7 CIA agents killed by double agent

[Irving]

So what the heck is going on with this? Apparently a Jordanian double agent working for CIA and Al Queda was invited into a CIA head quarters for interrogation. He set off a bomb and killed himself and 7 CIA agents. I've even heard the reporters now calling this guy a triple agent.

I've been hearing about this all day. Sad day for us. Here is an article, I haven't read the article because I've been hearing about on NPR all day today.

just shows you can't trust anyone. this sounds like some james bond shit.

you can't trust guys in the military, you can't trust CIA agents and you most certainly can't trust our politicians, especially our CIC.

sad fucking day it is.

When you say you can't trust guys in the CIA, you mean like, if you were some other kind of agent like KGB or something?

Happened day before New Year
What's worse an Army officer they knew had problems?
Or a person that should have been watched at all times?
The Agency has had a lot of double agents.

Like I've said else where
Prayers and thought sent out for all our brave who have fallen.

there are ways to stop this.

I can not share them because it might hurt people's feelings.

hurt feeling < lost lifes

I would imagine it would be hard to trust any CIA agent...considering you never really know what their job entails, who they might be working for, if they are out to get information on you etc etc.

ok here goes.

(this works for all suicide bombers, not just the guy in this case)

ID the bomber's family.

then send the CSPD after them, and bury them in tickets.







ba dum bum, pish!
sorry I couldn't resist.







ok here's the real deal.


ID the bomber.
Then, identify and locate his family.
Then, send teams of morally unencumbered operatives to eliminate them. Every man, woman and child. Pets too if there's time.

Teach the radical fundamental islamic types that if they choose to martyr themselves to gain their eternal reward, they'll have plenty of company as they'll be talking all of their loved ones with them.

Pretty harsh no? well, I'm the guy who thinks we should nuke mecca if 9/11 part 2 happens.


too many violent video games as a kid, I guess.

all the "we can't stoop to their level" types may commence crying... now.

I am unsure about the family retaliation unless there is evidence they knew what he was going to do. Sometimes families haven't a clue what a member of that family is doing or going to do and I would have a hard time holding them personally responsible when it wasn't their fault or action.

as far as nuke mecca, I am with you. I would love to see all of the middle east turned into a glass exportation company after all the sand turns to glass and we should get about .10 a gallon gasoline...6 cents of that being tax.
I am sure my logic is completely contradictory as far as each feeling but I don't really care

It's tragic but it's been a hard lesson of all the agencies running sources against muslim terrorist org's. We (AFOSI) lost three agents in Iraq to bad source handling a couple years back. I knew one of them, not well, but I knew him.

Arab's in peticular think very long term. They have a saying; the son of my son will avenge me. I can only speculate, but this feels to me as a long term type plot they would work against a counterintelligence agency.
