I learned later, just as a footnote, that the World Assembly of Youth was a CIA front.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I was about, I'd say, 18 or 19 years old, I wanted to be a part of the CIA just because they know those intimate secrets... So I was just always into knowing. I like to know things.
The men and women of the CIA are a national treasure.
The CIA is made up of boys whose families sent them to Princeton but wouldn't let them into the family brokerage business.
I was with the CIA for only three years. I worked in the Directorate of Operations, which is now called the National Clandestine Service. It's the part of the organization where the spies live. I didn't have much experience beyond the training.
You know, as director of the CIA, I got an awful lot of intelligence about all the horrible things that could go on across the world.
As an old man who remembers the intellectual exhilaration and the pleasure of having done good work that characterized the CIA when it was young, I wonder if it might not be better to speak and think in terms of restoring its culture.
The bottom line is that the CIA knew before the war, during and war, and after the war where most of these chemicals were and most of these biological agents.
Let's remember, the CIA's job is to go out and create wars.
Young people never do have a clue. There are some young people that do, but they've always been the exception. They always all grow up at some point. The problem is that they're all being indoctrinated by stupid leftists.
Throughout my career, I had the great fortune to experience firsthand as well as to witness what it means to be a CIA officer.
