Really? Larry "Whitey tape" Johnson?

Not an impressive lineup, for sure.

ETA (from the Wikipedia article in the link above):

Founding member of the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity
Johnson is a founding member of the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity.[34] In September 2015, Johnson and 27 other members of VIPS steering group wrote a letter to the President challenging a recently published book, that claimed to rebut the report of the United States Senate Intelligence Committee on the Central Intelligence Agency's use of torture.

OTOH, VIPS was right on Iraqi WMD, so broken clocks and all that. OTOOH, it claimed an Israeli attack on Iran was "imminent" in 2010.
