Black Agenda Radio · Ray McGovern Analyzes U.S. Policy in the Middle East

Ray McGovern served as a CIA analyst for 27 years, from the administration of John F. Kennedy to that of George H. W. Bush. In January 2003, Ray co-founded Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) to expose how intelligence was being falsified to “justify” war on Iraq. We discuss an attack on a U.S. base in Jordan where three service members were killed. The Biden administration claims that “Iran backed militias” are responsible but there are many questions. Ray McGovern joins us from Raleigh, North Carolina to discuss.
