they may not all have the same membership card, but... they all share the same goal to inflict as much damage to the Christian west as possible. it not rocket science...
Well, I feel safer already.
Good article. Carle is an example of why the CIA has been giving Presidents bad or incomplete information for a long time.
Sounds like someone is writing letters to the editor in preparation for a book release...

Really?
I guess the news rports of the Islamoturds taking over Germany England, the Netherlands and much of the EU are false reports.
They are changing the face of all those country’s by coruptting their laws their systems draining their welfare systems tying up the police and the courts.
No doesn;t sound like a global jihad at all.......
Of course we face a global jihadist movement. It’s called Islam. It’s what all the “little regional” jihad movements have in common
True enough. It just happens that they operate globally and happen to like killing people, chief among them Americans.
Most of what we call "Al Qaeda" is just that, disparate movements that get help from various national intel organizations among whom Saddam's once figured, and the Soviets before him, and Tehran and Damascus now.
But just as it was impossible to do a complete take-down of Bin Ladin's group without going after Saddam, without putting pressure on Karachi, without pressuring Riyadh, its also going to be impossible to finish the job without separating Iran's mullahs from the institutions of national power there. And pushing Bashir out an upstairs palace window in Damascus.
I read somewhere or maybe someone commented here that the CIA is the most leftist organization in the government.
True! And ICBMS do not constitute a global threat, because each one can only be in one continent at a time.
What nonsense.
He wanted to say “Bushes Fault” so badly...
Why should anyone trust the CIA run by the Clintonistas?
The CIA has been a notorious repository of leftist thinking for many years. Reagan felt he had to circumvent it for analysis. He could not have gone head to head with the USSR on CIA analysis and advice. It is the CIA that claimed from its beginning that the USSR was growing economically at twice the rate of thy USA and during each of 40 years that not only was that true but that the USSR’s economy was already about 50% of the USA’s. The CIA recruits out of Ivy League schools. It gets lots of IQ but it also gets an Ivy League outlook that is not further educable.
I sure wish he would have written a “book” a couple weeks prior to 09-11-01 warning us of the upcoming attack on the WTC.
Is this the same CIA that had no clue about 911 until after it was over? The same CIA that hired Valarie? The same CIA that said there were WMD’s in Iraq? The same CIA that ran the bay of Pigs? The same CIA that...
“almost all of which long predate the existence of al-Qaeda
This is news? Of course they predate al-Qaeda. al-Qaeda means “the base” and it’s stated mission was to be the central clearing house and command center for all of those organizations, not to be a stand-alone organization. That’s what makes them more dangerous.
This guy influenced CIA policy? Ouch.
Why are there so many liberals in the CIA?
Disparate or not, these groups are still a threat ALL OVER THE GLOBE, so even though they may not be connected globally, they ARE a global threat. It is harder to ferret them out, but it has to be done, in order to find out which ones will be a direct threat to US.
