Oh, good thing they’re “black “ operations.

That way no one will ever know about it.

WHY IS THIS IN THE FRACKING NEWS? Find who leaked this or spread it falsely, and HANG THEM.

Looks like the CIA has launched its operations: disclosing its orders to the press. I suppose it’s possible that the leak was authorized, but I strongly doubt it. If the leak is unauthorized, then the fact that it occurred gives more reason to doubt whether the CIA is up to the task assigned by the president.

Maybe a story like this will get the captured Agents of S.O.R.O.S. in Iran executed. Not saying that would be a good thing, but it is a possible consquence.

Same as when the Human Shields’ loyalty to Saddam was questioned.

“Under the plan, pressure will be brought to bear on the Iranian economy by manipulating the country’s currency and international financial transactions.”

Already done and common knowledge for months. See below:

“More than 40 major international banks and financial institutions have either cut off or cut back business with the Iranian government or private sector as a result of a quiet campaign launched by the Treasury and State departments last September, according to Treasury and State officials.”

The Russians said they were pulling engineers and technicians out of Busheir, the Persian Gulf site where since 1995 they have been building a nuclear power plant for Iran. They cited as pretext Iran’s failure to make timely payments on the $800 million contract.”

propaganda and disinformation aren’t “black ops.” We should be doing “wet ops” and blowing up things.

Even if this is true it is about twenty years too late. A shame too, as the Iranians are some of the most pro-Western, America-loving people on the planet.
