Instructions: At the outset, please choose one question to answer and take a few sentences to craft a coherent, thoughtful response.

If they are, do you think there are particular types of covert operations that should be legally off-limits in a democratic state?Question 3: Why do you think the recent covert operation in Syria proved such a failure? Do you think this operation should have been undertaken in the first place? Why or Why not? What are the implications (if any) of recent events in Syria for covert operations in general?
