Haspel, CIA, Sappy Sentimental Job.

NYT today decided to praise Gina Haspel as "professional". I don't know what they teach in CIA anymore, judging by "outstanding" results for the United States, but this piece I found to be hilarious. Follow the text:

London was pushing for the White House to expel dozens of suspected Russian operatives, but Mr. Trump was skeptical. He had initially written off the poisoning as part of legitimate spy games, distasteful but within the bounds of espionage. Some officials said they thought that Mr. Trump, who has frequently criticized “rats” and other turncoats, had some sympathy for the Russian government’s going after someone viewed as a traitor.A former Russian intelligence officer, Sergei Skripal, and his daughter were poisoned last year in Britain in a slipshod attack that also sickened children, killed ducks and required careful cleanup. During the discussion, Ms. Haspel, then deputy C.I.A. director, turned toward Mr. Trump. She outlined possible responses in a quiet but firm voice, then leaned forward and told the president that the “strong option” was to expel 60 diplomats.To persuade Mr. Trump, according to people briefed on the conversation, officials including Ms. Haspel also tried to show him that Mr. Skripal and his daughter were not the only victims of Russia’s attack.Ms. Haspel showed pictures the British government had supplied her of young children hospitalized after being sickened by the Novichok nerve agent that poisoned the Skripals. She then showed a photograph of ducks that British officials said were inadvertently killed by the sloppy work of the Russian operatives.Ms. Haspel was not the first to use emotional images to appeal to the president, but pairing it with her hard-nosed realism proved effective: Mr. Trump fixated on the pictures of the sickened children and the dead ducks. At the end of the briefing, he embraced the strong option.

Now you get it, I hope. Welcome to US "intelligence", also known for Russiagate and support of terrorists. CIA also is known to have good skills in staging false flag operations such as "Chemical Attacks" by "Assad" in Syria. But I like this little insight in workings of US IC and its head Gina Haspel in handling forensic evidence, sound analysis, impressive record...nah, I am being facetious. Ah, yes--record, killed children, other atrocities. You may always keep yourself informed on how real US democracy and "realism" look like in terms of civilians' body count, but who counts really, right? The depravity and casuistic nature of this piece of dung "journalism" is stunning, but then again--being sappy sentimental when committing war crimes and pushing world closer to Armageddon is what US intelligence "professionals" like Haspel are known for. Well that, and torture techniques. I am sure Gina cried while waterboarding some unfortunate creep. It is so, well, emotional after all--especially dead ducks.
