CIA Spies Caught, Fear Execution in the Middle East.

I say hang them high - the CIA are responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths.
better yet, parade them on TV and show the world their identities so they never get the option of destroying a country ever again.

Maybe they are looking for a reason to start executing THEIR spies.

They didn't kill the um, hitchhikers.

There's got to be more to all that than what I've read so far.

Before you make such silly claims, keep in mind there is good and bad in every single large corporation, that includes the CIA. Sometimes they do things we are not prevy to, we may not agree with how they go about it, we may not understand the bigger picture as laymen. One thing IS for sure, they have taken out some very very dangerous people, no doubt they have some dangerous people working for them nevertheless.

What I have no doubt is this; there is fiction among their ranks just as there is among the Military, the White House, politicians, Police, and every other large corporation and institution.

This kind of stuff always happened during the Cold War with Soviet Union. Then there would be "spy swaps" later. If the spies were lucky, but mostly, the KGB would kill them.
Mostly it was due to people like Navy man John Walker. Sounds like someone with -access- who is secretly turncoating.

Now, if this story is to be believed, there are US 'assets' or 'spies' or 'operatives' or whatever you'd like to call them who were captured and now face death.

So, if it is next reported that they've been put to death, would that not be reason to start some sort of retaliatory measure . . . like bombing the snot out of someone/something/somewhere.

Consider this . . . is cutting the military's war budget something that cannot be done while the military is 'at war'?

Aren't there unilateral cuts coming as a result of the Supercommittee's failiure to come to an agreement on budget cuts?

Wouldn't another war somewhere boost the military's 'war budget' considerably?

Wouldn't something like this make the military somewhat immune to budgetary hack-n-slash?

Just askin' . . . .
