A Spy for France & England

Hello folks!

Two days ago I came across a documentary on the BBC news channel, and it involved a man spying on the Al Qaeda, so i decided to watch it. At first, I thought it would be quite boring, and unimpressive; like a poorly thought out plan. However, as I started getting sucked into the notion of being a spy for the secret services I realized that this man put his life on the line to gather information. I could not possibly imagine what traumatic experiences he endured during his job.

He would deliver explosives and guns to different countries by driving there. The car would always break down by a police stand, and the police would help him get his car running again because they were completely aware of what the car contained. These Al Qaeda men were so intelligent that they ripped off the leather and put the guns behind the leather interior of the car, and put the leather back, so the guns were concealed.

When he did not have any jobs for the Al Qaeda, he would go to the secret services and tell them what occurred. After a year or two, he was sent to Pakistan to meet with some other Al Qaeda members. They all travelled to Afghanistan after a week; to the training camp. The man explained to the interviewer that he was taught how to make bombs and poisonous gases using household items. He also stated that they trained each member of the group to resist giving out details while being captive in prison.

I was in complete shock when i watched all this, and I cannot believe this man endured all this just for the secret services. He wasn't even trained on how to spy, yet he managed to gather so much information. All this spying occurred before 9/11, and the President of the United States knew that America would have been attacked because the FBI and CIA were aware of the Al Qaeda for years. It really makes citizens wonder, what happened?why weren't precautions taken?.....

Well, I believe we should wait for the Presidency elections to end, and hopefully America will pick a President that is willing to defend their country without having to kill millions of innocent individuals!

Yes, we are members of the so called "super power" countries.
We always think that we are better than other countries because we have advance technology and money. A lot of the third-world countries depend on us. We sometime forget that, although these countries are member of the third-world, they are lead by people with brilliant minds and this applies to terrorists as well.It is presumptous for us to think that we can do it all. We all have an Achilles heel or Waterloo.

I would not like to be a spy, it seems very dangerous.

That would be a scary job, I would never want to spy on Al Quida.
