Probably the most insane episode we've recorded thus far involving CIA double crosses, false pretenses for war in Iraq, ISA and Delta Force operations, black ops nestled within black ops. Strap in for this one. Scott Ritter was a leader in the United Nations weapons inspections teams to Iraq, which involved an incredibly dangerous game of cat and mouse as he found himself trapped between the governments of the United States and Iraq. UNSCOM ended up involving everyone from the CIA to JSOC to Israeli military intelligence, all of it secret and hidden from view at the time. Ritter thought he was doing the right thing, but found himself being retaliated against by his own government for the sin of doing the job to which he was assigned.
