Ex-CIA agent and US policy critic, Philip Agee has died at the age of 72. He did shake things up.

What a shame. May his memory and his courage live on.

This is too bad.

Read some of Agee's articles:

Terrorism and Civil Society as Instruments of US Policy in Cuba

The Descent of the US; the Rise of Latin America

How United States Intervention Against Venezuela Works

A shameful injustice: Cuba's 50-year defiance of US attempts to isolate it is an inspiration to Latin America's people

Books written by Philip Agee:

Inside the Company: CIA Diary 1975

Dirty Work: The CIA in Western Europe 1978

On the Run 1987

Reforms of the FBI and the CIA, even removal of the President from office, cannot remove the problem. American capitalism, based as it is on exploitation of the poor, with its fundamental motivation in personal greed, simply cannot survive without force - without a secret police force.
