WASHINGTON — President Obama will pay a rare visit to CIA headquarters as the United States weighs sending more forces to Iraq to fight the Islamic State group.
Obama is meeting with top national security advisers, who will give him an update on the U.S.-led campaign in Syria and Iraq as well as rocky diplomatic efforts to resolve Syria's civil war. The meeting comes the week before Obama travels to Saudi Arabia for a summit with Persian Gulf leaders focused largely on the threat from IS.
This isn't the first time Obama has taken a field trip to meet with national security officials who routinely come to the White House. He has also visited the State Department and the Pentagon for similar sessions in recent months.

That is interesting SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL that POTUS Obama will visit the CIA as U.S. weighs next steps against Islamic State group. I wonder if this is part of a disinformation campaign on our part since announcing that he will visit the CIA seems strange.

Hmmmm, My Spidey Senses are Tingling, A little too much Drama here! President come and go at the CIA and CIA Folks visit the president every day with their brief. This is for show and I have a sneaking suspicion but I am not allowed to talk about my Suspicions without prior approval of Big Daddy.
