I'm not sure what you're expecting here. All of this was available in open source over the past few years. The CIA couldn't change things, and I'm sure they know a lot more than open sources provide.

Iran and Syria have contributed to creating the ISIS problem. If we concede anything on that basis, we are chumps.
I can understand removing one of the charter members of the Axis of Evil as a negotiating ploy to gain a piece of paper for Obama's legacy. Removing Hezbollah is outrageous and pure foolishness. We may as well toss in a Humanitarian of the year award for Bashar al Assad.
And the United States, Europe, and Saudi Arabia hasn't contributed to the ISIS problem? Everyone's hands are dirty.
I agree, removing Hezbollah is completely absurd.
That's like starving your dog until he's skin and bones, and then getting a humanitarian award for feeding him again.
That made me laugh.
