Intel. Chief Orders Internal Review After Bomb Plot Leaks | Director of National Intelligence James Clapper has ordered an internal review of leaks regarding a plot to blow up a U.S. bound airliner by an Al Qaeda affiliate in Yemen. The review will determine whether the leak, which revealed that a Saudi intelligence agent infiltrated Al Qaeda and volunteered for the suicide mission, came out of any of the 16 sixteen U.S. intelligence agencies overseen by Clapper. “We are looking internally to determine whether or not there were unauthorized disclosures of unclassified information,” an unnamed U.S. intelligence told CNN.
