from 1960 to 1968, including postings to Quito, Montevideo, and Mexico City.


Leaving the CIA

Agee stated that his Roman Catholic social conscience had made him increasingly uncomfortable with his work by the late 1960s leading to his disillusionment with the CIA and its support for

governments across Latin America. In his book ''Inside the Company'', Agee condemned the 1968 Tlatelolco massacre in Mexico City and wrote that this was the immediate event precipitating his leaving the agency. Agee wrote that the CIA was "very pleased with his work" and had offered him "another promotion", and that his handler "was startled" when Agee told him about his plans to resign.''Inside The Company: CIA Diary'', p. 640 John Barron wrote in his book ''The KGB Today'' (1983) that Agee's resignation was forced "for a variety of reasons, including his irresponsible drinking, continuous and vulgar propositioning of embassy wives, and inability to manage his finances". Agee said these claims were ''

of information." According to Kalugin, the KGB was too suspicious to accept his offer.Andrew p. 230, referencing p. 191-192 Andrew states: "The KGB files noted by Mitrokhin describe Agee as an agent of the Cuban DGI and give details of his collaboration with the KGB, but do not formally list him as a KGB or DGI agent. vol. 6, ch. 14, parts 1,2,3; vol. 6, app. 1, part 22." Kalugin states that: Agee wrote in his later work ''On the Run'' that he had no intention of working for the KGB or Cuban intelligence. He was merely following his conscience in revealing the CIA's subversion and sabotage of democratically elected governments and genuine movements for social justice.Agee, Philip (June 1987). On the Run. L. Stuart. While Agee was writing ''Inside the Company'', the KGB kept in contact with him through Edgar Anatolyevich Cheporov, a London correspondent of the Novosti News Agency.Andrew, p. 231 Agee was accused of receiving up to US$1 million in payments from the Cuban intelligence service. He denied the accusations, which were first made by a high-ranking Cuban intelligence officer and 'defector' in a 1992 '' Los Angeles Times'' report. A later ''Los Angeles Times'' article claimed that Agee posed as a CIA Inspector General staff member in order to target a member of the CIA's Mexico City station on behalf of Cuban intelligence. According to this story, Agee was identified during a meeting by a CIA case officer. According to files from KGB defector
Vasili Mitrokhin Vasili Nikitich Mitrokhin (russian: link=no, Васи́лий Ники́тич Митро́хин; March 3, 1922 – January 23, 2004) was a major and senior archivist for the Soviet Union's foreign intelligence service, the First Chief Dir ...

and DGI contributed to Agee's text. The files claim that Agee removed all references to CIA penetration of Latin American Communist parties from his typescript before publication at the request of Service A. In 1978 Agee began the publication of the '' Covert Action Information Bulletin ''. Mitrokhin's files claim that the bulletin was founded on the KGB's initiative and the group running it was "put together" by First Chief Directorate counterintelligence and that Agee was the only member of the group who was aware of KGB or DGI involvement. According to Mitrokhin's files, KGB headquarters assembled a team to keep the Bulletin supplied with material specifically designed to compromise the CIA. A document entitled "Director of Central Intelligence: Perspectives for Intelligence, 1976-1981", was supplied to Agee by the KGB. Agee highlighted in his commentary Director of Central Intelligence

's complaint that the ''Covert Action Information Bulletin'' was among the most serious problems facing the CIA. Also from Mitrokhin's files: In Dirty Work 2: The CIA in Africa, Agee purportedly met with Oleg Maksimovich Nechiporenko and A. N. Istkov of the KGB and they gave him a list of CIA officers working in Africa. The files also claim that Agee decided not to identify himself as an author out of fear he would lose his residence permit in Germany. To the end of his life, Philip Agee consistently and categorically denied ever having worked for any intelligence service after leaving the CIA. He maintained that his motives were purely altruistic. In support of this he adduces the relentless persecution he endured from the CIA, as it and the U.S. State department revoked his passport and succeeded in having him deported from several Western European countries, one after the other, until he finally found refuge in Cuba.

