A Silly Criticism Of The “Intelligence Community”

It's being called an “intelligence failure” and a big “embarrassment” that the CIA and it's junior partner and clone, the KCIA (South Korean secret police) didn't find out about the death of the North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il until the hermetically-sealed near-hermit cult state announced it, 48 hours (apparently) after the fact.

So? How soon did anyone need to know? Why was it so essential to know the second he croaked?

One alleged “reason” is so the U.S. could “prepare” for how to deal with North Korea under the pudgy son who inherited the cultship. As if much changes, or an extra two days to make new schemes is so essential.

Contrary to the mythology and mystique created by the media about the secret police agencies like the CIA, they're not omniscient (thankfully!). (The CIA of course has a hand in creating this propaganda mystique, as does the FBI. Talk about being hoist on one's own petard.)

There is plenty of well-earned criticism, indeed moral condemnation to the strongest degree, that can (and should!) be made of the so-called “intelligence community” for its many crimes against humanity, including mass murder. Nitpicking over the lack of perfection in things like finding out something as soon as it happens, which will inevitably be learned by everyone soon enough, is the kind of petty cavil that bourgeois reporters and commentators use to pretend to be skeptics and critics, when in fact they're really stooges and aiders and abettors of the secret police. They would never criticize the secret police about what really matters.
