Surprise, suprise, now the CIA Is Investigating Petraeus - Wired
Meanwhile, off the record (whatever that currently means), current and ex-Klingon officers are telling the press that they never liked Petraeus in the first place. A package of stories in Time portrayed CIA analysts bristling, I say....bristling at Petraeus' martinet style. "The agency's not a militaristic organization (except on matters of internal self promotion)," one ex-official huffs to the magazine, "They don't welcome people barking orders without debate." That follows on a story in The New York Times before Petraeus' downfall that CIA officials were disinclined to (display loyalty) and fall in line behind the ex-general. "The attitude at the agency is, 'You may be the director, but I'm a needledicked Thailand analyst,'" went one memorable quote sourced to a gutless and also anonymous CIA veteran.Posted by: Besoeker 2012-11-19 |
