An extended conversation, recorded 22/May/2010, on the far reaching and still developing crisis in the Middle East centering around the U.S. government's involvement in Israel, Iran and Palestine.
Ray McGovern, Michael Caddell
How important would you find an intelligence debriefing from a man who routinely met with two presidents? Meet Ray McGovern, who worked with nine former CIA Directors, prepared information for seven U.S. presidents and delivered the daily presidential briefs to two at the White House. Radio Free Kansas is honored to present a special exclusive appearance with the former Senior CIA Analyst Ray McGovern to discuss the current on-going White House shake-up in intelligence gathering. From Mr. McGovern's latest (unreleased as of this RFK showtime): "The Senate Intelligence Committeeâs investigation of how 23 year-old Nigerian Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab soiled his underpants with a makeshift bomb over Detroit last Christmas has hung out so much dirty linen on the crowded clothes line of the intelligence community that it offered a golden opportunity to get rid of Director of National Intelligence, Dennis Blair." Mr. McGovern writes from the important Consortium News web site, edited and published by Robert Parry, and his articles go viral across the internet. We are honored to have him on for an extended conversation today.
