Once upon a time, John Guandolo was an FBI agent until he was supposedly forced out after the Bureau was taken over by those with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. Since then, he has gone on to become a full-time anti-Islam activist of high-regard among the Right.
The fact that Guandolo – while working on the corruption case against former Rep. William Jefferson, engaged in a sexual relationship with a key witness and resigned before he could be questioned about it – seems to have, in no way, damaged his credibility, which is why WND is reporting Guandolo’s latest claim that John Brennan, President Obama’s nominee to head the CIA, converted to Islam when he served in Saudi Arabia as the “culmination of a counterintelligence operation against him to recruit him”:
“Mr. Brennan did convert to Islam when he served in an official capacity on the behalf of the United States in Saudi Arabia,” Guandolo told interviewer and radio host Tom Trento.
“That fact alone is not what is most disturbing,” Guandolo continued. “His conversion to Islam was the culmination of a counterintelligence operation against him to recruit him. The fact that foreign intelligence service operatives recruited Mr. Brennan when he was in a very sensitive and senior U.S. government position in a foreign country means that he either a traitor … [or] he has the inability to discern and understand how to walk in those kinds of environments, which makes him completely unfit to the be the director of Central Intelligence.”
