I’m wondering how it got out in the first place that they were all CIA and what their mission there was.
Several opined he did not do it by mistake at all, that his handlers know full well the damage that's done when you release info like that.
I couldn't find post on a cursory glance, but it's well worth looking up and perusing. Those familiar with the world of spies and things say he gave AQ an excellent recruiting tool as well as huge bragging rights in the world that wishes us ill.
Whether incompetence or treason, the outcome is the same. We are once again placed at greater risk by a man who never should have been in the position to hurt us.
I'm absolutely sure from listening to Petraeus that the CIA was in on the Dec 19th hit.
And I'm inclined to believe that one of the dead CIA members in Afghanistan was a mole...but didn't know he/she was going to get blown up.
The moron in our White House announced it. Any of our previous presidents would have represented the dead as State Department or some other part of the government, at least in public. The terrorists would have gotten a little bit of credit for killing some infidels, and it would have been a small loss. Instead, Obama officially confirmed what the terrorists probably suspected but couldn't have proven to potential recruits - that they got some genuine American spies - and I have no doubt that Al Qaeda recruiters will do much better as a result of Obama having once again acted stupidly.
