Articles listed in this category relate to the leaking of the name of covert CIA operative Valerie Plame, the persons and events associated with the leak, including the ongoing cover-up, as well as what is believed to be the precipitating event for the leak, which was retaliation by the Bush administration against Plame's husband, former Ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV, who had revealed that the Bush administration had lied about Saddam Hussein's alleged weapons of mass destruction and, therefore, its reason for preemptive war and invasion of Iraq.
