THE SPOOKS ARE AT IT AGAIN!

THE SPOOKS ARE AT IT AGAIN!
(Washington Post/Frazer Chronicle)

Deny, deny, deny, don't record anything, and never, never make a video tape of anything.....anyway a video you might be required to share someday. These are the rules of the intelligence world today.....actually they have been the rules since the 1st. Secret Agent Man raised his right hand, pledged an oath and went to work in the middle to late 19th century.

Did you ever "really" wonder what makes a good cop.....well I have, and I've come to one kind of disturbing understanding, "good cops don't trust.....anybody, probably even their mothers. Good cops presume guilt before they even think about innocents. Their "collars or perps" are guilty as hell, and all of their efforts and energies are to prove the guilt.

Along the way, some evidence might get lost or discarded that might not fit the scenario of guilt, after all, things get misplaced every single day of our lives. No matter whether you’re a victim, or a "catch" of the process, the good cop wants you to go to jail and be punished for your crime.

In the world of intelligence, you, like spy stuff, a person can be snatched, interrogated.....for weeks, months, or even years and all the time, you do not have the right to.....well, actually you don't have rights. Sleep deprivation, huh, try urination and deification deprivation, when normal bodily functions are not allowed, or punishment is administered, your life can truly be a living hell.


The intelligence community, as those in the "community" like to call it, is a sprawling apparatus of the United States Government, its mission statement, "to protect American interests everywhere." Whether you are at home or abroad, their goals are 1st and foremost to get the bad guys and to protect the homeland.

The United States has approximately 30 intelligence agencies at the current time; I'm surprised that their identities are even revealed, given the atmosphere of today's intelligence community. The members of these elite organizations are often referred to as American heroes, public servants, or soldiers for freedom and the American way.

Most of their operating budgets are classified, there is not a published list of its active members and their duties, responsibilities and any oversight is minimal. A prerequisite is that members have to look good in a black suit and sun glasses, and that my friends is usually it. "Oh ya," they can't trust anybody.

It reminds me of a good spy novel.....oh wait, these guys are actual real spies, they have guns and are licensed to kill, and I watch James Bond movies.

There however is one thing wrong with probably 90% of the men and women who are actual real spies, they are in the profession because it gives them a rush, hell probably have of them are bi-polar or some kind of "ism." Most of these people aren't right, they care dangerous and really, really can't be trusted.

These people break heads, make people disappear, and use every trick in the bloody book of intelligence to get their man, even if the man isn't the right one. Like cops and law enforcement, it's all about numbers.

Secret prisons has housed detainees for years, no visitation, no parole and no yard time, just the day upon day of interrogation. There aren't any lawyers, no public defenders, no judges and for sure, no friendlies. It's no wonder that these people "break," hell I'm sitter here in front of my computer, and if there was a hint that I was under suspension for something, I'd admit guilt, as opposed to "hanging" with these guys.

I am not against intelligence agencies, or against protecting United States interests, both at home and abroad, I guess I'd like a little more transparency. I want a Congressional committee aware of what is going on with these people at all times. And I would like a yearly report, complete with back-up proof on every action taken by the intelligence community published.....for public reading.

Without public oversight, how can you tell the players without a program.....and that my friend, is never a good thing.
