Three members of the first CIA teams sent to Afghanistan to hunt down Osama bin Laden and topple the Taliban after 9/11 have been told they face disciplinary action for refusing to be vaccinated against COVID-19, DailyMail.com has learned.
Because of the clandestine role they cannot speak publicly but are understood to be furious that their careers are on the line because of the Biden's administration's vaccine mandates.
It is part of wider unease about the mandate among paramilitary officers who are often encouraged to break rules to accomplish their missions, according to Toby Harnden.
His new book, 'First Casualty: The Untold Story of the CIA Mission to Avenge 9/11' details the story of the first teams sent to Afghanistan after the Al Qaeda attacks.
'I've heard a number of CIA officers express concern about the vaccine mandates,' he said in response to an enquiry by DailyMail.com.
'Some of these officers find it outrageous that some of those who put their lives on the line are now having to witness a catastrophic failure in Afghanistan and at the same time the prospect of their careers being ended because they believe they should have the option not to take a COVID vaccine.'
In the intelligence community, contractors - who will simply lose work if they fail to comply - have been the most vocal in online forums, while the vast majority of CIA staffers are already vaccinated.
A former CIA intelligence officer said: 'I have heard anecdotally that some contractors and paramilitaries are resisting taking the vaccine.
In July, CIA director William Burns told NPR: 'Navigating through the COVID pandemic — and we're still navigating through it, although, at CIA, we have fully vaccinated more than 95% of our officers, both at headquarters and overseas.'

I understand that the vaccine overall saves millions of lives.
Is that clear now?
semantically I object to the “therepy” part of the label “gene therepy” because that implies that it is a therapeutic medical treatment.
After hundreds of millions of doses, I think we’re past the “experimental” phase.

You might read the history of thalidomide. It took many years to make the connection between that drug and catastrophic birth defects.
A lot of people who took these shots are frustrated and at least subconsciously regretting their decision and cannot stand that other people didn’t make the same decision they did
Agreed, the obese, heavy drinkers, and sedentary.....and smokers and high blood pressure.....
all of that contributes to Covid deaths.....after you catch the bug....
How about avoiding the bug to begin with? So we can go back to killing ourselves with bad lifestyles.....
“I understand that the vaccine overall saves millions of lives.”
I suppose you have peer reviewed studies and evidence from the CDC and The Who to back this up, or perhaps this just your understanding.
Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of Beast for it is a Human Number
“thalidomide”
Yup, familiar with it and the damage it caused.
Again, it was not used by the hundreds of millions of doses of Covid vaccine safely administered.
Sure, there could be long term side effects, ya gotta takes your chances to a degree. But the short term side effects of DEATH by drownding, every night in the news is far more compelling.
It’s all about the body count.
No, because that’s not happening to vaccinated or non-vaccinated people.
A small percentage of unfit people are having the issues. Younger people handle it like a cold or don’t know they’ve had it.
“How about we all catch it and let nature take its course?”
There is some logic to that. Outlaw all masks. Natural immunity is more effective.
Those that refuse the vaccine and want to walk with God...well get to steppin’. We would reach herd immunity much faster.
And we could use the empty nursing homes for the homeless.........
Yes, unfit people are far more at risk ONCE they have the bug.
My point is, get vaccinated and largely avoid the bug all together, fit or unfit.
The effects on an infant from a mother getting the shot while pregnant.

Again, there are going to be tragic side effects to the few.
Why not trot out the millions of healthy vaccinated stories........not as sensational?
Meh, screw the homeless
As to walking with god—I’ve been exposed multiple times, suck with symptoms twice but no antibodies
Most of my family the same—sniffles for a day or so and on with life
None of us vaccinated—but about half us is also have the -ccr5
Not interested in the vaccine but won’t try and stop anyone I don’t care about
To the point, after some of your comments I don’t know why you would care if other people took the vaccine other than you being concerned about your ownself
You do you. Look at Sweden vs Israel.
If the shot works so well and protects the “vaccinated”, why do the “vaccinated” need protection from the “unvaccinated”?
Read a little more of the CDC data and realize that this is NOT a vaccine. Then take a closer look at the Nuremburg Code and understand that the number of shots administered is NOT the way a long term test works.
I’ll keep my trust in my immune system. After the flu shot 3 years ago messed me up badly, I am more than a bit gunshy when it comes to this stuff.
“why do the “vaccinated” need protection from the “unvaccinated”?”
Breakthrough infections, while rare, do happen because our anti-viral loads drops naturally. We need boosters, like a lot of vaccines.
I don’t agree with the mask mania for the vaccinated, not worth the trouble.
a number of areas of concern are by definition likely long-term side effects, if they happen. for people otherwise in good health and not aged, the vaccines (granting these unknowns) are dubious risk/rewards medically. for children, they are insane.
The paramilitaries are the Special Activity/Ground Branch guys doing real work.
As for your examples, let’s see…..
Paramiltary Guy Joe is exposed to covid. He has a 99.7% chance of getting over it. Will probably do so without any medical intervention. A din some cases won’t even know he has it. If he does need medical intervention there are options available to him. Just ask India how they handled it.
However, if Paramiltary Guy George gets exposed to Hepatitis B or C or Anthrax, he will DIE if he doesn’t receive medical treatment.
So, your ridiculous argument is moronic.
I saw a meme the other day…..you have a 99.7% chance of beating Cancer without any medical help but you decide to go through chemo anyway.
Questions for you, even thought Lord Fauci said the masks were useless, do you still wear one? If you got the so-called “vaccine” they told you it would protect you, why are you worried? I could go on.
They e gone oat that.
They e change the definition of vaccine twice since last year, after having one for decades.
