CIA threatens "Press for Truth" producers over release of new documentary

Sabrina said:
I could quote you chapter and verse about a lot of things, SHC, but given that I'd be running the risk of violating my security clearance, I'm sure you'll understand if I refrain from doing so. Suffice to say, your interpretation of how things were then is sadly lacking and quite frankly insulting.

I liked that bit at the end of the first Bourne movie where Abbott lies his pants off to the oversight committee or whatever. It shows that, yes, these guys can be held accountable for their actions, and the watchmen watching the watchmen are just as fallible. Any significant inquiry into Treadstone would have blown the lid off Abbott's lies in a New York Minute.

The human element, number one cause of airplane disasters, security breaches and lapses in safety. The human element. Yet another thing you have zero knowledge in.

He's human? I thought he was a SADOT; Sophisticated Algorithm Designed Only for Trolling. You're doing a great job, by the way. Kudos to your programmers.

That was a good movie. Are there any others I should watch so I can learn more about how the CIA actually works? I would like to be an expert and an authority.

Oh, I see. You mocked and ridiculed "truthers" on an internet message board.

It's not like they exist in real life, so knocking them down on interbet forums is the only venue available.

SHC missed the obvious implication: Low level employees know the basics how things work.

So a CIA secretary knows how covert operations work, where operations are taking place anywhere on the globe, what the overall goal of the operations are, where the money for the operations is coming from, and who are the operatives involved?

Hang on a second...

Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!

There's total B.S., and then there's Government Truth B.S., for when you really need to tell a whopper of a fib.

For some odd reason I seem to remember I was talking about basics, you on the other hand seem to be talking about specific details... You wouldn't be trying to build a strawman there, would you?
Apart from low level employee != secretary and all that.
 
For the record, I'm a consultant; I work for Deloitte. I happen to hold a security clearance from my military service that Deloitte is able to use at various government agencies, so I am a government consultant. I do not work directly for the government except in my capacity as a US Army Captain. In that capacity, I am a 35D (All-Source Intelligence Officer) and am experienced in working with various types of intel to benefit the overall mission of my unit.

Just to set the record straight. :rolleyes:

In your professional opinion what is the likelihood of a perfect coverup like the ones suggested by conspiracy nuts?

If a CIA secretary is to be considered ignorant in your opinion, then why should anyone listen to you, when you're not even at the level of a CIA secretary?

Interesting.........I thought you might be a 35E..........

That's what the Army gets for using suggestive MOS codes, I guess. Let's see you turn the Navy designator of 1115 (Surface Warfare) into a double entendre'.

LOL

I didn't mean it like that......



At any rate the fact remains that the stuff we have been saying is from personal experience and not wishful thinking.

I wish certain people would listen and stop this nonsense.

Where? The OP is fictional nonsense - you are saying Richard Clarke was the one threating the nuts at "Press for Truth" and responsible for all the nonsense related to the OP? This is worse than the CIT support.

Now I feel bad for reading double meaning into your comment. To quick on the draw for the joke. :D

Agreed on the "Listen". It is true that not everyone on the internet, by far, is whom they claim to be. On the other hand, you shouldn't automatically assume that someone you don't know is lying about their credentials, on the basis that you don't like what they say or that it challenges your tightly held beliefs, and that is where some posting on here have failed.

Well.......currently I can't even reveal what my credentials are.......maybe in a few years I will be able to.

But I believe Sabrina based off of what she has written.....and since I often work in similar circles.

Actually there are several people here that I believe based off of what they have written......you included.

Great. A Deloitte "consultant".

So how does that make you some kind of expert on CIA covert operations?

Brilliant. The old, "I'm right because I have credentials, but can't prove it" argument. How wonderful.

Some of you guys probably push brooms and change wastepaper basket liners inside government facilities and believe that gives you some kind of special insight into how the government functions.

It doesn't.
