and also why did he suddenly want his name (or alias) to be released when he must've known his fraud will be found out then.

It would be nice to know if this guy was used as a source for the uranium story by other members of the media..

This guy needs to be found and who paid him to do this. Sounds like a Chris LeHane project.

We're all getting our guesses in, so here's mine.

This is a "Greg Packer" type. His goal in life is to see his name in the paper. He got a real good one in this time, but it's probably his last until he establishes some credibility under a new identity — which he may already have. For all we know, in addition to his "CIA consultant" identity, he may be well-known to a bunch of business reporters as a former AT&T executive.

There are a lot of crackpot Special Forces Heroes out there; that story is not all that rare. Some guy who in real life was a mess-kit repairman gets the girls by telling of his Rambo exploits, and the next thing he knows he's 40 and he's still doing it. This guy's a Secret Agent, too. Even better.

I bet we find out this guy had no particular political ax to grind, he's no Marxist conspirator, he's just some Walter Mitty with a boring job and a Secret Agent complex that got away from him one too many times.

If I win, I donate the proceeds to the "Rocket Michael Moore into Space" fund.
