50 Spies Say ISIS Intelligence Was Cooked

It’s being called a ‘revolt’ by intelligence pros who are paid to give their honest assessment of the ISIS war—but are instead seeing their reports turned into happy talk.

More than 50 intelligence analysts working out of the U.S. military’s Central Command have formally complained that their reports on ISIS and al Qaeda’s branch in Syria were being inappropriately altered by senior officials, The Daily Beast has learned.

The complaints spurred the Pentagon’s inspector general to open an investigation into the alleged manipulation of intelligence. The fact that so many people complained suggests there are deep-rooted, systemic problems in how the U.S. military command charged with the war against the self-proclaimed Islamic State assesses intelligence.

“The cancer was within the senior level of the intelligence command,” one defense official said.

Our entire government is now so cancerous, it will take Trump and Carson 8 years plus to purge it out and get us somewhat back on track.

It's all entertainment. The next pres has already been selected. You really think any one person can make a change? Politics is just like pro wrestling, it's all scripted.

The ONLY way there will be any meaningful and lasting change is if 'we the people' can come together and take control. It is beginning to happen with different groups of people. I just hope I live long enough to see it come to fruition.

Get you kids out of the indoctrination camps they call schools. Turn off your t.v.'s. Get humble. Put your egos in a shoebox somewhere. Stop competing with one another and help one another. We are all in this together and live on the same planet.
