CIA

The CIA, better known as the Greater CIA or CIA II, was formed on Friday, March 7, 2008, at 11:13 p.m. by Seamus O'Malley III. Seamus, who liked to refer to himself as a traveling minstrel, was 54 years old. He was twice married, twice divorced. He was a NOC in CIA I and had been a NOC all his life. Only two people in the world knew of Seamus' secret underworld identity--Seamus and an entity known only as "control." No one knew control. Some believed he was a mad genius. Others thought he was a computer. Still others believed that control was God Himself. Seamus--like Martin Luther, I suppose--formed CIA II because of great discontent with the status quo. CIA I was full of brilliant people, but in the end they were mere followers. If the president said, "torture," they would torture. If the president said, "Don't torture," they would not torture. Sheep, really. Despite their brilliance, in the end they were mere sheep. Seamus was not terribly disturbed by the torture debate. In a way, he was actually in favor of torture. Something inside him welled up, when he thought of the horrors humans committed on other humans. Punishment was deserved or so he felt. But in the end Seamus knew torture was wrong because he himself, Seamus O'Malley III, could not inflict torture on another human being, no matter how misguided that human might be. No, Seamus could not pull the lever or push the button that sent electric shocks into the genitals of an al Qaeda operative. Nor could he waterboard, no matter how vile the victim. Seamus was more concerned with 9/11. chiefbroom8 04:43, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
