CIA: from intelligence agency to killing machine

RT America - 2013-05-09

War as we know it has gradually changed. Troops on the ground have given way to drone strikes, and the CIA is not just an intelligence gathering agency anymore. It is a trend that escalated during the George W. Bush administration and has continued into the Obama presidency, but not every mission has been for a noble cause. Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times journalist Mark Mazzetti joins RT's Meghan Lopez to discuss us to discuss this trend. He is the author of the book 'The Way of the Knife: The CIA, a Secret Army, and a War at the Ends of the Earth.'
