R. James Woolsey and Ion Mihai Pacepa

Ambassador Robert James Woolsey, former head of Central Intelligence Agency, is a lawyer and diplomat who has served in the U.S. Government on many different occasions. He has held Presidential appointments in two Republican and two Democratic administrations. He also has been a member of The National Commission on Terrorism, The Commission to Assess the Ballistic Missile Threat to the U.S., The President’s Commission on Federal Ethics Law Reform, The President’s Blue Ribbon Commission on Defense Management, and The President’s Commission on Strategic Forces.

Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest-ranking intelligence official ever to defect from the Soviet Bloc, served as acting chief of communist Romania's espionage service and top adviser to President Nicolae Ceausescu. Today, with assassination threats and million-dollar rewards still hanging over his head because of his defection, Pacepa lives in the U.S. under a CIA-protective identity and remains active as an uniquely insightful writer on current affairs. He is the author of a number of books, including Red Horizons: The True Story of Nicolae and Elena Ceausescus' Crimes, Lifestyle, and Corruption and Disinformation: Former Spy Chief Reveals Secret Strategies for Undermining Freedom, Attacking Religion, and Promoting Terrorism.
