The Leonard Lopate Show: Counterterror Confessions

Counterterror Confessions

Veteran counterterrorism expert Fred Burton talks about how America’s anti-terror efforts have evolved since the 1980s, when the idea of defending the U.S. from terrorism was still fairly new. Burton’s new book is Ghost: Confessions of a Counterterrorism Agent.
