the above is a FAR right miasma of the worst of neocon scammers. dunno if it's still in existence......I'm in a hurry here, but here's what it had to say about this guy:
At the same time, Godson served as one of the main intermediaries between the private Nicaraguan contra support network and the National Security Council. 4] During the Cold War, he was closely connected with neoconservative organizations such as the Coalition for the Democratic Majority and the League for Industrial Democracy. Godson also served as the longtime director of the International Labor program at Georgetown University, where NSIC's Consortium for the Study of Intelligence is housed.[5] Godson’s father and brother, Joseph and Dean, served as key advocates of neoconservative ideas and organizations in the United Kingdom during the Cold War.[6]
he even wrote a (dishonest at the core) book about intelligence practice in the real world, ironically titled
Dirty Tricks or Trump Cards: US Covert Action & Counterintelligence
the key point in the review of this mendacious lunatic's justification for his dark side:
Godson warns of the dangers of disinformation finding its way back into the US public sphere. Again, this is interesting given the authors closeness to neo-conservative circles that have been at best courting this danger over Iraq, and at worst running covert actions against the American people

(1,129 posts)It appeared as if the panel members were chosen as a way to make a statement.....
You had Godson representing the historical, Soviet/cold war perspective....
Dr. Rumer(?)- representing firsthand experience with soviet union & Russian federation regime tactics & motivation related to intelligence operations ....
And the 3rd dude .... whose name escapes me...
A cyber intelligence expert well versed in research based data specific to the 2016 election operation...
who, IMHO, Was the actual purpose for the hearing...
His role was not only to inform
but to set the stage for a much needed
paradigm shift
on the part of the DoD, IC, all 3 branches & the public at large, etc
Godson & Rumor were there to be the "sugar"
that would facilitate the swallowing of the real info/message (provided by the third guy)...
