[00:00] so he goes into the kitchen to get a glass of water the meantime his little daughter looked to be four years old is playing on the floor so I let myself in and I get on my knees and I say to her in Arabic SMI what is your name so he comes back in and he's standing there listening to this what about the one where you dressed up as a college kid yeah that was so much fun oh my God that was was

[00:30] the one that I enjoyed the most like I say I was younger back then my hair had no gray in it I was thin and uh we got word that the intelligence service station chief of an enemy country was coming for his new assignment and uh how do you get to him right I mean he's not going to be at the cocktail

[01:01] party sipping a martini so uh I had a mentor at the CIA by the name of gust avatus gust is famous Charlie Wilson's War I mean books have been written about gust he was like a father figure to me he was very controversial inside and outside the agency killed a lot of Russians a lot medals

[01:31] promotions couldn't get along with anybody everybody hated gust and gust hated everybody but he was a sweetheart deep down you just had to know how to deal with him like one time we were working in the 17 November task force together and I mentioned offhandedly that 17 November's second victim the chief of the helenic National Police his name was malos that malos was a torturer during the Hun and Gus grabbed me by by the lapels and slammed me up against the

[02:02] wall and he goes myos was my friend and I said you better get your [ __ ] hands off of me old man or I'm going to make you sorry and he finally let me go and I go what the [ __ ] wrong with you I said malos was a torturer I'm sorry if he was your friend I'm sorry he got shot in the head but he was a torturer and keep your hands to yourself next time and afterwards he's like I really respect you for the way you reacted so anyway we were

[02:33] friends so I called gust and I said gust I got a little pickle here I said this station Chief is coming and we don't have a way to get to him and uh how do you think I should play this because I I want to cold pitch him even if it just means frightening him so that he goes underground so Gus said let me tell you something I did back in the day in the ' 50s so I wish I could take credit for this but this was not my original idea

[03:05] but it worked like a charm so on Gus's suggestion I got a book bag and filled it with books so it was heavy and bulky I found the guy's address which was not hard and I found his car which had a diplomatic license plate on it so I went up to the car and with my book bag I broke off the side view mirror and then I picked up the mirror I went to the next door neighbor's

[03:35] house a Greek lady and I said is that your your car over there I just broke the mirror off no no she says it belongs to the guy next door I don't know who he is so I did that for cover reasons so I go next door knock on the door the guy answers and I start speaking to him in Greek and I knew he didn't speak Greek and and so he says in English he says ' no no I don't speak Greek and I said oh

[04:05] I'm sorry I said in English uh I said you speak English I I'm sorry I I was walking down the street and I I've got my books here and and I I accidentally hit your mirror and I broke it off and the lady next door told me that it was your car and I wanted to come and say I was sorry excuse me sorry and and I want to pay for it and he's like ah damn it now I have to take it into the shop I said I'm so sorry it's it's totally my

[04:35] fault I was just being clumsy and I'm standing there at the door he's inside I'm outside but in in Arab culture an Arab can never turn down a request for Hospitality so I said to him may I trouble you for a glass of water and he's like wait here he says so he goes into the kitchen to get a glass of water in the meantime his little daughter looked to be four years old is playing on the

[05:07] floor so I let myself in and I get on my knees and I say to her in Arabic sure SMI shm what is your name and she says oh my name is whatever and I said uh how old are you I'm four and I said what are you playing in Arabic this is all in Arabic so he comes back in and he's standing there listening to this which of course I did on purpose and he says to me what exactly do you

[05:40] want so I stood up and I said listen I'm not going to waste your time you're a professional I'm a professional this is my card with my real name I'm from the CIA in Washington your guy is going down he's going to die you can die with him or you can be on on the side of the good guys and you have until 10:00 tomorrow morning to make that decision and I walked out and as I walked out I said I'll be sitting next to my phone that's my direct

[06:12] line so I went back everybody's like how'd it go I said I don't know we'll see so we're all sitting there looking at our watches the next morning right at 10:00 the phone rings and he says what do you propose I said meet me in the lobby of the Hilton hotel in 2 hours and come alone and come unarmed so we had six Security Guys we

[06:45] were at CIA people were at every table around there's a little cafe in the lobby and I wanted it to be in as public a place as possible so that if you know all hell were to break loose I might have a a little bit of safety safety in numbers safety in the you know public environment cops walking around security guards so the guy

[07:16] uh made a demand I made a counter offer and finally I said to him look you're you're not in a position of strength to negotiate here I'm I'm telling you what it is that you're going to do I'm not here to offer you know riches we can get to that conversation at some point in the future but right

[07:46] now you have to prove your Bona fites to me and this is what you're going to do at the end of the day he did literally everything that we wanted him to do we did make him Rich he survived he's a successful businessman now thanks to your taxpayer dollars and we were able to shut down any threat that that Embassy would have posed and it would have posed a real

[08:17] threat to Americans wow yeah that was a good one that's a ballsy pitch man he was scared shitless and like I say he was a professional so he knew that every one of these white guys that's sitting at every table around him is armed to the teeth and is working with me yeah it's like you said before when when the guy in the motorcycle when you put the gun in his face and he said I'm not afraid of your a gun it's the same concept you walk into his [ __ ] house
