CIA's Homepage for Kids

What's this?

Not a joke, but rather, a kinder, gentler introduction to the black arts.

I guess they're taking seriously President Bush's recent order to increase the number of clandestine agents by 50% in the next few years.

Hey, the whole espionage community's gotten into the act: there's NRO Jr., a website for children put up by the National Reconnaissance Office, which used to be so secret no one in governement would admit it existed.

Then there's the NSA/CSS Kids and Youth Page, a production of the National Security Agency, formerly known as "No Such Agency."

And don't forget FBI Kids, for those who like their skullduggery domestic.

    Those CIA/FBI sites have been up for some time now. Since Clinton, I believe.
