“I love the country. I believe in the country. I believe in everything that this country stands for.” Nada Prouty’s missions as an FBI agent and CIA officer read like a history of America’s fight against terrorism. "Nothing prepares you to meet a terrorist, a real life terrorist.” But her fellow CIA officers were shocked when she herself was accused of being a terrorist spy. One of the New York Papers calls you Jihad Jane. “That’s the Jane that went to Iraq and put her life on the line.”

 

“Do you know how much you got?” “No.” “I mean, does 17 billion sound about right?” He is the richest man in Russia and on the verge of buying the worst team in the NBA. But as you’ll see, he won’t be like any other owner of a big time American sports franchise. He’s an adrenalin junkie아드레날린 중독자. He has a few unusual toys. And he owes some of his fame and fortune to party girl. “Frankly speaking, I like women.”

 

Mike Rutzen is one of just the few people in the world who would do this with a great white shark. And that’s just for starters. “Oh, my god.” “That’s what you’re talking about.” With blood in the water and great white swirling around, he gets in with them. No cage. No protection. How does he survive it? And what could possibly be his motivation? “How do you feel?” “Feel good.” We went in the water with him to find out. I’m Steve Croft. I’m Lesley Star. I’m Bob Simon. I’m Motley Safer. I’m Anderson Cooper. I’m Scott Pele. Those stories and Andy Loony tonight on 60 minutes.

 

Nada Prouty's identity was once a closely held national secret. She was an FBI agent, then a CIA officer with top security clearances who penetrated terrorist organizations overseas. Her fellow CIA officers say she risked her life often, volunteering for dangerous missions. And because she's originally from Lebanon, she speaks native Arabic, a rare skill for an American intelligence officer.

 

But Nada Prouty's daring career was destroyed. In those years after 911 when rooting out terrorists at home was an obsession at the Justice Department, federal prosecutors launched investigations and even Nada Prouty was accused of supporting terrorism. Was a traitor exposed? Or did America lose a patriot? Tonight, former undercover CIA officer Nada Prouty steps out of the shadows to tell her story for the first time. “I love the country. I believe in the country. I believe in everything that this country stands for.” “This is dangerous work?” “Yes. But I embraced the mission. The mission became my family. The mission became my life. And I would have given anything to protect the mission."
