CIA...... Hmmmm suicide..... plane crash?? hmmm car crash!! pick one.

whistleblowers..... are not rewarded anymore, Go figure...

In the annals of national security, the Obama administration will long be remembered for its unprecedented crackdown on whistleblowers. Since 2009, it has employed the World War I–era Espionage Act a record six times to prosecute government officials suspected of leaking classified information. The latest example is John Kiriakou, a former CIA officer serving a thirty-month term in federal prison for publicly identifying an intelligence operative involved in torture. It’s a pattern: the whistleblowers are punished, sometimes severely, while the perpetrators of the crimes they expose remain free.

if you want to be a 'whistleblower', the CIA may not be the agency for you.

army, navy, marines, etc., i can understand whistleblowing. CIA? It seems their job is to carry out clandestine activity in foreign countries that no one should ever know about.

I disagree. You can reveal illegal activity without divulging classified information. The American people should have known that the Obama regime was transferring Russian weapons from Bengazi to rebels. That is why it was attacked.

"Resolution 1970 condemned the bombing of civilians, imposed travel restrictions on Qaddafi and his inner circle, froze assets and, importantly, banned any transfer of arms to or from Libya. In addition, Res. 1970 requires member states, upon discovery of such arms, to destroy them."
