IWP Academic Dean and Professor of History Dr. Marek Jan Chodakiewicz discusses candidly some pertinent and forthright details of Poland's latest counterintelligence crisis: the allegations that six undercover Polish military intelligence officers posted their pictures from a secret mission to Afghanistan on Poland's equivalent of Facebook.com.  Dr. Chodakiewicz brings to the debate surrounding this latest crisis a description of the palimpsest of Poland's intelligence services, the personalities that staff and control them, and the controversy surrounding their decommunization.
