Charles Freeman on USA

The problem with Charles Freeman's views is that he doesn't like the USA or the government he was supposed to work for. Remember that Freeman was supposed to be vetting intelligence in the service of the USA. It may be hard to keep that in mind. As pointed out in  this article in the Washington Post, Freeman said in a 2006 speech to the United States Information Agency Alumni Association, that both American political parties are "xenophobic, Islamophobic, Arabophobic, and anti-immigrant." The United States, he opined, had become "the planet's most despised nation, with its most hateful policies."
