President Obama and CIA Director John Brennan (White House/ Pete Souza)
CIA Chief Made Secret Trip To Pakistan -- Express Tribune
ISLAMABAD: The head of the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) paid a secret visit to Pakistan last week to discuss key issues concerning the regional security particularly the Afghan endgame.
A senior security official confirmed to The Express Tribune that CIA Director John Brennan traveled to Islamabad last Friday and held meetings with Army Chief General Raheel Sharif and his Pakistani counterpart Lt General Zaheerul Islam.
However, the official, who requested anonymity as he was not authorised to speak to the media, insisted that he only ‘paid a courtesy call’ on the Army Chief. “It was a routine visit,” the official added.
This was the first visit by the US spymaster to Pakistan since he was appointed CIA chief in March 2013.

My Comment: They are calling the CIA Director's visit a "courtesy call" .... yeah right. It is not hard to figure out what was discussed .... the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, Al Qaeda and other terror groups, CIA conducting drone strikes, sharing intelligence, and arms deals.
