Then they don't have to explain anything - they just have to point to the increased security that was necessary.
ReplyDeleteMake the story too big to fail and it will be accepted as true: 100% by some, 75% by other, 50% by some... but only very few will know (in the way Winston Smith knew that one time) that it was not and is not true.
Imagine, more pigs at the trough!
ReplyDeleteAnd this development surprises whom?
