While the ultimate source is probably the CIA, this is the Jerusalem Post reporting about an upcoming book by an academic historian—so it’s presumably been vetted by a few other parties.
The term "vetted" is doing a lot of heavy work there. "Laundered" would be far more accurate in this context of imperialist invention of reality or consent manufacturing.
Are you ok?
"Its OK that someone kills someone else because some time in the past bad things happened"
We are aware that the CIA is not an angel but at the same time is not right to sponsor death penalties because someone else did it in the past.
I would like to know how you define "the past". Because the CIA is still active, and I am hard presses to think that they are not involved in the same activities that they have been since their inception. My response was flippant, as any loss of a life is horrible, but the CIA has plenty of blood on its hands, and nefarious intent.
The CIA is still doing shit, I just don't understand you usonians, you think that simply because the CIA doesn't declassify intel 50 years after they do shit they don't do it, and then that allows you the moral background to say "yeah well it's the past, forget it". Yeah, in the '50s you'd say they're not doing in anything while in fact they were installing fascists regimes all over latinoamerica, imagine what they're doing now, but I guess blind faith.
