_________________________

we can start with the "kidnapping" of Maduro or delaying systematically (for decades) Iran from achieving a nuclear bomb. We can move backwards with the announcement of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia which was never believed by any other intelligence agency but the British. If Cuba is where it is today is due to CIA efforts despite political actions in the other direction carried out by countries such as Russia or China. We can think of the downsizing of ISIL all over the world, starting from Irak, Afghanistan, cornering Al Qaeda in Iran, containing ISIL in Libya and it all helping reduce the terrorist threat worldwide, as anyone can realize if one looks back to 2015 (at its peak). These are only a few public examples of those successes which you may not attribute to the CIA but it is not true. And there are many other successes which will not be public and which have likely a lot to do with containing Russia in Moldova, in Armenia, also dislodging the relationship between Turkey and Russia in many aspects...and all of it regardless of who was occupying the Oval office...and of course you may regard those topics as successes or not depending on the political glasses you wear, which I don't care, but security and stability in general ows a lot to its activity whether you believe it or not. If you prefer fixating on leaving Afghanistan (not a CIA decision), the financing of OBL against Russia (it was not financing Al Qaeda), not predicting the fall of the Soviet Union (I agree here)...let's not confuse the CIA with the US government. I am not precisely a great fan of the CIA and I am not a US citizen but denigrating institutions for free is so easy and there is always room to do it because institutions are made up of people, and people are people everywhere with their greatness and their misseries
