C.I.A.: Finally There's a Cost to Misdeeds

Could it get any more silly implementing American foreign policy? Today the U.S. recalled its C.I.A. station chief from "ally"Pakistan. A local prosecutor in Pakistan named him -name witheld in our media but is on front page in Pakistan! Wait it gets more stupid. Also named is C.I.A. boss Leon Panetta and Sectretary of Defense Robert Gates as defendants in a lawsuit. The prosecutor wants to recover damages and mete out possible criminal penalties for killing innocents in Pakistan. The method was the drone aircraft. Pakistan gets billions from us so we can do canned hunts in their lands. All good things must come to and end. Now the hunters are being hunted by terrorists who want to kill the C.I.A. station chief after his name was published . His cover is blown , that's why he's  being recalled.

The C.I.A. spends about $ 80 billion a year fomenting trouble around the world. They are kind of like an advance group for our military-industrial complex. You know. They drum up or bomb up business. The C.I.A. create more problems than they prevent. So it's somewht gratifying that these cowards are getting some real heat. Maybe Leon Panetta should resign and open a pizza shop with Gates as a delivery boy?
