The suicide bomber who killed seven CIA agents in Afghanistan was an al-Qaeda triple agent, US media reports say.
He is said to have been a doctor from Jordan who was arrested by Jordanian intelligence a year ago.
He was then reportedly recruited by the Jordanians and CIA - who thought they had successfully turned him - and given a mission to find al-Qaeda leaders.
He is believed to have been working undercover in Afghanistan for weeks before detonating a bomb at a CIA base.
The attack at Forward Operating Base Chapman was the worst against US intelligence officials since the US embassy in Beirut was bombed in 1983.
Why did the CIA believe they could trust this man?
Indeed, why? Say this Cat lives..his vest not igniting as Alhaji's did, and those CIA agents he killed instead capture him?
What would be your suggestion on the next moves by US intel/military?
They would probably torture him and rightfully so. This is a war gentlemen. Deaths and stuff like this is to be expected.
Apparently they didn't know he was an agent for al Qaeda.Indeed, why? Say this Cat lives..his vest not igniting as Alhaji's did, and those CIA agents he killed instead capture him?

Congressman Dutch Ruppersberger, a Democratic member of the House Intelligence Committee, told the BBC it was important to find out why the CIA had not discovered the bomber was an al-Qaeda agent.
There is no sinking down to in war. Its war. People are bound to get killed either by torture or any one of those things that can kill you like a gun, bomb, etc.You are fighting him because you are supposedly better than he is. You sink to his level and he wins.
BBC News - CIA bomber was al-Qaeda triple agent, US media say
My first BN thread and my first thread on DP, hope Im doing it right.
Why did the CIA believe they could trust this man? Were they desperate for someone like him or did he seriously lead them on? This exploded literally and is probably could bring about some strong change in how things work.
Unfortunate.
You are fighting him because you are supposedly better than he is. You sink to his level and he wins.
If you have to 'sink' to some level in order to communicate heatedly with your spouse, I think you have an odd idea of what relationships are about.This ain't an argument with your spouse.

If my government, a Republic, tortures, then I am a torturer.
I don't mind being a warrior (by proxy), but I do mind being a torturer. I mind it very much.

Oh, I think the terrorists minded very much as well. I can imagine...no I really can't...as KSM is getting ready to have his 150th or so round of waterboarding boarding and we're unwinding the hoses to once again have a sinus cavity party with KSM...he's minding. And then singing like a canary.
Seeing as the cia torture memos came out stating there wasn't a single shred of evidence that has saved a single life garnered from any torture so far I don't know what your so proud about..
