And all those guys were purged when the Iranians found a security breach in the american intelligence networks, got the informantsā names and sent the list to Russia and China.
One thing about us East and Southeast Asians is that we said what we're expected to said in a certain event in such a scale that once you heard one, you have heard it all.
Funeral, for example - "The dead is a good person" = I don't personally know the dead. "The dead is a good friend" = I personally know and deal with the dead. "The dead is a good kid" = The dead is my child/children, or I'm his/her teacher. You get the idea.
So, yeah, I won't read too much into an official statement on a dead person. As my parents said "Don't listen to what people said, but watch what they do" .
There is a statue of a mighty woman located within the harbor of one of the cities of the West. At the time of its construction, it was described as āThe New Colossusā, and a sonnet of the same name was inscribed at its base.
Its message was long forgotten as the ruling nobilities of the New World reforge its message to placate the populace, where indentured servitudes were substitute for liberty.
The statue is a figure of a mighty woman holding a torch, whose flame was imprisoned lightning, and her name, 'Mother of Exiles'.
From her beacon hand once glowed a worldwide welcome, whose silent lips once cried 'Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free!'
Yet, an ocean away from where the statue stood, flames of imprisoned lightning burned not in a single torch, but across an entire nation.
A nation that for decades has provided hope and solution for the poor, the tired, the huddled masses of the world, looking for a way to break from the tyranny of the New World.
To all those yearning to breathe free, the Peopleās Republic of China is seen as a Mother of Exiles.
For all the fault of the actual Tiger, it's an okay design, unlike the literal garbage that is Porsche Tiger.

Artworks portraying a world where Soviet won the cold war. It has such obvious dystopian spin on the whole thing, but I don't think it has the intended effect on me.
Well...pretty much the entire pharmaceutical market in US is exactly that - artificially expensive.
