"...courageously takes us inside the CIA's most shameful extralegal
operations, exposing an intelligence service gone rogue. He is a
sentinel of the public interest, and his book is a public service."
-- John Kiriakou, The Reluctant Spy: My Secret Life in the CIA's
War on Terror.
"Douglas Valentine writes books that rip the bloody veil off the
criminal enterprise known as the US government. When he does this,
he combines incredibly in-depth research, interviews and an
inviting style of prose that exposes the dark truth about the US
nation and its national security state. The CIA as Organized Crime
continues that tradition and is an important and crucial text" --
RON JACOBS, Counterpunch
"Valentine's two books on the FBN/DEA are a major achievement." --
Peter Dale Scott, The American Deep State
