Canceling the program to target AQ.



CIA Assassin Plan Was Set to Go Active


CIA officials were proposing to activate a plan to train anti-terrorist assassination teams overseas when agency managers brought the secret program to the attention of CIA Director Leon Panetta last month, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

...

Shortly after learning of the plan, CIA Director Leon Panetta terminated the program and then went to Capitol Hill to brief lawmakers, who had been kept in the dark since 2001.

5. I tend to be very indirect...
Thanks for noticing :hi:

Though I suspect that will be the reTHUGs next talking point, if it ain't already... though i think we should co-opt it since this cover story is obviously a SCAM.

They have to called on it.

9. Or, if this is just truthiness, then I demand that they bring our troops Home, NOW!
Right?

If we canceled a program to take out AQ then the WOT must be over.
