Before the Iraq War, she worked in Near East South Asia directorate at the Department of Defense and who , of whom she is critical. "observed firsthand the formation of the Pentagon's Office of Special Plans," wrote that she "had a clear sense that Abram Shulsky ranked high in the organization, although ostensibly he was under William Luti. ... Shulsky's real boss was somebody like Douglas Feith or higher" [1]
