If you look at history and believes that their CIA was better than the current CIA, that's just the nature of— I'm not saying it was better or worse.
But hang on.
Exactly.
But hang on.
ODNI didn't – or at least according to, shall we say, the New York Times, which must have come from the White House, CIA provided the intelligence.
Exactly.
So there you go.
You don't think it was CIA?
Here's the thing.
And I'm going to disagree a little bit.
I mean, I'm going to disagree because I think that – OK, look at past situations where the United States attempted to do a decapitation strike and then have a regime change.
You can look at Iraq.
We tried to kill Saddam Hussein, failed, and then a disaster blows up.
Libya tried to kill Gaddafi, fails, a disaster blows up.
Iran –
tries to kill the regime or decapitate the regime and succeeds.
So are you saying that you believe that's because in the other situations, the intelligence was coming from the CIA who didn't have such great intelligence?
And in this situation, the intelligence was coming from Israel who did?
No, I'm saying that that.
