very much overlooked, and I think very disturbing last week.
He was giving, he had given a speech and an Israeli reporter asked him a question about the American-Israeli war against Iran.
And he corrected her.
And he said, it's the American war against Iran.
We are America's ally.
And I thought, oh, buddy, that's not what you were saying two weeks ago.
Now we stand alone doing your dirty work.
But that's what it's come down to.
The CIA actively seeks to hire people who have sociopathic tendencies, not sociopaths.
Sociopaths have no conscience.
They don't feel guilt or remorse.
They blow right through the polygraph because they don't react to anything.
People who have sociopathic tendencies do have a conscience.
They do feel guilt or remorse, but they're willing to break the law or to work in legal, moral, and ethical gray areas
if they believe it's the right thing to do.
So I mentioned earlier that on multiple occasions, I broke into people's houses or businesses and planted microphones or listening devices.
I was very happy to do that because I believed we were the good guys.
And this was to protect America.
Right.
We've got to disrupt that next attack.
