Former Obama Intel Chief: Pentagon, Not CIA Should Control Drone Strikes

“Admiral Dennis Blair, the Director of National Intelligence from January 2009 to May 2010, told a Council on Foreign Relations conference call (formerly/http://www.cfr.org/counterterrorism/us-drone-strike-policies/p29849?cid=soc-Twitter-in-drones-drones_media_call-012213) that current U.S. policy has created ‘all kinds of legal knots’ regarding how and when America uses the controversial counterterrorism tactic.  Last week The Washington Post reported that the Obama administration is almost done with its ‘playbook’ designed to establish clear rules for targeted-killing operations, but the CIA will continue to be exempt from the rules for the next year or more.”
