You know, I kind of thought the same thing when I read that part. I don't think the KGB would admit the Americans were better at anything either. I did find it somewhat humorous however, that Kalugin says even the KGB director didnt trust the Palestinians. I think about that and wonder why so many today trust Yassir Arafat.

Through the course of reading this book (which I have yet to finish), I have noticed a few other things that Kalugin has said that don't sound quite right. I have a feeling certain parts of his book are nothing but disinformation. However, I felt this piece on Yassir Arafat was worth posting.

The part about not trusting YassarRat is true. As one KGB defector said "He's so full of cunning, deceit, guile and treachery."
