HD White and the Soviets

[michael at ecst.csuchico.edu]

I suspect that the key to White's status might be the word, "agent."  I
can imagine a high level government agent being sympathetic to a
particular state, or even a cause -- say Tibet.  The official might push
for policies that favor the supposed interests of the Tibetens.  He/she
might enjoy getting together with Richrd Gere or even the Dali Lama.

To be an ominous sounding "agent" would require a stronger association.
Just having records of contacts does not prove much to me.
