Whats with this? NBC: Jordanian double-agent killed CIA officers

It is called stupidity and fieldcraft at its worst. We use trained and skilled agent handlers for these meetings.
I understand the station chief went down too. That is unbelievable.

This was the most dumbass part -


According to Western officials, bin Zeid, along with the seven CIA officers, were killed when al-Balawi, the formerly trusted informant turned double-agent, detonated his suicide belt at Camp Chapman.

Some of the officers had flown in from Kabul for what was thought to be an important meeting.
