming to free U.S. hostages, caught in FBI web
Sunday June 14th, 2015 at 11:32 PM

1 Share
When Lt. Col. Jason Amerine, a decorated Green Beret, took the big step last summer of contacting a member of Congress on the gnawing question of freeing American hostages, he never suspected the bureaucratic minefield that awaited him, especially from the FBI.
The decision proved just as life-changing as his prominent role in the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan and the famous union of a young A-team captain and future Afghan President Hamid Karzai.
Col. Amerine now finds himself banished from the Pentagon, where he sought to shake up theObama administration to do a better job of rescuing captives.
In the spotlight last week, he told a Senate panel that he, in effect, feels betrayed by the FBI, which he said filed false accusations against him with his Army superiors. A congressional staffer said theFBI played hardball in a turf battle to force the officer “back into his lane.” Col. Amerine believes theArmy is bent on court-martialing him once the Criminal Investigation Command finishes its probe.
His exile has its roots in his frustration with what he considered a “dysfunctional” hostage-freeing process scattered among multiple agencies, including the FBI, the Pentagon and the State Department.
He began a communications stream with a man known for action, Rep. Duncan Hunter, a California Republican and former Marine officer who has gone to bat for a number of service members he believed were mistreated by the top brass.
Out of those discussions came progress. Mr. Hunter persuaded the Pentagon to appoint a senior civilian to oversee hostage negotiations or military actions. He is winning votes for a bill that would direct the administration to appoint a hostage czar. The White House agreed to review the entire process whose flaws, Republicans say, became obvious when President Obama traded five Taliban chieftains for one Army sergeant — Bowe Bergdahl, an accused deserter.
In the course of trying to jolt the system, Col. Amerine became a casualty. Mr. Hunter set up a meeting for him with FBI officials last summer. The officer later described the meeting as “cordial.”
But the next thing he knew, the FBI filed a formal complaint with Army headquarters, accusing him of sharing classified information with Mr. Hunter, a member of the House Armed Services Committee.
In January, the Army escorted him from his office, stripped his security clearance, stuck him in a desk job in Crystal City and unleashed a criminal investigation.
Mr. Hunter’s staff viewed it as the kind of snafu that could have been worked out inside the Army. Instead, Joe Kasper, chief of staff, said the Army is getting back at the congressman for the battles he has waged against a defective intelligence network system and on behalf of soldiers punished byArmy Secretary John McHugh.
At last week’s hearing before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee,Mr. Hunter seated himself directly behind the Green Beret at the witness table.
The officer testified that he believed the Army was violating his rights under the Military Whistleblower Protection Act.
He told of having high hopes that the FBI would join him in consolidating the hostage-freeing business.
“I continued to work with Rep. Hunter’s office to repair our dysfunctional hostage recovery efforts,” he said. “He set up a meeting between my office and the FBI. The meeting appeared to be cordial, but the FBI formally complained to the Army that information I was sharing with Rep. Hunter was classified. It was not.”
Then Col. Amerine told of the FBI’s motive. Basically, it did not like him playing on its turf.
“After my criminal investigation began, the FBI admitted to Rep. Hunter that they had the utmost respect for our work but they had to put me in my place,” he testified. “Again, the FBI made serious allegations of misconduct to the Army in order to put me in my place and readily admitted that to a U.S. congressman.”
An FBI spokesman at Washington headquarters declined to comment to The Washington Times.
Its complaint sparked political intrigue inside Army headquarters as officials debated what to do withCol. Amerine, one of its better-known soldiers who was awarded the Purple Heart and Bronze Star, with a combat V for valor, for leading his troops on a drive to Kandahar.
He testified that “one party” in particular wanted him investigated.
A source said he identified that officer as Lt. Gen. Mary A. Legere, head of Army intelligence, in a complaint to the Pentagon inspector general. She had butted heads with Mr. Hunter on the service’s development of a faulty intelligence computer network.
Grating the FBI further was the fact that during Mr. Hunter’s communications with Col. Amerine, the congressman accused the administration — thus the FBI — of paying ransom for Sgt. Bergdahl. He asked the inspector general to investigate.
“So part of what lit the fuse was the same folks in the FBI that were basically implicated in the DOD I.G. complaint of 1 December were the ones that later complained to the Army that I was sharing sensitive information with Representative Hunter,” Col. Amerine said. “Another aspect of it on theFBI’s side was, I think, just the general frustration with Representative Hunter pushing them hard on civilian hostages and their awareness that I was speaking to Representative Hunter about all of this.”
