Washington, USA – A new book entitled “Treason: How John Brennan Endangered US Security for Millions”

has sparked widespread controversy in American political and security circles.

This comes after he made a series of serious allegations against former CIA Director John O. Brennan.

According to its author, John K. Donovan Sr., the book relies

on what he says are open-source documents.

Likewise, declassified press reports and government records,

without using any secret or legally prohibited materials.

long-term criminal scheme

The book presents a narrative accusing Brennan of running

a long-term criminal scheme aimed at manipulating sensitive intelligence protocols.

He also exploited his official responsibilities

during his work in President Barack Obama’s administration.

This was to increase the value of shares he owned – illegally,

according to the author – in a company contracted with the US government.

The book goes on to say that those shares, linked to a company formerly known

as “The Analysis Company” before changing its name to “Sutera Defense Solutions”,

Its value increased from fifty thousand dollars to about 4.85 million dollars in four years.

According to the author, the rise in the value of these stocks coincided

with an increase in congressional allocations.

This is for counter-terrorism programs following a number of attacks i

n the United States and its ally Norway.

Brennan and important intelligence information

The book claims that obstructing the flow of crucial intelligence information

within US national security agencies allowed attacks such as:

The attempted bombing of an airplane in 2009, the Norway attacks in 2011,

and the Boston Marathon bombing in 2013.

The author does not provide direct evidence of Brennan’s responsibility for these attacks.

Rather, it links the management of intelligence information to alleged financial gains.

White House records tampered with

The book presents a long series of accounts alleging manipulation of White House visitor records.

This was to conceal meetings between Brennan and an intelligence analyst at the National Counterterrorism Center.

Providing inaccurate financial statements, in addition to allegations of pressure exerted to conceal share ownership.

It also includes accusations against other government officials for their role in the events.

Some of them – according to the writer –

may have been unaware of what was going on or were sacrificed unintentionally.

So far, there is no indication that these allegations have been

subject to formal or judicial investigation.

Brennan has not made any recent comments regarding the content of this novel.

Your claims are being verified.

يُذكر أن مدير وكالة المخابرات المركزية السابق شغل مناصب أمنية رفيعة طوال عقود،

It has been the subject of frequent political controversy, but the accusations

contained in this book remain within the realm of unverified claims.

The author of the book asserts that all his information is derived from publicly available sources.

He notes that references to these sources are available upon request.

Until any official statements or independent reviews of

these claims are issued,
