“The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals held in a 3-0 vote on Friday that the CIA must reveal whether it has any ‘involvement’ or ‘interest’ in the U.S. drone program, saying its refrain that the agency cannot acknowledge the program’s existence is undermined by officials’ public statements. Those public statements came from President Barack Obama, newly-minted CIA director John Brennan and former CIA Director Leon Panetta, all of whom have confirmed that some agency of the U.S. government uses drone aircraft to drop bombs.”
