This is a banner day for terrorists world-wide. By "ending" the war, it suggests we need not be as vigilant. Programs designed for national defence can become unfunded, unsupported, and unneeded. How long before a repeat of 9/11?
On 9/11 war was declared against civillians in the USA. President Bush took the war to the enemy, and kept it there. Now that POTUS after Bush has declraeded "peace", the war has nowhere else to go except back to the civillian population of the USA.
I am in no position to comment on CIA ops of any kind. I do recall POTUS after Ford mucking about with the CIA with no good outcome for our intel folks.
As an aside, any bets on how long it will be before Israel goes after Iran?
The legacy of POTUS after Ford has life anew,IMHO!
