...then there are the cases of the two Arabic interpreters. Air Force Senior Airman Ahmad al-Halabi faces multiple charges that include spying for Syria and aiding the enemy. Contract interpreter Ahmed Fathy Mehalba is accused of unauthorized possession of classified information. The military and FBI fear that these or other linguists may have "submarined" interrogations of suspects--that is, selectively omitted important leads and facts, inserted disinformation to throw off questioners and told al-Qaeda ringmasters abroad what the detainees had said.
