CIA Director Brennan: Wrong On ISIS, Benghazi, Caliphate, But Right On Russian Hackers?
"CIA Director John Brennan’s analysts have reportedly concluded with “high confidence” that Russia interfered in the 2016 election explicitly to help President-elect Donald Trump.
Other officials in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and the FBI have pushed back against the claim saying there is simply not enough evidence.
Brennan’s tenure has been marred by high-profile intelligence mishaps with the Islamic State and the 2012 Benghazi attacks."
STRIKE ONE: CALIPHATE
Brennan claimed in 2011 it was unfathomable to think Islamic terrorists could create a caliphate in the Middle East. Brennan doubled down too, saying, “That vision is absurd, and we are not going to organize our counter-terrorist polices against a feckless delusion that is never going to happen.” Brennan served as chief counter-terrorism advisor to President Barack Obama at the time.
STRIKE TWO: ISIS
Various al-Qaida elements in Iraq formed the basis of the Islamic State terrorist group — ISIS — which now controls vast swaths of territory in Syria and Iraq. ISIS capabilities were “not on my intelligence radar screen,” Obama confirmed to CNN Dec. 7, as the would-be caliphate began sweeping across Iraq towards Mosul.
STRIKE 3: BENGHAZI
Brennan played a role in drafting the ill-fated talking points in the aftermath of the Benghazi attack for then-U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice. Rice famously claimed that the attack was a “spontaneous — not a premeditated” protest gone awry, based on evidence assembled for her by Brennan.

This is the same CIA that denied it was running weapons to Al Qaeda and ISIS from Benghazi....
The CIA has lied and has been DEAD-WRONG on some of the LARGEST issues in the middle east...but now it wants to be believed in regards to the Russians?!
I'm not saying they are wrong this time - as even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every now and then - but they sure as hell have made it hard to believe anything they say without them offering up DEFINITIVE proof!
