How Late DCI William Colby Saved the CIA, and What That Can Teach Us Today
The day after the Jan. 3 U.S. killing of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani marked the centennial of the birth of the late Director of Central Intelligence (DCI) William E. Colby. By disclosing some of the country’s darkest and dirtiest secrets in the wake of the presidential excesses of Watergate and the Vietnam War, it was Colby who saved the CIA he loved from its own destruction. In the process, he became possibly the most important national security whistleblower in modern American history. His willingness to tell truth to power and the challenges that this “soldier-priest” of a superpower’s clandestine service faced in overseeing previously unimagined institutional reforms offer important lessons at this momentous juncture in the national debate.
On the day Soleimani was killed, former U.S. Ambassador to Moscow Michael McFaul, a prominent critic of the current White House occupant, noted on Twitter: President Donald Trump “has spent three years telling us that our Intelligence Community (IC) can’t be trusted, does bad work, is part of the ‘deep state,’ etc. But today, he’s now all good with the IC’s work, which has helped to save American lives?”

His father's death in a helicopter crash in 1968 brought the young man a fortune running into many millions of dollars, though considerably less than the widely published estimate of $250m.
MujahideenWhile studying civil engineering at King Abdul Aziz University in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Bin Laden came into contact with teachers and students of the more conservative brand of Islam.
Through theological debate and study, he came to embrace fundamentalist Islam as a bulwark against what he saw as the decadence of the West.
The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in December 1979 changed Bin Laden's life forever. He took up the anti-communist cause with a will, moving to Afghanistan where, for a decade, he fought an ultimately victorious campaign with the mujahideen.
