Woodward’s Book on Casey

Perhaps Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.) isn’t the only one doing some “borrowing” these days. I strongly suspect that journalist Bob Woodward (in his new book “VEIL: The Secret Wars of the CIA, 1981-1987,” which states that the late CIA director William J. Casey on his sickbed admitted that he knew about the diversion of profits from arms sales to Iran to the Nicaraguan contras ) has taken a hint from Clifford Irving, he of the Howard Hughes infamy.
