Thanks for the reply. I'm new to spy stuff and I'm perhaps to open to kooky theories. I guess my thinking is that the CIA has generations of international manipulation under it's belt and the NSA has become a rising star in the internet era. It seems to me that the NSA would start stumbling into some pretty shady CIA business, stuff that the CIA would rather keep to itself.

Intelligence agencies might be "shady" but they still tend to work for the interests of the country. Regardless on what ego trip you think they are on they aren't going to jeopardise US national security to settle a score with an organization which is 10-20 times their size just because the cold war is over. It's like saying that the CIA doesn't like the fact that most VISINT is now run by the NRO so they'll blow up satellite launches this is pretty absurd. The funny part is that the CIA has a cyber program also, and it's pretty advanced by all accounts the kinetic payload for Stuxnet and a few other cyber attacks in which the US took part off or lead on it's own came from the CIA not the NSA.
