Are you sure you mean the State Department? The State Department handles diplomacy, not usually spying or defense. (Though I'm sure there are CIA spies working under diplomatic cover)
The staffers I've known at State were academic types or bureaucrats. If I were to criticize them, I would say they were excessively cynical, not naive.
- steve19 9y agoWorking for State is a euphemism. It's who certain people claim to be working for when they actually work in intelligence or covert operations. For example overseas embassy CIA staff. In my experience it's quite common and usually said in a way to indicate they don't actually work for State but can't/won't say who they actually work for.
- ataturk 9y agoThe embassy in Benghazi was mostly there to operate a gun/weapons running operation involving Khaddafy's (Quadaffi's hell if I know) former arsenal through Egypt and into Syria and elsewhere. The people that did all this have massive, massive blood on their hands. Do I even need to say the Clintons and their "Foundation" are neck deep in the blood?
