Author Carmine Savastano returns to the MWN podcast with S.T. Patrick to discuss CIA foreign agents QJWIN (Jose Mankel), WIROGUE-1 (David Tzitzichvili), and the evolution of American political assassination programs.
The success and failure of various intricate plans developed by the Central Intelligence Agency relied on the oversight of its administrators, the professionalism of its employees, and the control of its assets. In such a high pressure and secretive environment, obsession and imagination can be valuable tools and deadly hindrances if one strays too far afield from the illumination provided by verifiable facts. Unfortunately, secret agendas can allow exception to be made, the bending of policies, and even the most unthinkable has been given voice for its utility with little consideration to blowback. A frequent underlying lesson regarding many intelligence operations has ever been doing unto others before they do unto you...

Despite the clandestine operations, suppression of facts, and verifiable destruction of documents, a substantial body of evidence remains...

Read MoreAn enduring question lingering in the shadows of modern history is the true name of one of the Central Intelligence Agency's most concealed assets. QJWIN is the cryptonym assigned to this person active prior to President Kennedy's death. The first sign of him was among a large trove of cryptonyms buried in a document over a hundred pages in no particular order. I was startled to find he was the very first entry. QJWIN's name is Jose Marie Andre Mankel and multiple primary documents confirm this including his contract, contract extension, biography file, and in Select Committee file listing various cryptonyms. Mankel additionally utilized pseudonyms and the false identities of a New York businessperson called John J. Berger and Jacques Berger a German salesperson...
