The CIA is training landscapers, poolmen, and interior designers
August 15, 2008
by Tim Swanson
The US military recently accused Iran of training "death squads" whose
primary goal is carrying out assassinations. The information is being
made public to supposedly "pressure" Iranian leadership into halting
these operations.
So if Iranian assassins are called "death squads" what are similarly
trained operatives from the CIA or Army called?
Perhaps the euphemisms that Pentagon officials use are: customer
service representatives, safety patrol officers, personal assistants,
and make-over specialists.
While the actions of both sides are essentially premeditated murder,
the CIA and Army special forces should also come clean about their
decades old operations involving the execution of foreign nationals.
Come clean on operations in Guatemala, El Salvador, Vietnam, and even
Iran itself.
Contemporaneously, after deafening calls to reinstate the official
sanctioning of assassinations, the legacy of director Richard Helms
continues unabated,as the Pentagon continues to fund and operate the
notorious School of the Americas at Fort Bragg which has trained
hundreds of foreign nationals with assassination tactics.
Furthermore, despite being banned in the 1970s — after revelations
disclosed by the Church and Pike committees — with the assistance of
Israeli Defense Forces, the US Army has been actively training
"hunter-killer" squads in Iraq under a program called Operation Gray
Fox.
And the latest act of bellicosity: this hypocritical condemnation
comes a month after an exposé showed that last year, Congress
appropriated $400 million for the CIA to conduct clandestine
operations in Iran.
While the exact nature of the operations are undisclosed, it is
difficult to fathom that the funds are financing more plumbers,
carpenters, and electricians in a covert attempt to build new homes
and infrastructure for local residents.
