Oy Vey. Here is my feeling: Berger should not get any position in any Kerry administration. He was an awful national security advisor, reflecting all that was lawyerly and slow to acquire a real national security vision for the president he was advising. This case makes one just scratch one's head. But it certainly doesn't seem to reflect any malice, e.g. using information from classified documents to destroy someone's career, as apparently officials from the Bush administration have done. Nor does it rise to even one one millionth of the level of leaking to Ahmad Chalabi that the US had broken Iranian intelligence's communications codes, I might add.
