WSLR sponsors Book Talk on the CIA this Friday, May 30th
Failure of Intelligence: The Decline and Fall of the CIA: A Book Talk with Melvin Goodman
Friday, May 30th at 7pm
Sanier Auditorium, New College of Florida
FREE EVENT!
This is the first book on the CIA by a CIA insider who was with the directorate of intelligence analysis. It examines and explains three key intelligence failures: the failure to predict the decline of the Soviet Union, the absence of strategic intelligence on the 9/11 attacks, and finally the falsification of intelligence to permit the Bush administration to go to war against Iraq . The book explores the need for reform and accountability, and suggests specific steps to be taken. This is must reading for anyone interested in national security and American foreign policy.