Col. Amerine said that at one point, the FBI threatened the father of a captive not to speak to Mr. Hunter.
“I mean, just atrocious treatment of family,” he testified.
He also gave the public an inside look at internal hostage release debates.
He said his office was working on a blockbuster trade that would release Bergdahl and four others in exchange for Haji Bashar Noorzai, a notorious Afghan heroin smuggler whom the U.S. enticed to enter the U.S. in 2005 and then arrested him. Imprisoned for life, he had worked with U.S. forces fighting the Taliban.
“So we were able to reach out to the Noorzai tribe itself that we believed could free the hostages, and we made a lot of progress on it,” he testified. “I briefed it widely, but in the end, when the Taliban came to the table, the State Department basically said it must be the five for one. That’s the only viable option we have. And that’s what we went with.”
Ironically, on the same day Col. Amerine was evicted from his office, the U.S. mistakenly killed American hostage Warren Weinstein via a missile strike on an al Qaeda hideout in Pakistan.
Five Americans have been killed in captivity since 2001, four at the hands of extremists.
“We were the only DOD effort actively trying to free the civilian hostages in Pakistan, and the FBIsucceeded in ending our efforts the day the dysfunction they sought to protect killed Warren Weinstein,” Col. Amerine testified.
The officer testified that the Army “will not uphold this soldier’s right to speak to Congress” under the whistleblower act.
“The outpouring of support from fellow service members has been humbling,” he said. “Worst for me is that the cadets I taught at West Point, now officers rising in the ranks, are reaching out to see if I’m OK. I feared for their safety when they went to war, and now they fear for my safety in Washington.”
Col. Amerine has filed a whistleblower retaliation complaint with the Defense Department inspector general. In the complaint, he listed the pieces of information he provided Mr. Hunter. He said thePentagon’s Joint Staff, which works for the chairman of the Joint Chiefs Staff, concluded that there was no classified information.
Mr. Kasper, the congressman’s chief of state, said, “The Joint Staff already determined that all the information and sources within Amerine’s coordination with Rep. Hunter and Congress is unclassified. McHugh and his team have shown that they retaliate, and hide behind process, so there’s no confidence that the Army will actually do the right thing.”
Meanwhile, Mr. Hunter has asked the same inspector general to investigate whether the Army is springing accusations against personnel as pure retaliation.
Mr. Hunter wrote to Jon T. Rymer, the inspector general, about three soldiers, including Col. Amerine, against whom he believed Mr. McHugh retaliated. He asked for an inspector general’s investigation into Mr. McHugh’s use of the Criminal Investigation Command (CID).
“Specifically, my concern is that the Army — under the leadership of Secretary of the Army — has used CID for the purpose of influencing actions/outcomes and retaliating against soldiers,” he wrote.
“I have personally met with the Federal Bureau of Investigation on the developments leading up to the Army investigation,” Mr. Hunter told Mr. Rymer. “An investigation, I firmly believe, was not warranted but continues to be unjustifiably delayed.”
The Army referred The Times to CID to answer Mr. Hunter’s charge against Mr. McHugh.
Chris Grey, a spokesman for CID, said, “We reject any notion that Army CID initiates felony criminal investigations for any other purpose than to fairly and impartially investigate credible criminal allegations that have been discovered or brought forward.”
An Army spokesman has said, “As a matter of policy, we do not confirm the names of individuals who may or may not be under investigation to protect the integrity of a possible ongoing investigation, as well as the privacy rights of all involved. However, I note that both the law and Army policy would prohibit initiating an investigation based solely on a soldier’s protected communications withCongress.”
The Army told Mr. Hunter in a letter that it was investigating Col. Amerine for the unauthorized release of classified information, the charge leveled by the FBI.
“Am I right? Is the system broken?” Col. Amerine asked last week. “I believe we all failed the commander in chief by not getting critical advice to him. I believe we all failed the secretary of defense who likely never knew the extent of the interagency dysfunction that was our recovery effort.”

CIA Reorganizes to Target Islamic State
Sunday June 14th, 2015 at 10:28 PM

1 Share
McLEAN, Va.—Top Central Intelligence Agency officials are pressing spies, analysts, scientists and even economists into new teams as they broaden their efforts against Islamic State militants and other global threats.
