Casey Gane-McCalla joins Our Interesting Times to discuss his book Inside the CIA's Secret War in Jamaica. We talk about the efforts of the United States government to destabilize the Michael Manley government in 1976 and how the CIA's covert operations on the island nation led to an explosion of cocaine trafficking, arms smuggling, and terrorism. We also discuss how the events in Jamaica are linked to the Kennedy assassinations, Watergate and Iran-Contra.
Casey is a writer, musician, journalist, and author.
