Today's guest is Hamody Jasim, a veteran of The Iraqi Army and a former US Intelligence Asset. Having been imprisoned in Saddam's Iraq at age 12, Hamody was no stranger to violence when he became one of the new Iraqi Army's first soldiers. After becoming the youngest sergeant major in the army, Hamody was entrusted with the safety of American soldiers at The Ministry Of Defence, where he foiled several Al Qaeda plots. His story is incredible, and he's here to share it.

Hamody is online at http://theterroristwhisperer.com, and @the_terrorist_whisperer. Check out his movie here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Terrorist-Whisperer-David-Petraeus/dp/B07Y3TQCJ3
