When Ray McGovern and Larry Johnson use the same word to describe the House Intelligence Committee's report about "Recognizing Iran as a Strategic Threat," it might be an indication that this report stretches credulity.
Ray McGovern, a former CIA analyst now working with Church of the Servant in Washington, D.C. and co-founder of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity, has written an enlightening essay entitled "Just When You Thought You'd Seen Everything: Hoekstra's Hoax".
Larry C. Johnson, a former CIA officer and former officer in the State Department's Office of Counterterrorism, sounds a similar note in an essay entitled "Republican Chutzpah on Iran."
This administration's drumbeat for war with Iran keeps beating louder.

Actually, that's the Church of the Savior, Bruce. Ray works with their publishing arm, Tell the Word. I met him several years back when C.o.S. was hosting an Every Church a Peace Church conference. Although he only worked in analyzing intelligence and not any of the CIA's seedier "black ops" activities, Ray somewhat looks on his past the way I do on having been a soldier before I became a Christian and pacifist. . . his work now is an attempt to make up for some of what his previous work was used for by others. Good guy.
