I've Been Thinking:

On Friday the Associated Press reported that the Taliban of Pakistan took responsibility for the suicide bomber attack that killed seven CIA operatives.

The Taliban claim that the 8th CIA death was the suicide bomber.
They say he was someone whom they had turned into a double agent/assassin.

The Taliban are probably telling the truth.
Running locals as CIA agents is a double edged sword.

On one side they are your eyes and ears on the outside.

On the other side they have the ability to get close to you and your highest level operatives in the field.

What is essential here is that the Pakistani Taliban also have links to al Qaeda.

Al Qaeda is the nerve center of many Islamic terror networks.

We must never forget that.
