US: Republicans seek ‘damage assessment’ over senator's drone info slip - Naveed Yaseen - 02-27-2009 11:58 AM

US senator under fire over drone facility in Pakistan remarks

LAHORE: Republican members of the House Intelligence Committee have asked the Obama administration to conduct an inquiry into comments by Senator Dianne Feinstein that appeared to confirm the existence of a secret US facility inside Pakistan used to carry out drone attacks in the Tribal Areas. Amid growing concern inside Pakistan over the strikes, Newsweek reported that the unusual request by the Republicans sought a ‘damage assessment’ into the remarks by Feinstein, the new chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. The request was made in a secret letter to Dennis Blair, Obama’s new director of national intelligence, sent recently by Republican Pete Hoekstra and other Republicans on the House intel panel, according to several congressional sources quoted by Newsweek. daily times monitor
