– and the process is still broken.
American Military News:
New reporting has surfaced about a stunning intelligence failure which is a direct result of disastrous intelligence community policies put in place by former CIA director John Brennan during President Obama’s administration.
Under Brennan, the method of intelligence activity changed from the CIA directly running espionage and covert action programs under their own terms to a philosophy of working through our overseas foreign partners. This was done through a highly controversial and hotly contested modernization program. As a result, there were improvements in technical aspects of intelligence but at the same time, it dissolved the operations cadre and divisions where espionage and covert action expertise resided with disastrous results. While this shift in policy has had a devastating record of failure, rarely is the failure as public as it has been during the still ongoing Syrian Civil War which began in 2011.
According to the newly uncovered information, the CIA initiated their part of the Syrian program by following the Brennan doctrine of turning to their foreign partners. The CIA asked their Turkish counterparts at The Turkish National Intelligence Organization (TNIO) to identify Syrians that were willing to fight in support of US interests in the newly established Free Syrian army. The TNIO was to fully vet the individuals to make sure they were not radical Islamists and the TNIO was well paid for their support. The TNIO did in fact locate thousands of individuals who were subsequently trained and equipped by the CIA. MORE
Knowing that Brennan was involved in the strategy leaves no doubt it was headed for failure.
If not for democrat policy the US wouldn’t be so roundly hated around the world.
With plenty of support from scumbags like McCain and Graham no doubt. Just last October Graham said any withdrawal from Syria was a “disaster in the making”. Then Senator Fluffer actually sat down and spoke with the President and his tune changed… https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/10/20/lindsey_graham_after_talking_to_trump_about_syria_im_increasingly_optimistic_this_could_turn_out_very_well.html

“Barack Obama’s CIA chief, John Brennan, told the Annual Legislative Conference of the Congressional Black Caucus, on 15 September 2016, in Washington DC, that when he had applied in 1980 to join the CIA, he admitted to them that in the 1976 Presidential election, .. (he) had voted instead for the candidate of the U.S. Communist Party, Gus Hall, and that he was then greatly relieved to find that this information didn’t cause rejection of his CIA-application….”
[[ It should have. ]]
“In 2013, when the Obama Administration was intensifying its efforts, in conjunction with the Sauds, to replace Russia-allied Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad, the Wall Street Journal reported that
“Mr. Brennan has been in periodic contact by phone with Prince Bandar”, who until 9/11 had been personally financing at least two of the 15 Saudis who were among the 19 hijackers/pilots; and, moreover, Bandar and his brothers were the main funders of Al Qaeda throughout the period leading up to 9/11…”

There’s little difference between John Brennan and a POS. The main difference is the POS is much lower stench scale.
@ Extirpates: Hell, I”LL buy the rope, stretch it and oil it…
Why is obama not yet in prison for being a traitor?
Those two damn Moslems need justice served to them in a dog dish.
