The USSR may be gone but the espionage game goes on. There's spies everywhere! Who knows... you could be one! Or you! Or you!

No matter how you look at it, you can't be sure, so when in doubt... dispose of the subject :p

Post by: Flaser on January 31, 2005, 01:48:18 pm: The usual, bland and laid back looking people are the best candidates to be spies - however let's clear up the issue.

Do you speak of a spy inflitrating a foreign nation and recruiting agents or the traitor who steals whatever the higherups demasn for good money.

Read Viktor Suvorov's book Aquarium on the issue: it will reveal that there's nothing to the whole drama and romaticizm of this business that the press/media or the blockbusters try to make it.

Now the only thing we're missing is a squad of secret police. Or do they already exist and they're just so secret that we don't know about them...?
Title: The Cold War is far from over if you're undercover
Post by: Zarax on January 31, 2005, 03:22:33 pm: Tom Clancy is a freakin' prophet, he pretty much predicted most of the stuff that happened around the world in his book.
9/11 was somewhat predicted in his "Debt of Honor" (whatever the title in english is, i'm translating), and Iraq2 a few books later (wrong premises but...)

Post by: Corsair on January 31, 2005, 03:26:29 pm: Well at least The Bear and the Dragon hasn't happened yet. That one probably wouldn't be too pretty if it actually happened.

Hmmm... Zarax and Rictor are trying to derail the topic... are they trying to divert our attention from something else? :D

Heh, sort of akin to my idea...to help with the National Debt, the Bush administration could print -$100 bills. These would have a picture of Bush on them, and his eyes would continually swing back and forth...

hey guy you had like a grammar mistake there there's no aksu64 just AKS-74U/aKSU-74 so you must be a spy because i know that and I'm a moron so you're obviously just trying to doublecross us.
