Summary of Douglas London's The Recruiter
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The CIA has been trying to reinvent itself after the debacles of 9/11 and Iraq, but it has instead compromised its core mission, values, and culture. The first warning sign that the CIA was beginning to slide down a slippery slope might have been the perversion of the word, spy.
#2 The term spy has taken on a negative connotation in the United States today, as it is associated with the damage done by a series of notorious traitors such as Aldrich Ames, Robert Hanssen, Edward Lee Howard, Harold Nicholson, and Edward Snowden.
#3 The use of the word spy is not what this book is about, but it was the trigger for me to write it. I felt embarrassed by it, initially, thinking that I was just being an old curmudgeon. But after reflection, I realized that the CIA had become politicized, and in a way that compromised its integrity as a spy service.
#4 The CIA is an organization that must practice an unethical art in the most moral, just, and ethical manner. But in truth, the CIA had already brought much of the damage upon itself long before the forty-fifth president of the United States moved into the White House.
