The CIA should have been shut down years ago. The US does not need a secret police force.

Vision
We will provide knowledge and take action to ensure the national security of the United States and the preservation of American life and ideals.
Mission
We are the eyes and ears of the nation and at times its hidden hand. We accomplish this mission by:
Collecting intelligence that matters.
Providing relevant, timely, and objective all-source analysis.
Conducting covert action at the direction of the President to preempt threats or achieve United States policy objectives.
Values
In pursuit of our country's interests, we put Nation before Agency, Agency before unit, and all before self. What we do matters.
Our success depends on our ability to act with total discretion and an ability to protect sources and methods.
We provide objective, unbiased information and analysis.
Our mission requires complete personal integrity and personal courage, physical and intellectual.
We accomplish things others cannot, often at great risk. When the stakes are highest and the dangers greatest, we are there and there first.
We stand by one another and behind one another. Service, sacrifice, flexibility, teamwork, and quiet patriotism are our hallmarks.

Where does it say that an American agency can travel to other countries and kidnap their citizens for torture?! That is highly illegal, highly immoral, and not in our countries best interest.
