Louis Proyect said: Trump never should have messed with the CIA. These guys are past masters of dirty tricks. Ken Hiebert replies: Whatever differences Trump has with the CIA, he is basically in harmony with their goal of manifesting US power around the world. But let's imagine that he actually intended to curb the CIA. In that instance, he would have no choice but to "mess with the CIA." In which case, we would need to go beyond the observation that the CIA can do him much harm and think of how we might take advantage of such a dispute to further our own political goals re the CIA. I cannot claim to know who is lying and who is truthful in this dispute. I do think the CIA would be taking a big risk if it's just making up this story. Sooner or later, the truth will out. _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
