Architect of Terror
Brennan, as the new Director (confirmation is clear, given both parties agree on precisely the need for E.I.T. and armed drones for targeted assassinatiion), is like sending a serial arsonist to quell a five-alarm fire. Obama’s decision to nominate him speaks volumes about his own similarly fascistic leanings and willingness to violate international law—Brennan and his vast expansion of Bush’s campaign of assassination, and further expansion of secrecy, for that program, and presumably all matters under the head of national security.
