The Worst Secret Agency In The World: The C.I.A.

August 12, 2007 · Filed Under Politics

In case I disappear, I love you all. Joke, unless I do disappear.

Most people know about the Central Intelligence Agency being the opposite of what is supposed to be. In my history classes in Dominican Republic they taught us the ugly side of the United States of America, the side where they helped dictators stay in power and do nothing about it. The way they killed Che Guevara and many other things. People call Fidel Castro because he says the C.I.A. was/is trying to kill him and now that they released some “skeletons from the closet” everyone knows it is true. Same goes for Hugo Chavez who claims that the goverment is trying to kill him, I have no doubts about that either. What angers me is that most Americans believe anything the news feeds them. The C.I.A. is not so great, best example: they didn’t really know about 9/11 and they still can’t find Bin Laden but find all of his buddies.

I found this great article called The True — and Shocking — History of the CIA. It is based on a book called Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA written by someone who was part of the C.I.A. and knows all their dirty little secret. For years the C.I.A. has been supporting presidents, buying elections, trying to kill people, torture others, among many other things. Somehow they get over $40 billion on budget and they still can’t do their job right. It is a shame that the C.I.A. is still running, the NSA is probably doing a better job than them right now. The C.I.A. is considered a joke among intelligence groups, ask KGB members who knew the C.I.A. better than they did. I suggest for you to read the article and maybe the book so you could open your eyes and learn about what happens in politics and real life. Here is a part of the article:

The CIA’s incessant, almost always misguided, attempts to determine how other people should govern themselves; its secret support for fascists (e.g., Greece under George Papadopoulos), militarists (e.g., Chile under Gen. Augusto Pinochet), and murderers (e.g., the Congo under Joseph Mobutu); its uncritical support of death squads (El Salvador) and religious fanatics (Muslim fundamentalists in Afghanistan) — all these and more activities combined to pepper the world with blowback movements against the United States.
