- Former CIA Clandestine Service Officer, writer, and peace activist Amaryllis Fox discusses her new memoir, "A Life Undercover: Coming of Age in the CIA."
Born to an English actress and American economist, Fox's childhood was marked by global travel and exposure to political revolutions and terrorism. These early experiences, including the death of her mentor Daniel Pearl, profoundly influenced her. At just twenty-one, Fox joined the CIA, undergoing rigorous training in firearms, torture resistance, and evasion tactics.
Deployed under non-official cover, Fox infiltrated terrorist networks in remote regions of the Middle East and Asia, working to prevent terrorism and arms trafficking. Now an advocate for peaceful engagement, her memoir provides a rare glimpse into the CIA's covert operations and offers insights on promoting global peace through humane strategies. Join us for a compelling discussion with Amaryllis Fox.

Just found Amaryllis. I have great respect for her for putting herself in harm's way for national security purposes. Thank you.
Amaryllis Fox is my new favorite person. Second interview I've heard, and she is so impressive!
impressively dumb.
I love Amaryllis Fox! Amazing intelligence and empathetic ability.
To suggest that I love Amaryllis Fox would likely be an understatement. What I find interesting is that, in spite of our different backgrounds and experiences, we have similar thoughts about our country and about foreign relations. I am not certain whether or not we have similar styles or whether we simply view life in similar manners, but we both like the idea of listening to others and not wanting to bomb the crap out of those who are not members of our own tribe. How refreshing.
For 20 years I have been used by the CIA through a project that they founded in 1953. MKUltra, a mind control experiment. Recently MIT has discovered a area of study associated with this branch of fringe science where they place thoughts in peoples heads. Since the late 90's they have used me as their lab rat, relay point, thus making me a songwriter. I have no clue how many are actually mine as there are hundreds. They have done this to artificially induce the biblical Revelations, undermining religion itself. Sadly I understand the need for it. And hate the Church as much as I hate the CIA. For the manipulation goes into my childhood.
The interviewer, Mina Kim, was doing fine until something triggered her. Clearly it shows through her body language the struggle she faces with alienating those she disregards, the "Alt Right" and proves that she's no different than the ones she's shaming in her example. For one, a wise peacemaker will not shame one particular people group over the other. Whether we call out the violent factions in the ALT LEFT or ALT RIGHT, we alienate and scorn both groups which will never bring peace. Listen and watch her reactions: 29:05 / 59:29. "So wbat is the solution, I mean, are we suppose to suddenly respect the violent faction of the ALT RIGHT? The comment is padded with emotions, but no genuine desire for Mina Kim to take an Alt Right activist out to lunch for a conversation with the aim to find common interests. She clearly is part of the problem, showing her distain for her "Adversaries". Maybe Amaryllis hasn't figured this one out yet, but I find it amusing that she doesn't talk of the negative influence Main Stream Media has had on this country and the anger many Americans share for being SILENCED by the very rich and powerful LEFT WING MEDIA OUTLETS including U-Tiube. A True peacemaker will dig deep and look at how people are influenced by what is said in all forms of media. Most of it is twisted and rarely will you know the TRUTH. Amaryllis is old enough to remember when President Bush was preaching "Weapons of Mass Destruction" and the LEFIST Media went on a rampage to try to find these warehouses of weapons of mass destruction, then they said there were none. Well, read Amaryllis's book to know the truth about that particular propaganda stream. She likes the fact that a woman is the agency director now. Well, it was that AWFUL President Trump that appointed Gina Haspel, but notice again how the LEFIST Media hated so much on the President for bringing in this inhumane person who may as well not even be a human being! The LEFT media FEARD her to be such a villainous person and projected their so called 'fear' onto the American people fueling more friction. I agree with Amaryllis on her comment of the most PATRIOTIC thing we can do. Another most PATRIOTIC thing we can do is demand the reformation of our LEFT WING Media Outlets. They are fully responsible for LYING to the American People and making it LOOK LIKE WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A CIVIL WAR. They are the instigators of lies, hate, violating our U.S. Constitution, Failing to state ALL the facts, constantly spinning information, rarely speaking the TRUTH, taking sides with filthy and evil rich political leaders all for the "ALMIGHTY DOLLAR". With a media so powerful it can control the minds of naive ignorant Americans, how will we ever be able to ensure our children's future of PEACE? We must confront the Media lies and manipulations that are unravelling the threads of our liberties.
