When they say he was a Double Agent, does that mean he was working for the KGB?
Odds are, since he may have been a mule, I’d say for Pakistan or Saudia Arabia.
It means another intelligence service thought Zero was their guy, but he was actually working for our guys. I suspect he really was a Triple Agent, meaning the bad guys knew Zero was pretending to work for our guys, but was actually working for them.
Well, if you consider who was recruiting at the time he was in college, who paid his way thru college, and the fact that he visited Pakistan when it was illegal to travel there, my guess would actually be Iran. In spite of their assets being frozen in Western countries, they were sitting on billions in gold the Shah had tucked away as official backing for their currency as well as for personal use of the royal family.
The people who laundered most of that gold by making deals with South Africa to make it seem as though it was part of the South African production were Saudis who were on the outs with the Saudi royal family. Or, at least so I've heard. Now the Saudis, if you recall, were openly matching what we gave the folks in Afghanistan dollar for dollar and then some. In reality, that doesn't hold a candle to the money they were funneling to various Mooze Lame groups within the USSR as well as to promising young Muslims in every Western country who might someday be of use to them. The problem they had, though, was that a great deal of the money they sent to Afghanistan ended up in Iranian hands.
So, the Saudis not on good terms with the Saudi royal family but on very good terms with the folks fighting in Afghanistan, laundered the gold the Iranians couldn't sell in quantity elsewhere and pocketed a tidy profit for doing so. They then paid a portion of that into various Mooze Lame jihadist groups. In addition, the cash the Saudis were sending to Afghanistan also ended up "taxed" to support the jihadist groups closely aligned with Iran in spite of the fact that the Saudis were trying their best to have the regime in Iran overthrown.
Maybe I'm nuts, but I'd put my money on Barry either working for Iran or for the Saudis and the Saudis are so upset with Barry that there would have been plenty of dirt already made public were he one of theirs.
JMHO, and you know how it is, what the hell do I know other than hearsay.
More likely the ISI (Pakistan.) It would explain his college trip.
