Show Notes
This week we trace four decades of American intelligence failure in Iran, from the 1953CIA coup against Mossadegh through the 1979 embassy takeover that wiped out our human network overnight. Jonathan Hackett walks us through Stuxnet, the JCPOA, the 2019rollup of our entire asset network, and why we're now dependent on Israeli intelligence to tell us what's happening underground.
