I've watched NCIS work before. For the most part they are no different than your local police detectives. I find it hard to believe that anyone at that level would make people "disappear". If the government wanted to do that, I'm sure they could do it. At the same time, I don't believe that kind of crap goes on - if so, there would be a lot more people missing.

That said, I'm still not going to roll with anyone from Al Qaeda.

What empire building? We are pulling out of Iraq, and Afghanistan holds no interest to anyone. I think the concept of "empire building" went out with WWII.
