        @emptywheel @ggreenwald That sounds like an incident Jane Mayer reported about in The Dark Side, where agent responsible was promoted after.

        @HumesGhost I corrected -- there were 2 Gul Rahmans. She talks abt Khalid al-Masri, also in report, as are other "mistakes" @ggreenwald

        @emptywheel @ggreenwald This was the passage I was thinking of from Mayer. http://dailydoubt.blogspot.com/2008/12/promoting-murder.html … In the book she did not know the identity.
