If you get a chance, watch former C.I.A. Deputy Director Mike Morell's interview this week with Charlie Rose on PBS. Morell talks about the lack of American leadership and the Arab al Qaeda Spring. Morell has a new book out in which he tries to expel some myths about the C.I.A. and warn Americans about the terrorist threat. The book is entitled, "The Great War of Our Time: The CIA's Fight Against Terrorism From Al Qaeda to ISIS."
