CIA: Trained to lie, ready to kill, out to survive

The CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) is a civilian [allegedly] foreign intelligence service that actually operates illegally within the country.

It is an arm of the federal government of the United States of America tasked by the White House with advancing national "security" through collecting and analyzing intelligence from around the world and conducting covert operations (black ops).

The agency, sometimes called The Company, is headquartered in the George Bush Center for Intelligence in Langley, Virginia, sometimes metonymously called "Langley."

CIA Director Bush heads legacy in White House

A major member of the United States Intelligence Community (IC), the CIA has reported to the director of national intelligence since 2004 and is focused on providing intelligence for the president (POTUS) and his/her Cabinet, though it also provides intelligence for a variety of other entities including the United States Armed Forces and foreign allies it favors, such as Israel.

The CIA is headed by a director and is divided into various "directorates," including a Directorate of Analysis and Directorate of Operations.

CIA black ops: covert operations

(Insider) How the CIA black ops actually work (covert operations)

King Bush? - No, Dalai Lama, president.

Unlike the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), the CIA has no law enforcement function and is supposed to only focus on intelligence gathering overseas, outside of the country. But it admits to limited domestic intelligence collection [8]. No one defines "limited," leaving it as unlimited as the CIA chooses.

The CIA is responsible for coordinating ALL human intelligence (HUMINT) activities in the IC [excluding the more secretive branches, arms, agencies, and ragtag criminals enlisted to commit crimes in black budget programs].

I like your dad, King Georgie. - Thanks, Dolly.

The CIA claims it has been instrumental in establishing intelligence services in many countries, and it provides funds and support to many foreign organizations.

The CIA exerts foreign political "influence" through its paramilitary operations units, including its Special Activities Center.

The CIA has also provided funds and support to several foreign political groups and governments, such as Israel's, including planning, coordinating, training, and carrying out torture, and technical support.

The CIA has been involved in many "regime changes" (assassinating, deposing, and disappearing leaders) and carrying out planned assassinations of foreign officials, leaders, and conducting terrorist attacks against unarmed civilian noncombatants, as it deems fit. More
