Out of curiosity I watched the first episode and then couldn't stop. The USA is the most spied upon country in the world. It's no wonder we now have 16 intelligence agencies with eyes, ears & boots everywhere at all times. Being a superpower insures you will wear a huge target on your back and naturally aquire many enemies, foreign & now especially domestic. This does not mean the US can be assumed to be the most evil country by default or the most good either. Size & status are major factors in how nations are judged. Every nation on earth uses spycraft, both ways. Undeniable fact. Humanity is the underlying reason for all confidence and/or distrust issues.

It is amazing to me the process for identifying even the slightest hunch and turning it into a globally impactful outcome in the constant struggle between opposing forces. I have tremendous respect for all these professionals who use each others specific expertise to solve difficult situations. I was surprised to learn that intelligence work is mostly done from an administrative aspect, then the confirmations, operations & physical missions are completed by specific groups of field operatives and/or military forces.

I am so glad these agencies and personnel are effective and passionate about their responsibility to defend & protect the country. We are thankful to them and the production by CNN for providing this excellent series.
