@pg1958

It’s pretty much a standard operating procedure for the CIA. There’s a fairly long list of countries that have been subjected to this strategy.

@GottaLaff My alarm bells are screaming about this article. It’s WAY more biased than I’ve ever seen from Reuters before.

@roque Reuters as I recall, is under ownership that raises eyebrows. I have to go back and look.

But they still do some good reporting
