Unreliable Isis Intel

Fifty intelligence analysts say their reports on ISIS and Al Qaeda are being watered down by senior officials. According to an exclusive story in the Daily Beast, the analysts complain that higher-ups are deleting assessments they consider too pessimistic, or pushing them back down the chain of command. They charge that the administration wants the intelligence to fit their political narrative: that the U.S. is making progress against ISIS. And now the Pentagon’s inspector general is investigating.
