Freud would certainly agree, especially after I revealed to him that I’ve mysteriously never heard my mother utter such an oath.

Although it was just four months after 9/11, Cipel did not undergo an extensive background check. Cipel had served as only a low-ranking officer in the Israeli navy and had no counterterrorism expertise. Despite his thin qualifications, he received a $110,000 salary.
