Inman cut the flow of information to the Mossad after the raid on the Iraqi nuclear facility at Osirak. This started a running fued that caused pro-Israel journalists such as William Safire to attack and scuttle Inman when he was nominated for Secretary of Defense.
It was Inman's actions that some apologists say caused intelligence analyst Jonathan Pollard to sell out his country and betray all of us. I certainly do not support that view. Pollard must pay for what he has done and has no one to blame but himself and to a lesser extent Israeli intelligence.

A bizare editorial:
Director of Irvine-based builder Fluor-Daniel and a former CIA and National Security Agency official under President Ronald Reagan. Inman worked at the highest levels of American intelligence during an era when it displayed a stunning lack of it. Inman's achievements include helping: fail to predict the peaceful collapse of the Soviet Union; prolong violent, useless civil wars in Central America; and give arms to terrorists in exchange for hostages. In typical shadow-government/revolving-door fashion, Inman arrived at Fluor the same year that former CIA official Bill Nelson-who met with CIA contra-coke figure Ronald Lister at Fluor's Irvine offices-left the multinational corporation. MITIGATING FACTOR: He let a congressional oversight committee know when CIA chief Bill Casey was lying by tugging on his socks under the table. Orange County's Scariest People!
