#1 Very crafty. Maybe DEA should be made part of the CIA.

That would punish them both.

#2 The agency had at least a peripheral role in the Betancourt rescue — a DEA operation inserted bugged satellite phones into the FARC

Posted at the Rant as a possible probable the day after it went down. Post-operation publicity will once again enusre that the success will not soon be repeaded.

#3 Would have thought the ATF would be involved in taking down an arms dealer. Since drugs finance a good deal of terror, it would make sense that DEA would be involved. They have had an international presence in crimes related to drug trafficking for some time.
