Speaking purely as a conspiracy nut, who may not be of sound mind, the US intelligence apparatus is not a homogeneous bloc, all working together and pulling in the same direction like a yoke of oxen. instead it (as well as the Russian intel apparatus and some others around the world) is more like a many-headed hydra. It tries to cover all directions at once, but each head may not know what the other knows or is doing, and they occasionally snap at one another when trying to get a bite on the same morsel.
It actually reminds me more of a pack of coyotes snapping at one another over the same loop of gut from a downed elk pretty often.
It can be a sight to behold they way their hackles rise when required to "cooperate" on the same matter. How much more so when they are dealing with entirely alien agencies and persons?
Cheers Ninurta, it's just that if any of the reports that come to light occasionally are true, then who were
the agency actually trying to benefit? Is it spying on US citizens or is that just collateral damage of something
unsaid?
What I'm aiming at is are these agencies serving their country and just sometimes, a slain person or explosion
is mere fallout of the greater-good...? or is it more about improving their own private collective because of
a 'bigger' agenda?!
