Trump's betrayal of Ukraine is giving CIA officers PTSD says Senior CIA officer...

[justoffal]

I swear, I really did not know where to put this as it's so off the wall.

I’m a former U.S. intelligence officer. Trump's Ukraine betrayal will have terrible consequences.

Trust is so hard to gain, and yet so easily lost.

The United States is doing it again: walking away from allies. It is almost as if each U.S. presidency needs to practice betrayal as a form of statecraft. The examples of men and women who counted on our support are many. George H.W. Bush with the Kurds. Barack Obama with the Syrians. Donald Trump and Joe Biden with the Afghans. And now, Trump with the Ukrainians. America, the dependable ally, we are not.

I served as a U.S. intelligence officer in the field, often in dangerous conflict zones from Iraq to Syria to Afghanistan. I retired before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but as the Trump administration abandons this former American ally, PTSD is setting in for many of my ilk: the actual operational practitioners of U.S. foreign policy.

Your "PTSD" is worth none of our sons dying in the mud of a shithole country. Sorry we didn’t get WW3 going for you.

BTW....I didn't know you could get PTSD from doing illegal things.....More like the pain from the gravy train of unlimited operating cash to do evil things being over.

Oh yes it's so much better to keep the meat grinder going at 2000 per week.....no PTSD there! No sir!

If there is a section titled "criminal evil" it belongs there.

The CIA is the most dangerous criminal enterprise on the planet.
