Ah, good and thoughtful reply. I stopped watching at the beginning of Season 6, however. Season 5 would make the sanest human on the planet want to off him/herself, it was so depressing. I couldn't stand anymore.
Up until the end of Season 4, however, the series was brilliant. Have all the DVDs.
It was alluded to in the season 4 finale when Saul shows up at Carrie's sister's home. The "hold your fire" order accounts for a great deal of hostilities that develop between Carrie and Saul (laying the groundwork for season 5 in Berlin). The CIA apparently thought that having Haqqani alive, unaware Dar Adal is black ops, was worth the risk of killing untold numbers of Pakistanis, Afghanis, and others. The decision made no sense to Carrie and probably was meant to offend viewers and get viewers to question the morals or lack of them of our intelligence agencies. As a creative decision, it worked and was worth it.
