Treacy: For the Former Soviet Union it was not the CIA inplace spy
	network in the 1980's and 1990's.  George Bush seemed to be
	amazed that the recession did not end with victory in Desert
	Storm. The breakup of the Soviet Union was the signal that we
	were in for a major economic restructuring with the disappearence
	of the "EVIL EMPIRE."

	All of this suggests that agency self interest, stupidity, or
	cupidity caused a major failure in intelligence.
