Maybe our intelligence agencies have misplaced priorities

Iran, Hamas, and other Iran-sponsored terrorist groups have targeted Israel and the U.S. for destruction for years.

But somehow, our intelligence experts never caught wind of all these meetings by Hamas for years where they planned the attack on Israel.

Secret Documents Show Hamas Planned Oct. 7 for Years, Delayed Massacre As They Begged for Allies

The New York Times reported Saturday that they had obtained minutes from secret Hamas meetings that were seized by the Israeli military, and they provide some stunning — and concerning — revelations. The intel comes from the minutes of 10 planning meetings by Hamas leaders where they strategized about the October 7 attack on Israel, which they dubbed “the big project.”

They also don’t seem to spot all the terrorists coming across the border, even though they know that the Biden-Harris administration has been letting unvetted people from around the world come in. They know that many people are coming in from countries that hate us, but we never hear a word about how dangerous that is.

Instead, we are told that Trump and his supporters are the dangerous ones.

A.G. Garland also rarely if ever says much about the gangs and cartels. Instead, he is really focused on parents, pro-life people, Catholics, and other Trump-supporters. I wonder why the majority of the country thinks it is going in the wrong direction.

Intelligence professionals who couldn’t spot the plans to attack Israel somehow were willing to lie that the Biden laptop looked like Russian disinformation without even looking at it. The intelligence agencies and Justice Department also never cared that Joe Biden was flying Hunter around the world, collecting millions from our enemies.

But most of the media pretend that the Biden-Harris foreign and domestic policies are great and Trump is dangerous.

The intel agencies must know that there are terrorist cells that have come over our southern border. Why do they and the democRATs not care?

We are being attacked from all sides, but it’s the attack from within that I fear the most.

Before Intel agencies America was safer and more respected. We copied the British model and they have been a dismal failure. Within 20 years there assassinated JFK and countless others around the world. They have overthrown governments for the bankers and have now targeted normal Americans.
They should be disbanded and legitimate tactical and strategic intelligence returned to the military.
They work hard against the republic and our liberty.

Team obama turned every agency’s loyalty away from the USA and toward the dimrat/deep state party.

Yes they did, they purposely ignored them.

Hey Jack:

Welcome to the party, pal.

But the correct headline should read,

“Our intelligence agencies have secret agendas operating as a tyranny within the government, are despotic and untouchable”

For anyone that believes this nonsense, I have a real nice Bridge for sale in Long Beach. My money says certain factions of our intelligence agencies Coordinated and Ran those meetings.

I wonder if they prevented Benjamin Netanyahu from knowing the information like they kept information from Trump?

They are out to get Americans. This is the America for foreign freeloaders now. Criminals.

You can bet on it. In the bigger picture consequential conflict is good for business. And no effort or resources spent.

Once they make it on US soil, the CIA defers to the FBI. Even if they ID a terrorist at the border once they hit US soil, they become a DHS problem.

I suspect our intel agencies are broken. The DNI is at fault, but it is also structural. CIA should under no circumstance be allowed to operate on US soil. The rest of the actors from the NSC should return to being separate agencies with separate budgets, responsibility and directors. The DNI should only be the link between the agencies to ensure information is shared when needed.

If elected Trump needs to restructure how security clearances are managed. Presidential appointees should have their security clearances revoked or reduced in level once they leave the job. Any one working in an Intel community as a presidential appointee should not be allowed work for Intel contractors for five years after leaving office. That and revoking or reducing clearances would go a long way in cleaning up that community. You would not have a revolving door between agencies and contractors like you have now.
