>Why is the CIA attacking anything?
Because George the First, as CIA head, decided to save money by cutting out pretty much all HUMINT in favor of cheaper ELINT, so we lost almost ANYbody on the ground in the Middle East. So now we don't know who is who or who is where, so we blow up who and what we can when we get hints. Only we miss a lot, given time lag, questionable intel data, and (apparently) bad targeting software.
Joke now popular in Pakistan: "Why did the Pakistani girl break up with her American boyfriend? Because he always launches his missiles from 10,000 feet."
Nice going, George: BOTH of you.
