    advising

    “Advising” is mostly CIA etc isn’t it? Their advisers in other parts of the world engaging in human rights abuses haven’t exactly been benign.

      Green berets, other special forces.

      CIA isn’t particularly helpful aside from smuggling drugs and doing actual dirty shit.

      Usually, when “troops” are mentioned they’re from the Department of Defense. The CIA is its own separate entity outside the DoD, so I would say no. Advisers are related to most likely logistical, and operational.

        @Madison_rogue thanks, that does make more sense. CIA don’t normally broadcast their activities.

        Ok so the US Department of Defense are going to supply logistical and operational support for what the Israeli Defense Forces are doing?
