ReplyDelete"The Asia Foundation, though, isn't just any foundation. Officially, it's "a nonprofit international development organization committed to improving lives across a dynamic and developing Asia." In fact, it's the second iteration of an organization called "Committee for Free Asia" that the CIA founded in 1951. In 1954, the organization got a facelift as the Asia Foundation, but it remained on the CIA payroll until 1969. It still gets most of its funding from the U.S. government, although it's unclear what, if any role, the CIA plays."
It APPEARS the CIA is operating in the US.
Maybe the CIA going after the loyal opposition would look more palatable, if they actually won against the Chinese, Russians, Iranians, Taliban or others.
