>I doubt anything will happen

The last president who seemingly took issue with these powers was conveniently assassinated. His successor (and the successor's allies) wasted no time in appeasing those powers by beginning lots of wars that killed and destroyed the lives of many people. I too doubt anything will happen.

At the risk of starting a Chomsky flame war and for anyone curious about what happened in those wars, and why nothing will happen: read "Manufacturing Consent".

Yeah I don't believe these "the CIA killed JFK" conspiracy theories. Y'all have had decades and decades to prove it.
