Both Israeli and American intelligence have become so politicized in the last couple decades that they are incompetent.

They are so busy cooking up the politically correct product that the idea of producing honest product has been entirely forgotten.

The boss hears what he wants, the intel community produces what he wants to hear.

Everyone is happy and no one can figure out why one war after another is a disaster.

The intel weenies have done it again.

The politicians and generals have heard the career enhancing dreams they wanted, which were what they demanded.

Congratulations. After all, the nation of Israel has not learned the most important lesson of Lebanon.

Good intel has it`s eyes and mind open.

Not shut and locked.
