A former high-ranking US military officer is being probed for allegedly leaking details about a US cyberattack on Iran, a US media report said.

Citing unnamed legal sources, NBC News said retired Marine Gen. James Cartwright has been told he is under investigation for allegedly disclosing details about the Stuxnet attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Cartwright, 63, is the former vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The four-star general retired from the military in August 2011.

Stuxnet, tailored specifically to target Iran’s uranium enrichment operation, struck Iran in 2010 and reportedly dealt a serious blow to its disputed nuclear program.

1. Proseceute everyone and jail everyone.

That way Obama will go down in history as one of the most authoritarian and paranoid Presidents ever. That his administration invoked the espionage act twice as much as all Presidents before him combined shows how out of control this government is. And no, I don't blame President Obama in person. He is just a symptom of a broken system. And all this will just get worse and worse.
