Yeah, instead of blog posts Hersh should write spy thrillers in tje tradition of the early Tom Clancy works. I would even pay for those, I like the setting and the narrative Hersh oresented in this blog, and the writing, are compelling and good. For a fictional book, not for journalism.

Clancy is far and away the most famous and notable writer of this kind of stuff though, and the name that would have come to me first too if I wanted to make a similar point.

He had a lock on the genre like nobody else before or since.

Are you saying you doubt that the US did this? Seriously? Do you have an alternative theory?
