468 ”Deep Throat” [371]<br />

McCord himself later said that Nixon tried "to get political control over<br />

the CIA" 958 and certainly that would not be to McCord' s liking—nor to<br />

those in the CIA such as the Mossad' s ally, CIA Counterintelligence chief<br />

James Angleton. In fact—and this is very important—McCord was a close<br />

friend of Angleton, 959 and in his long-standing capacity as a CIA security<br />

official, McCord worked directly with Angleton. What's more, as a Biblequoting<br />

Christian, McCord shared Angleton's devotion to Israel.<br />

Thus, not only does the evidence suggest that the Watergate operation<br />

against Nixon was set in motion at least in part because Nixon was (like<br />

JFK before him) a threat to Israel, but that Watergate's origins can be traced<br />

back directly to Angleton's office at the CIA.<br />

In addition, the fact that we also find a veteran Mossad asset, CIA<br />

contract agent Frank Sturgis, and his old CIA partner E. Howard Hunt,<br />

back in the loop in the bungled burglary is also significant indeed.<br />

As we shall now see, it was Angleton who orchestrated—through an<br />

agent inside the White House—the constant leaks to the Washington Post<br />

that led to the nationwide media frenzy remembered today as "Watergate."<br />

ENTER 'DEEP THROAT'<br />

The White House source who provided young Washington Post<br />

reporters Robert Woodward and Carl Bernstein the rope they needed to<br />

hang Richard Nixon for the Watergate cover-up was dubbed "Deep Throat."<br />

For years there has been speculation as to the real identity of "Deep<br />

Throat" and one of the candidates whose name has often been mentioned—<br />

although he denies it—is General Alexander Haig who served as White<br />

House chief of staff at the time of Nixon's demise.<br />

Among those who point to Haig as "Deep Throat" are the<br />

aforementioned pro-Israel writers, John Loftus and Aarons. They speculate<br />

that by October of 1973 Haig (himself an ardent defender of Israel) became<br />

embittered by President Nixon's anti-Jewish outbursts and even angrier that<br />

Nixon had nearly let Israel be victimized by a surprise Arab attack and<br />

"took it with both hands" 960 and became "Deep Throat" for the purpose of<br />

doing in Nixon and forcing him out of office.<br />

This is an interesting theory, if only because it points to the fact that<br />

there are pro-Israel sources who suggest that the undoing of Richard Nixon<br />

was the work of an ardent Zionist highly placed in the White House: in this<br />

case, Alexander Haig.<br />

However, there is much stronger evidence that suggests that we should<br />

lay the wreath of honor at the tomb of James Angleton. If Angleton wasn't<br />

"Deep Throat" per se, he was certainly the CIA handler for "Deep<br />

Throat"—and thus was ultimately responsible for the destruction of Richard<br />

M. Nixon. So let's take a look at the evidence.<br />

We turn to the work of investigative journalist Deborah Davis whose<br />
