(Thx to JH)<br /><br />The CIA has brought torture to this land as a permanent policy it seems. Every president now has this unAmerican new power. Bush initiated the torture program, Obama continues the torture program, now it's BiPartisan, woowee.<br /><br />How long before this brave new federal power to torture civilians -- in advance of a trial -- passes down to the states?<br /><br />CIA has corrupted damn well everything if it does.<br /><br />Do CIA hate American civilians?? Do they hate us for our freedoms?Empire and Rebellionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06395672126760848375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12796551.post-83902421812939401782010-11-03T19:32:17.885-04:002010-11-03T19:32:17.885-04:00Just amazing.

A recent and tragic example of our dysfunctional intelligence service resulted in a group of CIA agents being killed at a forward operating base in Afghanistan by a suicide bomber. The CIA had been warned by the Jordanian intelligence service that a Jordanian doctor recruited by the CIA was a suspected double agent. The CIA ignored their suspicions and in their haste to debrief the source, ignored normal operational security procedures, and paid with their lives.Andy Steenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08011416400060361590noreply@blogger.com
