| CIA DIRECTOR: "I want to make something absolutely clear. If you thought there was some secret cell somewhere, working al-Qaeda, then I want you to know that you are wrong. This is it. There's no working group coming to the rescue. There's nobody else hidden away on some other floor. There is just us. And we are failing. We're spending billions of dollars. People are dying! We are still no close to defeating our enemy. They attacked us! On land, in '98. By sea, in 2000. And from the air, in 2001. They murdered 3000 of our citizens in cold blood. And they have slaughtered our forward deployed! And what the fuck have we done about it? huh? What have we done? We have 20 leadership names, we've only eliminated four of them! I want targets. Do your fucking jobs. Bring me people to kill." |
