Belfer Center Senior Fellow James R. Clapper offers a candid and compelling account of the intelligence community’s successes—and failures—in facing some of the greatest threats to America.

While the United States and North Korea had never signed a peace treaty, I didn’t believe the North Korean leader had any intention of breaking the 1953 cease-fire. Any attack would more likely be the result of some small incident spiraling out of control. If the North Korean military saw some provocation as the start of an invasion, it would respond accordingly.

Speaking in Davos this January, President Donald Trump promised that, "when it comes to terrorism, we will do whatever is necessary to protect our nation." It's a commitment we share with the President. In fact, developing and implementing lawful and effective counterterrorism strategies and policies used to be our jobs in the intelligence community, at the White House and at the National Counterterrorism Center, respectively. That's precisely why we are opposed to Trump's travel ban, which heads to the Supreme Court this week for oral arguments.

Former National Intelligence Director James Clapper, a Belfer Center Senior Fellow, was interviewed by a number of media outlets during the summer 2017 about President Trump and his leadership.
