    Thinly veiled propaganda piece
    It has been a well known fact for a while now, that all mainstream media must first relay a report to the CIA before printing it, it shouldn't come as a surprise that they also do this with the film industry. Most of our population has been brainwashed into believing these people actually keep us safe, where a very good argument can be said to the opposite. Every CIA director has the personality of a self-righteous psychopath, so this is no surprise, them trying to moralize their cruel actions. Does anyone think it's a coincidence that two months after JFK voiced his plans to get rid of the CIA, that he was murdered? The CIA is simply the world's leading terrorist organization in the world by leaps and bounds.
