    I love our Country, The consitution and principles that ran it. What happened to the philosophy that we had an obligation to operate above board, to be an example to the rest of the civilized world? I believe it's a shame the C.I.A. seems to be running our foreign policy, with domestic and international laws ignored. I'm beginning to think our national motto should be changed to "it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission".
    It doesn't matter that other nations or groups break the laws. That's what used to differentiate us from them. When we break the law, we bring ourselves down to their level, which some may say is necessary to counter their efforts, but have all options been ignored?

    O.K. I'm extremely confused. First I'm reading about this case on one of the major media outlets in America. Second I've searched all over the internet and still can't find a picture of these C.I.A agents.Lots of stories pretty much stating what this story states but nothing really different about this story from other countries or as some state better coverage of what America does in the world.Also wasn't this guy a jihadist. Still confused about what the big deal is. When is there going to be the story of Al-Qeada breaking the law or any conventions. I pretty sure they have. Al-jezzara having exclusives of Al-qeada videos and audios sounds funny to me. About the only accurate statement was the military industrail complex. When are people going to worry about that . Oh and not just here in Goddless America but from other countries to. In the middle east the largest providers of wepons is the Russia followed by Iran then France. GEE. I should also note that usually those are the weapons of Goddless America's enemies. Also that torture denial video is useless of
    course we don't torture Syria and Egypt do. DUH. Lets see what else if some calls for a jihad (holy war) on some one I think that means you are at war. Isn't that what Abdul Omar was doing?
