Hes won the career intelligence medal and speaks eight languages. He spent much of his 21 years with the cia and the middle east and one of his notable assignments of which there are plenty was attempting to assassinate Saddam Hussein. He is currently National Security analyst for cnn and one of the foremost authorities on the middle east.
