"...we’ve decided to live in this world of limited oversight."
Read it and weep... I can just imagine any of the main players of this sordid state of affairs saying: "You want the truth? You can't handle the truth!"
I have to say though you have to admire how incredible a cleaner Haspel is. Spotless really.
- saiya-jin 5y agoYeah next time folks here will defend CIA as bunch of highly moral patriots, well they are either clueless or outright lying, which goes well along what CIA is anyway supposed to do. US has no moral high ground. US folks here might feel like they still do, but to 95% of the world, US can easily end up bigger bully than any other state, ie Russia or China. And by bully I mean murders, kindappings, torture, rape and so on. Or just death of few hundreds of thousands of civilians. For reasons that are at best dubious. How many of those in the article were coming from Afghanistan theatre, a war that US and allies lost recently and ran away quicker than locals could say 'but wait...' ? Man, am I pissed off. US should be trying to win, or at least keep good friends in near future. This is not how one should do it.

- Clubber 5y ago>ran away quicker than Uh, we've been there 20 years. If we had run away quicker, it would have saved a lot of lives and money.
- the-dude 5y agoI am sure he means the pace of the retreat.
- chasd00 5y agoi wouldn't get too worked up, the article cites only one instance from Abu Hamza al-Tabuki while claiming to document 14. The article has a lot of words but little actual information, I would ask for more specific details before letting the author really get under your skin.
