The CIA's post-torture profits

[Solly Mack]

Adding insult to injury, some of those responsible have been rewarded with lucrative careers in the private sector. Tenet, for example, is making millions of dollars in the intelligence business, including as a board member for defence contractor QinetiQ. And Jose Rodriguez, the former director of the CIA's National Clandestine Service who ordered the destruction of CIA interrogation videotapes, works with former CIA director Mike Hayden at the oddly named National Interest Security Company, an intelligence contractor. It's shameful that people responsible for one of America's darkest chapters are so richly rewarded.

2. The Military Industrial Intelligence Complex turnstile

These people aren't government servants, they get paid very little while employed by the U.S. government. They know the real profits come after they leave and literally just sit on their asses while they let their previous connections make them millions of dollars. It's sickening. Such people are parasites.

3. Parasite is a good word for them.
