Will U.S. officials now face the wrath of Khan?
To bad this outlet skews hard in the bias sauce. Gotta see if it's backed up by someone more neutral.
Edit: All reports from credible outlets rely on this particular report, so make what you will of it.

  Spoiler: this outlet has a mild left-leaning bias.

And its content is irrelevant anyway.
Full marks for a triply contradictory stance.
