CIA beyond reproach for decades? Not a chance. They are directly involved in the coups/insurgencies in Ukraine, Libya, Syria, Honduras and pressuring Ecuador to auction the rainforest for its oil and almost fully breaking the will of Correa. I think the problem here is just how apathetic we are. the Patriot act, NSA leaks, Podesta e-mails, and CIA leaks are absolutely damning, but the apathy is too strong. What is the motivation for a limited hangout? This doesn't help the CIA in any way, it will hurt them, not nearly as much as it should, especially in our eyes, but in their eyes, they will be disgusted. Of course this helps Trump as well, and hurts the establishment narrative, so I don't see the motivation.
Fair points, and I should have made the distinction that it's the MSM and Hollywood that have glamourised and painted a heroic picture of the CIA thus my tad foolish comment of 'beyond reproach'. They are certainly anything but to anyone who has done their research, likely responsible for most of the global turmoil over the last 60 years. I think the motivation of a limited hangout is to move the goal posts or to sever one of the heads to preserve the beast but I admit this is just conjecture.
Yea, I could imagine them doing it to throw one part under the bus thats done for anyway, I'm just not sure about these people...maybe Manning, the lid was blown off Iraq already....I had wondered about Assange, mainly cuz of the proof of life issue, but he seems to have some good shit now, although I will admit I was hoping for something nooseworthy, but he's said its only 1%, might be building it up, its a good atmosphere builder!
