In my latest episode of Reason2Resist, I speak with former CIA officer Ray McGovern.
Ray was a CIA analyst from 1963 to 1990. In the 1980s, he chaired National Intelligence Estimates and participated in preparing the Daily Briefs for the U.S. President.
Ray received the Intelligence Commendation Medal at his retirement from the CIA, but he returned the medal in 2006 to protest the CIA’s involvement in torture.
Ray and I discussed Israel’s war on the indigenous peoples of West Asia. He argues that Iran’s October 1 missile attacks on Israel may ‘have given pause to the Israelis’.
At the same time, Ray believes that Benjamin Netanyahu has Joe Biden ‘wrapped around his little fingers’, and that US Secretary of State Antony Blinken acts like ‘Netanyahu’s lawyer.’
Ray and I also discussed the persecution of Julian Assange, US involvement in the 2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines, the limits of US power, and the unrelenting assault upon free speech in the West.
You can watch and listen to our discussion here:
What a brilliant interview!
You gave Ray the opportunity to reveal so many facts that are never covered by main stream media.
The german government giving Biden the highest award for literally ruining the German and EU’s industrial capacity and economy for the US destruction of NordStream is so bizarre and tragic.
The non reaction of the german people to this and indeed, the lack of reaction to Israel’s genocide by Canadians might be explained by a special phrase:
“Wirtshaftlich die Muschi ausgepeitscht”
