the police would inform the kgb about the ones they had rounded up and the kgb would see who had potential potential to rise in the ranks of the criminal network, of the mafia. they would target individuals they would actually promote them in the criminal network by allowing them to conduct their crimes and be successful at it so they would rise in the ire around key. hierarchy. they would then go to the kgb and say, okay he's our man now, and they would go to this individual and simply say to them we know what you're doing we could arisk you at any time -- arrest you at any time, but, hey, just keep doing it. they would entrap foreigners, maybe employees of an embassy business people who might be in the soviet union, entrap them into a currency exchange situation and then report that back to the kgw, and the kgb would then have the tools they needed to recruit that individual with threat of blackmail to become an informer sleeper or whatever for the kgb. that's what you have to understand about putin's background. that's the skill, that's one of the skills that he learned. he only had one

a cia infiltration of the kgb. they said all the time that he was working for the kgb. that he was actually working for the cia. of course, he denies that. he talks about karl koecher and what a villain he was, what a hardhearted man he was. it is an interesting bit of film. we will see if we can get it to play. it is said, when they were walking across the bridge in berlin hana was wearing a white mink coat and a white mink hat for this exchange. and, that she looked like a movie star. which, i am sure, was the goal. here we go. [video clip] from the moment he was in the cia, questions were raised about his loyalty. at the kgb, people doubted the truth of the reports. it -- they began to wonder whether mr. koecher had changed sides. he was active -- asked to return to prague, smuggled across the border and taken to a safe house, when he met the man sent to investigate him. >> as a senior official of the kgb in counterintelligence maybe i shouldn't have said that. because he definitely felt nervous. when you deal with counterintelligence, you expect unpleasant things. 1

the visitors that got copies understood that it was an illicit book best hidden from the kgb minders at the fair in brussels. at the cia working with dutch intelligence was behind the publication which was printed by the distinguished house. the agency saw them as an ideal place to distribute the book because the unusually large number of soviet citizens, some 16,000 had obtained visas to visit the world fair which took place over six months between april and october, 1958 at a 500-acre site just northwest of central brussels. 42 nations including the u.s. and the soviet union and for the first time, the vatican participated. the agency assumed that the dutch publishing house, which specialized in the language books was about to get their rights the rights to the russian language version from this addition would be passed off as an early run. there was good reason for this belief. he himself also thought that they would get the rights from milan for the executive who agreed to print zhivago this was an early sale even though he knew the whole thing was fishy and almost certainly invo

i think putin is more kgb. there is a cult of toughness among males.to play to them with these various scenes of activity. you're supposed to be kind of cold hard hitting, the charles bronson is alive well "death wish" is alive and well in russian movies. it is what russian young men are growing up it's it be tough and society has been preparing -- putin has been preparing them for this more aggressive type of behavior. i would see that as a more important culture trend that is occurring in russia than this psychological tinkering with psychology. >> how does that sound, mr. dank more cultural than anything else? >> well first of all, the people tinkering with the psychology is the tingrers. the cultural stuff doesn't really address this particular person, which i assumed was the point of the pentagon report. that they would kind of address him. it's very easy to generalize about russian culture and talk about this and that. but this is a person who, i agree that he was a spy and a kgb person and there are people who have asberger's who are drawn to th

the kgb tells me that you have a use for a computer that can predict events in the year 2000. and nixon says yes, we have such a computer. and then could you tell me what this means then? there's a long pause at the other end. there is a left that says okay. and they say that i cannot read it. [laughter] and so the false assumptions that you have listed in your book are that engagement rings complete cooperation. i think the you and i probably agree upon that one. this is a general assumption especially in the broadview. that engagement leads to assumption. and so that is something that i think is interesting. the second assumption that you say is that china is on the road to democracy and to believe that that is not the case. the third assumption is that china is fragile, that it's not going to be militaristic. >> yes, if you put china under pressure they will collapse and etc. >> then there is the assumption that china wants to be like us. and that is when i started making the jokes that i talked about. i would've argued no al qaeda doesn't want the same thing. and so there

the kgb tells me that you have a new supercomputer that can predict events in the year 2000 and nicksonsays yes we have such a computer and then he says can you tell me what the name the bureau members will be then. and there's apposite the other end and then he says ha ha, your computer is not so great after all. and he said he can answer your question, but i cannot read it and he said why not and nickson says well, it is in chinese. [laughter] and so the fourth assumption this brings complete cooperation and i think that you and i certainly agree upon that. and this is a general assumption especially in the state department that engagement leads to cooperation and the other side actually manipulates the engagement and that is something that i think is interesting. the second assumption is that china is on the road to democracy and you believe that that is not the case and the third assumption is that china is fragile, that it's not going to be militaristic. >> a big pressure is that they will collapse and it will be a terrible thing. >> and then there is an assumption that they want t
