  • Joseph Charles Wilson, IV (born November 6, 1949) is the CEO of his own firm JC Wilson International Ventures, "a consulting firm specializing in strategic management and international-business development." In January 2007, Wilson joined Jarch Capital, LLC, as vice chairman, to advise the firm's expansion in areas of Africa considered "politically sensitive." A United States Foreign Service diplomat before retiring in 1998, Wilson was posted to African nations and Iraq during the George H. W. Bush administration and later served as Special Assistant to U.S. President Bill Clinton and as Senior Director for African Affairs on the United States National Security Council. Wilson became known to the general public as a result of his op-ed "What I Didn't Find in Africa", published in the New York Times four months after the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Wilson's op-ed documented his 2002 Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) investigation into whether Iraq had purchased or attempted to purchase uranium yellowcake from Niger. He concluded that the George W. Bush administration twisted intelligence to "exaggerate the Iraqi threat." The week after the article's publication, Robert Novak disclosed Wilson's wife's maiden name, "Valerie Plame," which was ultimately determined to be her classified covert CIA identity, in his syndicated Washington Post column. Subsequently, former Ambassador Wilson and others alleged that the disclosure was part of the Bush administration's attempts to discredit his report on his trip to Africa and the op-ed describing his findings because they did not support the government's rationale for the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Wilson's allegations led to a federal investigation of the leak by the United States Department of Justice, to the appointment of a Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald, to the CIA leak grand jury investigation, and to a major American political scandal variously dubbed by the press "Plamegate", the "Plame affair", the "CIA leak scandal", and other terms relating to the public disclosure or "leak" of Mrs. Wilson's then-classified covert CIA identity as "Valerie Plame". Although no one was "indicted for actually leaking Plame's identity," the investigation resulted in a federal criminal trial United States v. Libby in which Lewis Libby, the former Chief of Staff to Vice President of the United States, Dick Cheney, was tried on five federal felony counts. He was convicted on four of the counts, involving false statements, perjury, and obstruction of justice, none of which related directly to the Plame relevation but rather to his failure to cooperate with the subsequent investigation into the revelation. Libby was sentenced to 30 months in prison and a fine of $250,000. The prison time was commuted by President Bush. The Wilsons have appealed the dismissal, on jurisdictional grounds, of Wilson v. Cheney, their ongoing civil suit brought against Cheney, Libby, Karl Rove, Richard Armitage, and other unnamed parties. This case has just been dismissed by a federal appeals court. It is not clear if further appeals will be filed. (en)

  • Joseph Charles Wilson IV (ur. 6 listopada 1949) - pracownik dyplomacji amerykańskiej w latach 1976 - 1998. Szerzej znany stał się w kontekście tzw. sprawy Plame. Wilson opublikował 6 lipca 2003 artykuł w "New York Timesie", w którym opisał swój wyjazd do Niamey, stolicy Nigru, z ramienia amerykańskiej CIA, oskarżając jednocześnie administrację prezydenta Busha, iż zignorowała jego doniesienia dementujące informacje o rzekomym zakupie przez Irak uranu do produkcji broni jądrowej. Krytyka ta spotkała się z gwałtowną reakcją administracji. Rzekomym przejawem tego było ujawnienie kilku dziennikarzom tożsamości żony Josepha Wilsona, Valerie Plame, agentki CIA, w celu podważenia wiarygodności osoby samego Wilsona. (pl)
