wow, so if um uh the netinyahu government says 10 israeli soldiers were killed. uh, but it really is 50, would the cia know that and be in a position to contradict them? i mean, stated differently, are there cia assets on the ground in gaza, reporting back to langly about what's happening, or even coordinating with israeli intelligence? i would bet there are, uh, if you went to the government and ask them if there were was a presence of intelligence officers or military officers. they would tell you, oh no, no, no boots on the ground, but we've seen in the case of ukraine, that's a lie, so i would suspect they're right up front there, if only to be able to to service intermediaries in terms of the use of some of these weapons systems and also probably intelligence equipment, that is analogous in terms of offensive equipment, and i would imagine there are people. on the ground for that, they might be undercover as contractors uh or or you know something else, it might even be diplomats uh cover, but i'm sure there. does the cia get involved in um military activities, in violence? now
