Undo plan
1) Conduct reviews with IC IG/PCIE participation to avoid politicized kill lists.
2) Preserve ongoing operations needed for force protection and hostage recovery during review.
3) Brief Gang of Eight on material changes.
4) Publish unclassified summary of review process (not sources/methods).
5) Verify: notification records; continuation findings documented.
