The CIA's Greatest Hits

by Mark Zepezauer
Arthur Naiman
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
A revised and updated edition of the explosive book that blows the lid off the Central Intelligence Agency.
The CIA’s Greatest Hits details how the CIA:
   • hired top Nazi war criminals, shielded them from justice and learned—and used—their techniques
   • has been involved in assassinations, bombings, massacres, wars, death squads, drug trafficking, and rigged elections all over the world
   • tortures children as young as 13 and adults as old as 89, resulting in forced “confessions to all sorts of imaginary crimes (an innocent Kuwaiti was tortured for months to make him keep repeating his initial lies, and a supposed al-Qaeda leader was waterboarded 187 times in a single month without producing a speck of useful information)
   • orchestrates the media—which one CIA deputy director liked to call “the mighty Wurlitzer—and places its agents inside newspapers, magazines and book publishers
   • and much more
The CIA’s crimes continue unabated, and unpunished. The day before General David Petraeus took over as the twentieth CIA director, federal prosecutors announced that they were dropping 99 investigations into the deaths of people in CIA custody, leaving just two active cases they’re willing to pursue.
