Ok, so there is this uber secret CIA project
They were reporting on NBC Nightly News that it basically was an assassination group.

I'm not buying, that kind of stuff is bread and butter for the company, no need to keep it from the Director. Plus, that was already known to have been authorized by * shortly after 9/11.

The question is what are they up to?

Homeland false flag op?

Suitcase nukes?

8. That;s their job..
it was called the OSS and they did the same thing. Barring red lines they are free to kill people who present a threat to the US at will. Like people who fund OBL and alQ. Those people are targets and should pretty much expect a response.

Transparency does not work in that line of business.

2. From the memory hole:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/A63203-2001Oct27?language=printer

How can something publicly known for over 8 years be "secret"?

5. So let's try this on
Edited on Mon Jul-13-09 07:51 PM by MadMaddie
What if the assasination squad was created to take out Americans? Liberal Americans, Union Leaders and anyone else that was deemed a threat to their Republican junta.

That would be shocking would it not? That would spur action wouldn't it?

Insiders at the CIA went to the CIA director because they knew it was highly illegal......

9. Cia got all wiggy about killing individuals after church,
maybe someone gave them their balls back. Depends on who and where killing was done. People who fund, run logistics, or participate in terrorism involving the us should pretty much expect that after 9/11

Killing americans on american soil is a very different matter.
