It seems to me you contradict yourself. If we may legitimately question his motives, what do his "creds" matter? ( interesting play there on credentials/credibility )

I can scarcely read 10 words of his IMPERIAL HUBRIS book. It's just so loaded with ideology. "How can this guy be working for the CIA ?" is all I can think of. Well, I've seen indications on this forum and elsewhere that there is an answer to that question.

I apologize for my obscurity/brevity.

What I mean is this.

Of course his motives for his writings may come into question. Hell, everybody who writes a book/column/post has an 'agenda' or 'motive' for doing so...thats a given.

In "his creds" I was referring to his credentials. He was head of a unit tasked with keeping track of OBL. This position by its very nature placed information in his grasp that far exceeds that available to the average bear.

As to his credibility - like I said, everybody has an agenda.

My basic comments is perhaps better stated as this:

Just because you don't like the guy, don't discount his entire message.
