From an AP story Jan 4
President Clinton commended the nation's fallen spies and their colleagues of the Central Intelligence Agency on Tuesday, saying espionage helped win the Cold War and now is needed to guard against new evils. Addressing hundreds of CIA employees on his first visit to the top-secret agency, Clinton said ``the new world remains dangerous'' as threats of terrorism, ethnic conflict and militant nationalism challenge the intelligence community. About 400 workers crowded the marble lobby of the agency's headquarters; others lined hallways, watching the president's address on TV monitors. The employees applauded several times as Clinton paid tribute to their work at a time when some critics are questioning the agency's role in the post-Cold War era. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To find out more about the anon service, send mail to help@anon.penet.fi.
