Brief article by Alexander Mosesov, based on tel. interview of Ray, Jan. 29, 2015
What Ray shared were off-the-top-of-the-head remarks; his NSA alumni colleagues have since reassured, however, that he got it right, while keeping the message simple.

On Dec. 30, 2014, RT/Deutsch ran recorded remarks by Ray on NATO, the seeds of the crisis in Ukraine, and why the Russians will not back down.
The interview goes for 13 minutes, from a little after minute 1 up to min. 14; there is extensive dubbing into German, but much of the English can also be heard.

Whistleblowers should not be pedestalized as “heroes.” Placing them on a pedestal makes it too easy for potential whistleblowers to rationalize failing to act; they tell themselves, “Well, I’m not a hero,” and then do nothing. Whistleblowers, rather, are patriots, who honor the solemn oath they took “to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic.”
Those who do not read German can simply scroll down to the 7-minute interview filmed right after the award ceremony, with Bill Binney (2015); Coleen Rowley (2002); Ed Snowden (2013) appearing by livestream; Jesselyn Radack (2011); and Tom Drake (2011), in order of appearance.

Goebbels apprentice former CIA PR director William Harlow picks the empty seat next to Ray at Jeffrey Sterling trial, after testifying about how hard he (Harlow) had tried to stop James Risen from publishing the “Merlin” fiasco. Condoleezza Rice also struts her stuff. Creepy moments at the courthouse in Alexandria, VA

Tour d’Horizon by Ray with Scott Horton on Jan. 6, 2015, (40 minutes, starting at min. 2:00) Payback for Putin bailing Obama out on Syria in Sept. 2013, and preventing the wider war after which the neocons were lusting. Putin’s refusal to simply sit by after the Feb. 22, 2013 Nuland coup in Kiev; why Crimea and eastern Ukraine are strategically important to Russia; Putin’s openly stated primary concern (not a frivolous one) – i. e., the probability that U.S. missile defense system could lead Pentagon planners to believe, for the first time since the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty of 1972, that the U.S. finally will have a first-strike capability. It will be even more dangerous and disruptive of the U.S.-Russia “balance of terror” – the equilibrium existing since the ABM Treaty – for Russian strategic planners to see no prudent alternative to that of resorting to the hair-trigger policy of “launch on warning.” Other front-burner issues discussed.
