An insider's account of why the CIA is illprepared to protect America, and why it must be replaced without delay*Once upon a time, the CIA took the risks necessary to protect America. If you fall, went its mantra, fall forward. In Beyond Repair, one of the agency's most respected former operatives mounts a scathing critique of the preparedness of today's CIAand, specifically, the Directorate of Operations at its coreto defend America against the dizzying dangers of the twentyfirst century. In a compelling blend of analysis and fascinating truelife stories, Charles S. Faddis argues that the CIA has devolved into a lowrisk or, often, norisk bureaucracy of careerists whose mantra might be summed up thus: Don't fall.Every senior officer I know in the CIA carries personal liability insurance, writes Faddis, because of the fear of being sued for actions taken in the line of duty. And, he notes, no operatives who commanded CIA teams in Afghanistan have been promoted to key positions. Why? Because they operate within a system that is no longer built to encourage and reward the risktaking and creativity they excelled at.Faddis discusses the birth of the CIA, how the agency works from the inside out, why things have gone awryand how to go about building a new entity that will maintain the midnight watch, so Americans can sleep well at night.
