The truth about the CIA

After looking into it further, i came up with some very starteling news.


Some of you might know this but the CIA started the al Quaeda, the cia started it in 1988 to help fight the russians and keep them away fomr our oil, and you ask yourself, if they started the al quaeda what about Osama? They put osama in place as a go between from the cia to the al quaeda, If you look at it like this you now realize that we created our own problems. Now because he split away from the al quaeda and started the taliban, the cia didnt like that becasue they werent done with him, so now they just use him as scape goat for anymore problems that come up (e.i 9/11) heres an article about it.al Qaeda Guess what, hes not missing they know exactly where he is. hes is our governments employee.

heres a good one. Blowback: Bin Laden, the CIA and US war against Afghanistan, 9/13/01

From what I gather from discussions with other members here, I'd say we are aware of the connection you mentioned.

Isn't it sad that most either already know this or aren't surprised by it? America has created many of our own enemies.

Good point lady.

A lot of folks don't understand we helped Saddam develop into the monster he became either.

We don't seem to learn from our mistakes.

We need to start acknowledging they ARE mistakes before we learn anything from them. Nothing to learn if we never do anything wrong.

Well, you might have a point there Scribbler but given the mistakes we made in VietNam, which is the biggest mistake we made up to this point,IMO, we didn't learn much from that. I think everyone realizes that was a mistake.

Not everyone. I'm sure you have known a few people who blame the failure of Vietnam on the media, the protestors and "losing our will to win". The same mindset is in play now, with right wingers blaming the media, the Democrats and us "losing our will to win".

The CIA--a chuickshit org that will sacrifice mericans lives if the outcome will be beneficial to those in power. They have left American soldiers on a mountain in Cambodia, sent them on a mission they knew was going to fail and so forth. I have NO USE for the CIA.

I was screwed twice in Vietnam by the CIA and its cover Air America.

Most of our foreign policy blunders can be traced back to the C.I.A.

For an intelligence agency , they don't seem very intelligent .

Their more like instigators.
