About what?

I mean, I disagree about what our (I'm French) are doing in some places, but its hardly been a secret.

The CIA and it's equivalent are not working to get those countries to a stable state, they are working to get them to a non threatening state. Big difference.

Europa has multiple terrorist attacks, let alone wave of refugees from unstable countries exported that change the dynamics of politics that result in many changes societies including polarization.

Maybe you mean they didn't realize non-state treat is bigger than threatening state? I don't really understand.
