I have removed the following text from the article which can be found in the middle of section of IX of the HPSCI report:
"In 1996, the U.S. House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence issued a congressional report estimating that: "Hundreds of employees on a daily basis are directed to break extremely serious laws in countries around the world in the face of frequently sophisticated efforts by foreign governments to catch them. A safe estimate is that several hundred times every day (easily 100,000 times a year) DO officers engage in highly illegal activities (according to foreign law) that not only risk political embarrassment to the US but also endanger the freedom if not lives of the participating foreign nationals and, more than occasionally, of the clandestine officer himself."
In the same document, the committee wrote, "Considering these facts and recent history, which has shown that the [Director of the Central Intelligence Agency], whether he wants to or not, is held accountable for overseeing the [Clandestine Service], the DCI must work closely with the Director of the CS and hold him fully and directly responsible to him."
The HPSCI report is very, very long; however, none of this reflects any of the major findings or recommendations of the report. I am not sure why this information was cherry picked, but it also does not even reflect any of the main findings or recommendations within section IX. I have replaced that material with material from a secondary sources that mentions the main result of BOTH 1996 studies, and touches on the political nature of why there were two. -Location (talk) 23:57, 29 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
