Former CIA Officer Marc Polymeropoulos is among the victims of Anomalous Health Incidents (AHI) hoping for vindication after reports of a classified mission. cbsn.ws/4biwcIB

U.S. military tested device that may be tied to Havana Syndrome on rats, sheep, confidential sources say
For years, the U.S. government has doubted the stories of those suffering from AHI, commonly called Havana Syndrome. Now, victims hope that reports of a newly discovered weapon will finally vindicate them.

First, it would be national security malpractice to sit back and do nothing. Cyber at a minimum. Ultimately, I think it all depends on which faction within the administration wins out – essentially it’s about the Vance vs Rubio wings. The isolationists vs the neocons. And who has Trump’s ear last…

Ordinarily, it takes great leadership to manage. Yet I worry that this admin doesn’t hav the competence, leadership, experience, personnel to handle all. There is also no consistency in our approach -and what we believe in. Neocon/isolationist/transactional/imperialist/mercantalist….what r we?
