Declassified DoD report sees problem resolved, makes no recommendations

The following is the declassified two page summary of the Office of Special Plans report, as acquired Friday morning by RAW STORY.

The Pentagon's Inspector General said he found it unnecessary to make any recommendations, saying changed relationships between the Defense Department and the Intelligence Community "significantly reduce the opportunity for the inappropriate conduct of intelligence activities outside of intelligence channels" in the future.

In a statement Thursday, Armed Services Committee chairman Sen. Carl Levin (D-MI) called the report a "devastating condemnation of the activities of the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy." In a separate statement, Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-WV), chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, says whether intelligence activities "were authorized or not, it appears that they were not in compliance with the law."

The last sentence is, "As a result, we are not making any recommendations."
