An Interesting Take on Plame-Wilson and Iran

The blogger asks a very good question about the outing of Plame:

"Flashback: Outed CIA officer was working on Iran, intelligence sources say
The unmasking of covert CIA officer Valerie Plame Wilson by White House officials in 2003 caused significant damage to U.S. national security and its ability to counter nuclear proliferation abroad, RAW STORY has learned.

Bush outed Valerie Plame, apparently in an effort to derail her husband's reporting that forged documents lay behind administration claims of Iraq's pursuit of uranium. In the process, the cover was blown off of Brewster Jennings & Associates, the CIA front group tasked with tracking nuclear ambitions in other nations. In hindsight, was this done deliberately to clear the way for new lies about Iran?
