CIA Chief John Brennan’s Emails Revealed by WikiLeaks, No Blows Found

John Brennan's personal email account was leaked by WikiLeaks on Wednesday that did not contain any shocking details about the US Intelligence or any classified material. It did, however, include a draft paper addressed to the President to "tone down" speechmaking on the sensitive topic of Iran. In another draft paper, the challenges faced by the intelligence after 9/11 have been highlighted. This paper was written n 2007 but the author has not been mentioned. At this time, Brennan was serving the Obama campaign as a national security advisor. One more document has been revealed that too dates back to 2007 outlining the suggestions on intelligence related to Iran, reported NBC New York.

Brennan had published a paper in an academic journal in 2008 with the same name and the same text. The only addition was Zbigniew Brzezinski, national security advisor to President Carter as one of the potential negotiators. "If WikiLeaks would release his paper, it might actually cause some people to read it," said Brennan, as per NBC News.

Both the documents that have been released by WikiLeaks, one on Iran and the other on post 9/11 are incomplete drafts. The other two documents that were a part of WikiLeaks dump related to atrocities were not written by Brennan but the then Senator, Kit Bond. One of the documents is a proposal for interrogation methods to be used in the future that are not forbidden by the Army Field Manual and the other one is a bill text dating back to May 2008 which puts a cap on interrogation techniques. There is another document that reveals a contractual dispute between CIA and Brennan's private firm in 2007, as per Hot Beak.