, said the book was "as complete an account of spy work as is likely to be published anywhere"Andrew, p. 231 referencing p. 111-112, 120-121. and it is "an authentic account of how an ordinary American or British 'case officer' operates ... All of it ... is presented with deadly accuracy." The book was delayed for six months before being published in the United States; it became an immediate best seller. ''Inside the Company'' identified 250 alleged CIA officers and agents. The list of officers and agents, all personally known to Agee, appears in an appendix to the book. While written as a diary, the book actually reconstructs events based on Agee's memory and his subsequent research. Agee describes his first overseas assignment in 1960 to Ecuador, where his primary mission had the aim of forcing a diplomatic break between Ecuador and Cuba. He writes that the technique he used included bribery, intimidation, bugging, and forgery. Agee spent four years in Ecuador penetrating Ecuadorian politics. He states that his actions subverted and destroyed the political fabric of Ecuador. Agee helped bug the United Arab Republic code-room in Montevideo, Uruguay, with two contact microphones placed on the ceiling of the room below. On December 12, 1965, Agee visited senior Uruguayan military and police officers at a Montevideo police headquarters. He realized that the screaming he heard from a nearby cell was the torturing of a Uruguayan, whose name he had given to the police as someone to watch. The Uruguayan senior officers simply turned up a radio report of a soccer game to drown out the screams. Agee also ran CIA operations within the 1968 Mexico City Olympic Games and he witnessed the events of the Tlatelolco massacre. Agee identified President

During this time he said that the CIA spied on him. The cover of the book featured an image of the bugged typewriter given to Agee by a CIA agent as part of their surveillance and attempts to stop publication of the book. In 1982, the United States Congress passed the Intelligence Identities Protection Act (IIPA), legislation that seemed directly aimed at Agee's works. The law later figured in the 2003

Expulsion

Agee gained attention from the United Kingdom media after the publication of ''Inside the Company''. He revealed the identities of dozens of CIA agents in the CIA London station. After numerous requests from the American government as well as an

report that blamed Agee's work for the execution of two MI6 agents in Poland, a request was put in to deport Agee from the UK. Agee fought this and was supported by MPs and journalists. The Labour MP Stan Newens promoted a parliamentary bill, gaining the support of more than 50 of his colleagues, which called for the CIA station in London to be expelled. The activity in support of Agee did not prevent his eventual deportation from the UK on June 3, 1977, when he traveled to the Netherlands.Andrew, p. 232-233. Agee was also eventually expelled from the Netherlands, France, West Germany and Italy. On January 12, 1975, Agee testified before the second Bertrand Russell Tribunal in

. Exxon was "letting the CIA assist in employment decisions, and my guess is that those name checks ... are continuing to this day". Agee stated that the CIA customarily performed this service for subsidiaries of large U.S. corporations throughout Latin America. An Exxon spokesman denied Agee's accusations. In 1978 Agee and a small group of his supporters began publishing the '' Covert Action Information Bulletin'', which promoted "a worldwide campaign to destabilize the CIA through exposure of its operations and personnel". Mitrokhin states that the bulletin had help from both the

and the Cuban DGI. The January 1979 issue of Agee's Bulletin published the infamous FM 30-31B, which was claimed by the United States House Intelligence Committee to be a hoax produced by the Soviet intelligence services. In 1978 and 1979, Agee published the two volumes of ''Dirty Work: The CIA in Western Europe'' and ''Dirty Work: The CIA in Africa'' which contained information on 2,000 CIA personnel. Agee told Swiss journalist : "The CIA is plainly on the wrong side, that is, the

side. I approve KGB activities, communist activities in general. Between the overdone activities that the CIA initiates and the more modest activities of the KGB, there is absolutely no comparison." Agee's US passport was revoked by the US government in 1979. The State Department offered him an administrative hearing to challenge the passport revocation, but Agee instead sued in federal court. The case reached the Supreme Court, which ruled against Agee in 1981. In 1980

In the 1980s NameBase founder Daniel Brandt had taught Agee how to use computers and computer databases for his research. Agee lived with his wife principally in Hamburg, Germany and Havana, Cuba, founding the Cubalinda.com travel website in the 1990s. U.S. President George H. W.
