Bush Orders Revamping Of Intelligence Gathering
Joby Warrick
Washington Post
Thursday, July 31, 2008
President Bush ordered a major restructuring of the nation’s intelligence-gathering community yesterday, approving new guidelines aimed at bolstering the authority of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) as the leader of the nation’s 16 spy agencies.
The long-awaited overhaul of Executive Order 12333 gives the DNI greater control over spending and priority-setting, and also over contacts with foreign intelligence services — a responsibility that has traditionally fallen to the CIA, according to a Bush administration document describing the changes.
Executive Order 12333, which was originally issued by President Ronald Regan in 1981, established the powers and responsibilities of the major U.S. intelligence services. Administration officials have been quietly negotiating the overhaul for more than a year, seeking to modernize the law to reflect the new role of the DNI as the head of the intelligence community. The DNI was created by Congress three years ago in the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, but critics have charged that the agency was not given the budgetary and policy-setting authorities it needs to lead the intelligence community.

Details of the revamped order were expected to be unveiled by the White House today, but a summary of the major changes was spelled out in a White House PowerPoint presentation shared in advance with congressional oversight committees. The eight-page slide presentation was obtained by The Washington Post.
The main purpose of the reforms was to “clarify and strengthen the role of the DNI as head of the intelligence community,” the presentation states. The new order gives the DNI primary authority to issue “overarching policies and procedures” and to ensure that intelligence collection is coordinated among the 16 agencies. It also conveys greater power to set spending priorities and establish standards for training and tradecraft.

What sounds like an administrative move is actually quite sinister. It puts all 16 US intelligence agencies on a par with the CIA for interfering directly in foreign affairs.

Here’s how the article reads if you substitute the translation table:
>>>Central Bankers Order Revamping Of Fictional Justification Gathering
Central Bankers ordered a name change of the nation’s fictional justification-gathering cabal yesterday, approving ancient mandates aimed at removing the accountability of the Office of the Director of National Fictional Justification (DNFJ) as the leader of the nation’s 16 spy agencies.
The surprise power grab of Imperial Decree 12333 gives the DNFJ greater control over spending and priority-setting, and also over contacts with foreign fictional justification services — a responsibility that has traditionally fallen to the CIA, according to a Central Banker document describing the changes.
Imperial Decree 12333, which was originally issued by President Ronald Regan in 1981, established the powers and responsibilities of the major U.S. fictional justification services. Administration officials have been quietly negotiating the overhaul for more than a year, seeking to entrench tyranny to reflect the new role of the DNFJ as the head of the fictional justification cabal. The DNFJ was created by Congress three years ago in the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, but critics have charged that the agency was not given the budgetary and policy-setting authorities it needs to lead the fictional justification cabal.
Details of the revamped order were expected to be obscured by the White House today, but a summary of the major changes was spelled out in a White House PowerPoint presentation shared in advance with Mr Magoo. The back of a napkin presentation was obtained by The Washington Post.
The main purpose of the contractor profit opportunity was to “clarify and strengthen the role of the DNFJ as head of the fictional justification cabal,” the presentation states. The new order gives the DNFJ primary authority to issue “overarching policies and procedures” and to ensure that fictional justification is coordinated among the 16 agencies. It also conveys greater power to set spending priorities and establish standards for training and tradecraft.<<<

That’s it? That’s going to be the big false flag scenario that we are all going to witness? Just one fake assassination attempt which results in the evaporation of all civil liberties and a county-wide round up of all the truth seeking (on the web no less) conspirators? In all fairness, you sound like the weatherman. In fact, I’ll say even the weatherman comes closer to success in predicting the future than the measly scenario you have put forth (which isn’t saying a lot).
Some how I doubt this is going to be how things turn out and expect it to unfold in a more complicated way. That’s just me though. I do believe that anyone arrogant enough to assume to predict the future (unless they’re deemed a prophet for the religious types here) is acting quite foolish. By what authority can you assert such things?

“Some see a failure; I see a big success
Using our terror to undermine the whole U.S.
When the towers came down, and everybody froze
Bush and Giuliani came up smelling like a rose
Traitor…Dare call it treason”