The reorganization is part of a broader effort by director John Brennan to break down CIA “stove pipes” that have been in place for decades, which some felt isolated the agency’s secretive spy network from its internal religious experts, computer hackers, linguists, and others.
“As our analysts gain better insight into how ISIL is operating, that will inform the efforts of the people in the [spy division] who are charged with collecting additional information and intelligence about ISIL,” CIA Deputy Director David Cohen said in an interview, using another name for Islamic State. “It will help steer them into areas where we have gaps.”
The White House, Pentagon, and numerous intelligence agencies are re-evaluating how they combat Islamic State, which has expanded its reach and influence in the past year into more corners of Iraq and Syria, as well as North Africa, Europe, and Southeast Asia.
After Islamic State seized the Iraqi city of Ramadi in recent weeks and expanded into Anbar province, the Pentagon said it would send 450 additional U.S. troops to the area to accelerate the training of security forces. The State Department is pressing to keep an international coalition intact. But the CIA’s strategy largely has been secret.
Islamic State militants pose a much different terror threat than al Qaeda did in the early 2000s, using social media to win converts and a harder-to-stop financial strategy that uses extortion and war gains to fund operations, instead of tapping wealthy donors.
This model has made it a more difficult terror organization to stop, said current and former U.S. officials. The officials are hopeful that the CIA’s burgeoning structure will better prepare the agency to thwart the expanding terror group.
The CIA traditionally had dealt with organizations such as Islamic State through its Counterterrorism Center, a group of spies and analysts who worked to prevent imminent threats.
Mr. Brennan, however, wants to use the agency’s redesign to confront Islamic State through numerous new divisions, each of which has its own network of spies, analysts, linguists, computer and cultural experts.
For example, of the CIA’s 10 “mission centers”—it previously had just two—at least five will be tasked with combating Islamic State, including groups called “Near East,” “Europe and Eurasia,” “South and Central Asia,” and “Global Issues.”
CIA officials will be scrutinizing Islamic State’s foothold in Mosul, Iraq, its communication among fighters who return from Syria to Europe, as well as a group of religious experts who specialize in radical extremism.
A network of computer analysts will be assigned to each team to provide support, screen social media and develop spyware.
Such collaboration will help with “targeting our operations against the areas in ISIL where we think there are vulnerabilities,” Mr. Cohen said. As the agency’s spies “develop other information, [it] will feed back to our analysts.”
The restructuring so far is going well, he said, though the reviews from several former agency officials have been more mixed. Some said the changes were overdue, as the CIA largely had been operating under a personnel model put in place in the 1960s. But others said it would take much more time for the agency’s spies to feel comfortable working so closely with analysts and computer experts, as they tend to be more independent.
“I see it as a reflection of how the U.S. is reacting to the post-Arab spring world where the threats are multiplying and becoming more intractable,” said Bruce Hoffman, director of the security studies program at Georgetown University.
He said the various threats “aren’t so easily compartmentalized as they once were” and require more coordination among intelligence agencies.
Congress and the White House realigned intelligence agencies after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, pressing them to work more closely together and share information. But much of the focus was on preventing attacks and killing militant leaders.
CIA officials, however, believed more internal changes were necessary to maximize cooperation given the diverse threats, including Islamic State, but also Russia, China, and Iran.
These changes are unfolding as the CIA works to regain its footing after a series of scandals and setbacks.
Congressional Democrats blasted the agency last year over allegations that detainees had been abused while in CIA custody after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
And in May, the White House revealed that U.S. officials errantly had killed two hostages, including a U.S. citizen, during a drone strike in Pakistan. The White House didn’t identify the drone strike as a CIA program, but officials familiar with the incident confirmed it was carried out by the agency.
Much of the agency’s operations still remain covert and secret. Two unnamed CIA officials were killed in the line of duty last year, the agency recently revealed, though it wouldn’t say what they were doing or where they were killed.
Mr. Cohen, who joined the agency in February after spending six years at the Treasury Department, has already visited CIA stations in Asia and Africa, in addition to one “domestic station” that he would not identify, talking to officials about the changes and checking on staff morale.
Mr. Brennan and Mr. Cohen have stressed that the CIA reorganization is about much more than combating Islamic State because it would impact the agency’s teams focused on China, North Korea, and even South and Central America.
Islamic State, however, could pose the biggest near-term test for the CIA realignment, particularly given congressional pressure on the Obama administration to rethink its approach to battling the militants.
