Ray was a CIA analyst from 1963 to 1990. Ray’s duties included chairing National Intelligence Estimates and preparing the President’s Daily Brief. He received the Intelligence Commendation Medal at his retirement, he returned the medal in 2006 to protest the CIA’s involvement in torture. In January 2003, Ray co-created Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) to expose how intelligence was being falsified to “justify” war on Iraq.
They discuss the geopolitical situation in Ukraine and the Middle East; and Israel’s push towards a wider regional war — damn the consequences. This could result in nuclear annihilation of the world. His website is www.raymcgovern.com.
