* Marlowe added the CIA is looking for Russians who are "disgusted" with the war in Ukraine.
The Central Intelligence Agency is looking for Russians who are "disgusted" with the Ukraine war to recruit them as spies, David Marlowe, the agency's deputy director of operations, said last week.
Marlowe told an audience at George Mason University's Hayden Center in Fairfax County, Virginia, that Putin was "at his best moment the day before he invaded [Ukraine]" because he had "all the power that he is ever going to have."
"He squandered every single bit of that," Marlowe said, before adding: "We're looking around the world for Russians who are as disgusted with [Putin's actions] as we are. Because we're open for business."

Traitors in other words
ReplyDeleteTraitors? Perhaps.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe it is the leaders that betrayed the nation.
I have the impression to do not trust them.
ReplyDeleteNot hard to find these days…
ReplyDeleteUS foreign spies are often citizens of the country they are spying on. In other words, technically traitors. So, what's the alternative? Also, there's a difference between "betraying" a country like Russia (considering its current agenda), communist China, N Korea, or Iran, and countries like Canada, France, or Japan.
ReplyDeleteTraitors? It depends.
ReplyDeleteWas Staffenberg a traitor for attempting to assassinate Hitler?
Leaders can be traitors. Take the Bavarian Corporal. He was given the Sudentenland by negotiations, but ended up going to war anyway. There is a book called "Just and Unjust Wars". Hitler engaged in an unjust war when he invade Czechoslovakia.
Did that make a traitor to Germany?
Is Putin a traitor to Russia?
Or Justin Trudeau of Canada who ran as a Canadian and admitted after the fact that he is in fact a globalist. Traitors traitors everywhere
Deleteso true...
DeleteJustin Castro you mean?
ReplyDeleteOne could get a hair follicle and test it for SNPs that are indicative of Spanish but not French heritage.
Careful what you do think twice many of them are spies as well
ReplyDeleteCareful? Does look scary doesn't it? For the Cold War period I would put my money n the Soviets being better at spying and funding more of it.
ReplyDeleteHere is the question. What good did it do them? 1989/1991 happened. Russia today has a GDP the size of Italy. That is with Italians being lazy(?) living "la vita dolce" at 55.
Elvis Presley worked for the feds as a special officer. But most of his work went down the toilet.
