Solving the CIA’s PC Problems | FrontPage Magazine

In an earlier article (“PC Casualities”), I examined the dire effects of more than a decade of political correctness at the CIA. The most visible effect was the tragic death of seven CIA employees during a covert meeting on a forward operating base in Afghanistan.

The focus of the CIA is no longer on conducting effective intelligence operations against America’s enemies. Their focus is now, like most US government entities, bureaucratic survival and establishing a “diverse” workforce. Their affirmative action approach to selecting and promoting operations officers resulted in seven dead at Khost.

However, there are many more insidious effects that are unseen to the general public. Those who care about the safety and security of our country, and the viability of our civilian national covert action and intelligence collection organization, must speak out against the destructive effects of PC in the CIA, and its debilitating effects on covert operations.
