Yes - I can see me doing that :)
Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) — Two of the seven CIA officers killed Wednesday in a suspected terrorist attack on a U.S. base in Afghanistan were contractors for Xe, a private security firm, a former intelligence official said Thursday.
The Taliban have claimed responsibility for the attack. A senior U.S. official said information suggested that a bomber walked into a gym facility at Forward Operating Base Chapman — in Khost Province, near the border of Pakistan — and detonated bombs in a suicide vest.
Another six CIA employees were wounded, another official said. It is not known how the bomber got past security.
A U.S. intelligence official on Thursday vowed to avenge the attack.
“This attack will be avenged through successful, aggressive counterterrorism operations,” the intelligence official vowed.
Former CIA official Robert Richer called it “the greatest loss of life for the Central Intelligence Agency since the Beirut Embassy bombing” in 1983, which killed eight agents.
