-Caveat Lector- I'm amazed that no one commented on Lars-Erik Nelson's column in th 26 August New York Daily News. I found it very interesting. In part it reads as follows: In the end, Notra Trulock's suspicions grew so vast that everyone was part of the problem: China, the White House, CIA, Department of Energy, National Security Council, our nuclear laboratories and even former Republican Senator Warren Rudman of New Hampshire. Trulock is the Energy Department counterspy who fingered scientist Wen Ho Lee on the basis of virtually no evidence--as a suspected spy for China. He couldn't prove his charges, so he leaked his suspicions to the New York Times, which did a pretty good job of convicting Lee in print. Now the case is goingup in smoke, and so is Trulock. But with the help of the Nw York TImes and some conservative Republicans, he had a pretty good run at making life miserable for a lot of innocent people. ------- On the basis of Trulock's charges and the Times' stories, Republicans demanded the resignation of national security adviser Sandy Berger, the head of Attorney General Janet Reno and the execution of Wen Ho Lee. --------------- None of this tale is true. A senior counterintelligence officer at Los Alamos, Robert Vrooman, says Lee was targeted mostly because of his Chinese ancestry, and the case against him was manufactured out of thin air. . "Investigative journalism has done good work," says a U>S> official who watched as Trulock's accusations smeared innocent people, "But you guys have to learn that not every whistle-blower that talks to you in a garage is a keeper of the truth."
