“This is the way an intel-analyst (intelligence analyst) talks. They ... take data over a period of time and project what will occur. There is no threat here,” she said. “It’s just a prediction of the future.”

Yep. That's just how *I* always imagined intel-analysts would talk, how about you?
These people can see threats in the most innocuous action or sentence, and wave them around as proof of tyranny. But when it comes to their own words and actions, they will deliberately hair-split them into meaninglessness.
I hear bells ringing somewhere in the neighborhood of my memory; something about this behavior is familiar ...
They probably use that line when picking up guys at bars.
