 Ethics, Espionage, and Covert Action   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The sources and methods of espionage, the goals and tactics of covert action, and the professional conduct of intelligence officers are matters typically hidden from public scrutiny, yet clearly worthy of public debate and philosophical attention.
Recognition of the sometimes grave consequences of espionage and covert action at least ought to have a sobering effect on the consideration of the ends they are intended to serve.
The risks inherent in all espionage activities suggest, though, that for the sake of the agent alone, efforts should be made to determine before the agent is recruited that the information needed cannot in fact be ascertained by less problematic methods.

Former FBI agent Robert Hanssen became the most damaging spy in bureau history not because of his espionage abilities but because of a 20-year lapse in the FBI's ability to deter or detect spies in the agency and a lack of supervision by its officials, a report said yesterday.
"There was essentially no deterrence to espionage at the FBI during the 1979 to 2001 time period," said a summary report of a classified 674-page audit by the Justice Department's Office of Inspector General of FBI efforts to uncover Hanssen's spying activities.
Sentenced to life in prison, he admitted to 15 counts of espionage and conspiracy dating to more than 20 years for which he collected $1.4 million in cash and diamonds.

 Aldrich Ames, CIA
If the recruit does not have access to needed material, his secret employer takes on the task of managing his career by providing him with "successes" in the form of cases and information, so he rises to where he is useful.
As the CIA's Soviet bloc division noted in 1973 about its own capabilities at career-managing a potential mole recruited at a foreign embassy: "we are prepared to guide and assist him in his career, running him in place until he develops the access we need".
The ex-CIA officer recalled that in similar mole operations into the intelligence services of West Germany, England and France, the KGB had acted to widen the original penetration by having the initial recruit spot, assess and find vulnerabilies of others in the service for its head-hunters.

 Alexandre Kojeve: Moscow's Mandarin Marxist Mole in France
To understand Kojev-nikov, who changed his nationality from Russian to French and his name from Alexander Kojevnikov to Alexandre Kojève, one must imagine an agent of influence for the Russian Intelligence Service - the K.G.B. - working at the centre of Europe and France's economic and international economic policy.
Prior to the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 the identification of Kojève as an agent of influence would have invited ridicule and disbelief.
For this reason, exposure of Kojève's espionage career did not occur until the collapse of the Soviet Union and the nightmare of all Soviet spies - the archival revelations of a key defector.

 Franklin Affair Blows Neo-Con Moles at DOD
Lyndon LaRouche has emphasized that the pivotal issue is not one of "friendly espionage." The neo-con apparatus in Washington, and their Israeli allies, typified by Ariel Sharon and the even more rabid right-wing circles in Israel, pose a menace to the survival of both the United States and Israel.
Now, Israeli officials maintain personal ties to U.S. government officials and Israeli lobbyists, and garner vast amounts of vital data through verbal briefings, often conducted over Washington "power lunches." However, the source emphasized, on some occasions, it is vital for the Israelis to obtain physical hard copy, to maximize their ability to tilt U.S. policy.
In 1988, EIR published a sequel Special Report, "The Kalmanowitch Report: Moscow's Moles in the Reagan-Bush Administration." The report traced the Israelis' arrest of accused Soviet spy Shabtai Kalmanowitch to the very Marc Rich circles of international organized crime and "asteroid" intelligence operatives that were implicated in the Pollard affair.

 ISN Security Watch - US, Israeli mole case not what it seems
Although the US has never had an official secrets act, there are growing fears there that an aggressive new interpretation of US anti-spying laws is designed to criminalize not just those who leak government secrets, but those who receive leaked information as well.
In a motion to dismiss the charges, the defense team argues that the Espionage Act, passed in 1917 and then amended in 1950, was never intended to be used against leakers - especially those who do not even work for the government.
“Stating this,” the brief goes on, “we recognize that a prosecution under the espionage laws of an actual member of the press for publishing classified information leaked to it by a government source, would raise legitimate and serious issues and would not be undertaken lightly.

 Ethics in the Workplace - WISE Member Charter Committees
However, while the Enrons and Andersens of this world, will hang forever in the halls of infamy, many a similar tale goes untold, unethical behavior (or out-ethics as we term it) pervades at all levels from the Corporate CEO to the janitor.
And while a survey of CEOs by the American Society for Industrial Security pinned the figure for corporate espionage at the much higher figure of $6.6 billion per month, no figure exists for the countless newly hired employees whose first day on the job is spent downloading the secrets of prior employers.
In other areas, corporations are found to be misleading investors, millions are siphoned out from companies into private hands, and while the Securities and Exchange Commission may bring corporate giants to “justice”, more than a few cynics have noted how white-collar justice rarely leads to a cell.

Top officials at the Research and Analysis Wing allowed a suspected Central Intelligence Agency mole in their ranks to remove upwards of 120 files from his office just weeks before he fled the country — apparently oblivious of the fact that mole-watchers in the same organisation were attempting to nail the officer for espionage.
Rabinder Singh, a senior RAW officer who is believed to have defected to the United States in May, may have used the opportunity to move classified information out of the organisation's headquarters in New Delhi.
SES personnel from the Intelligence Bureau were tasked with nailing suspects in at least two espionage scandals in the past, one involving a RAW official headquartered in Chennai, and another revolving around a top Intelligence Bureau functionary.
