I agree with you completely.
I'm not a fan of government agencies which turn on the citizens they're
meant to serve.

The purpose of the analogy was to convey what I consider to be a more likely
reason for our current problem with terrorists, which is that we've been
victimized not because the CIA is incompetent at its craft, but that it's
been under restraint.

With this opinion registered, I'm open to discussion on how to arrange
things so the agency is potent abroad, and toothless at home.  I have no
illusions about such an arrangement being easy to implement and maintain.
