Are you serious? That example is a far cry from acting like a bunch of incompetent bank robbers, like whoever conducted this present attack on the NK embassy.

I feel like you're talking about your impression of the CIA and that somehow makes you think that this fairly unprecedented and odd event .... somehow must be them.
I can't convince you otherwise, or even explain my own POV, if you have some strong belief that this must be them, even without much of any evidence.
I also don't think people care like you think they care.

That wasn't something I said.

Literally never said nor implied that.

I don't know what this is in response to.
Did you reply to the wrong post?

Some have claimed that their secrecy is less about national security, and more about job security. If the public knew their mistakes, they would have been disbanded a long time ago (although similar claims have been made about the UK's SIS).
