Former Intelligence Agents Weigh In On George Tenet’s Book

Michael F. Scheuer, the founding head of the CIA’s bin Laden unit, is the author of ‘Imperial Hubris’ and ‘Through Our Enemies’ Eyes’” and Ray McGovern, a twenty service year CIA analyst, weigh in on George Tenet’s recently released book.

Neither is the least bit impressed, to say the least. Tenet’s book (which I have not read nor intend to read, as I refuse to buy books from crooks), according to McGovern and Scheuer is more about Tenet attempting to rehabilitate his reputation than of his prominent role in pimping the Iraq adventure. Their analyses, I think, are worth a read.

And there’s this “Open Letter to George Tenet” written “by a group of former CIA intelligence officers” which is also worth a read.
