As just another confabulating songbird seeking cushy asylum in the US, I'd bet. >From what I've read so far of Mitrokhin's "revelations," he's a de facto disinformation agent for the West, painting the CIA in terms tailor-made for the CIA's own PR "spin." He claims to be ex-KGB, but in the spy biz, he might actually have been a double agent in place, a CIA mole in the Kremlin, just biding his time before he could return "home." Or, just as possibly, he's not old KGB but new "Russian Mafia," peddling boogeyman stories calculated to make the US think the Russkis were/are cleverer than we think ... Cui bono? There's been a stampede of ex-Soviet officers lately whose credibility is nil --as often the case with "defectors"-- and no surprise, they all seem to line up behind has-been Cold Warriors, Fuehrer-wannabees like Singlaub: the Bush Octopus crowd.
