Hit Parade

Cheney's hit squad. American Conservative (07.14.09), via BalloonJuice:

"The first hit attempt was in Kenya, was botched, and the deltas had to be bailed out by the Ambassador who had not been briefed on what was going on under his nose. The program was suspended after that but never quite terminated."

CIA Hit Teams

"The assassins were to be drawn from CIA’s own special ops group and also from delta force. They would enter the target countries as businessmen on false passports...."

Good plan, yes? Well, maybe no. The CIA "quickly discovered that white boys born in the American south sporting crewcuts and speaking no foreign language had difficulties in blending in as foreign businessmen."

Ya think?
