  1. A very interesting comparison here between Agee and Perkins. It makes me wonder how Bill Blum would fit into all of this. Didn’t he work with Agee?

  2. I think the contrast should be further extended to the other “Eichmans” namely the Wilsons and the pathetic attempts by the left to make it a major issue of Bush Administration hypocracy and illegality.

    All it did IMO was elevate Joe Wilson and his wife to a level of status that is undeserved and especially the role the CIA has played right here in the U.S wrt drug running in Los Angeles.

    The law that the Bush Administration suppositely violated was enacted in order to prevent another Phillip Agee from exposing the illegal activities of the CIA.  Is that anything for the left to be rallying behind?

    Mark if you write another article along this vein please consider the Wilsons in your constrast.

  3. Jack, I share your view about the Left and the Wilson affair. I always wondered why the left did not celebrate that breach of the CIA. I guess that it all boils down to partisan politics. When 500,000 Iraqi kids died because of the Clinton administration’s policies it was OK’ed by the Left.

  4. I’ve read ‘Confessions’ and ‘On the Run’, and this review is accurate and succinct. Phil Agee has an article in Venezuelanalysis.com on the Nature of CIA Intervention in Venezuela worth checking out. Both authors ( and Mark Hand) deserve three cheers!!!
