Ex-CIA officer John Sipher ran covert ops for 28 years, and now he says what intelligence agencies refuse to admit publicly.
He explains:
◼ Why he believes China, not Russia, is the threat that keeps the CIA awake at night
◼ How CIA officers are trained to think like robbers while FBI agents are trained to think like cops
◼ What makes someone turn against their own country and agree to spy for a foreign power
◼ How CIA recruits spies explained by a former officer who actually ran those operations
◼ Why he believes Russia escalated its relationship with al-Qaeda in the years before 9/11
◼ What happened when a CIA officer finally sat his own children down and told them he had been a spy
◼ How to understand Putin through the KGB mindset he never left behind, even as a head of state
