How to get ahead by doing all the wrong things may be the title of some memoirs when current CIA employees retire.
According to an MSNBC story, the CIA has not only failed to punish employees for making huge mistakes, they have promoted some of them to plumb positions within the bureaucracy.
The CIA needs to have someone from the outside who understands our real world needs where security is concerned come in and clean house.
There has been something wrong inside the CIA for decades and it hasn't gone away just because Obama is in office.

"Christmas Tree" bomber thwarted by feds
A Somali born naturalized citizen attempted to detonate a van bomb at a tree lighting ceremony in Portland Oregon on Friday.
Mohamed Osman Muhamud (whose name will be only reluctantly given by most of the press) believed that he had a van full of explosives that would be set off by cell phone.
When he dialed the number, waiting FBI agents arrested him.
He was yelling "Allahu Akbar!" as he was taken away.
Muhamud came to the FBI's attention when he began communicating with an "associate" located in Pakistan via e-mail.
The FBI pretended to be another associate of the first contact and took over communication with Muhamud, eventually providing him with fake explosives and watching him for many months prior to the arrest.
One damning act by this Yahoo is the stereotypical Jihad video he made.
Instant confession.

Donkey bomb fails
Call PETA. They need to head to the Gaza border to protect the poor donkeys from terrorists.
A Syrian backed group took credit for detonating a cart full of explosives near the border checkpoint, killing only the donkey and injuring no one.
This is an appalling and callous crime against a poor, defenseless animal and it has to stop!
Get a bunch of animal rights activists and drop them into the Gaza strip.

Air Crash in Libya kills 103
An Afriqiyah Airways Airbus A330-200 crashed on landing approach in Libya today. One Dutch child is listed as surviving.
The Triploi International Airport, where the plane was attempting to land, has no precision approach controls.
The weather and visibility were good and there were no reported issues with the plane or with the airline's safety and maintenance history.
The plane was delivered new in 2009.
Why post this story?
The Lockerbee bomber, who killed 270 people (in the plane and on the ground) Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi was set free to return to Libya for his final days on earth in August of 2009.
He was not expected to live more than a few months and he has since made "a miraculous recovery" since returning home.
That's right!
After more than a year of surviving and, apparently, thriving; this murderous waste of space is enjoying life because his jailers caved and set him free out of "compassion".
I am certain this compassion will encourage terrorists to be nicer people.

Navy Seal Matthew McCabe "Not Guilty"
Hurrah!
Another of the Navy Seals charged with assaulting a terrorist in their custody has been found not guilty.
McCabe was the one (of three) Seals charged and was the one actually charged with assaulting the terrorist who was responsible for the killing and mutilation of American contractors in Iraq..
Here is the transcript of his interview with Fox News.
The General in charge of the trial insisted that he went ahead with the charges because it is the "Best way to get to the truth".

NY Bomber suspect caught by throw-away phone
Isn't technology great!
Combine it with amateur terrorists and you catch the guy as he tries to fly to Dubai.
It is becoming clearer that this guy was not very good at building bombs, covering his tracks, or keeping his house.
Thank god he was too lame to do it right!
Too bad their are a lot like him still out there being defended and comforted by our leftist friends.
BTW, unlike many MSM stories this one tells the reader that this guy is Pakistani.

Umm, We did it! That's right. I was us!
Pakistani Taliban take credit for NY bomb that bombed.
A tape found on a Muslim site claims that Taliban operatives are responsible for the failed SUV bomb in Times Square over the weekend.
Though no details of the actual bomb or SUV were offered, the speaker claims the bomb is revenge for the killing of Baitullah Meshud and that they have delivered a "jaw breaking" blow to the great satan.
How embarrassing to gloat over a bomb that fizzled.
I bet the guys down at the local Mosque are really giving the spokesman a hard time for that.

I'm Not Dead Yet
Fighting terror can be like Whack-a-Mole.
You take out one guy and another pops up somewhere else.
Even worse; some don't stay dead after you announce that they have assumed room temperature.
Take Hakimullah Mehsud for instance.
He was supposedly taken out months ago, and here he is with not one, but two new videos (maybe an album too).
That's just what happens when you think you can fight terror from 20 thousand feet.
