Sleeper Cell Sleuthing

Anyone else wonder about this? What’s with the Russian sleeper cell activity in the U.S.? And what’s with the revelation that it was a Russian Foreign Intelligence Service double agent who ultimately blew the whistle on the Russian spy ring in the U.S.?

These are priorities when the vagaries of the global economy,  potential for nuclear proliferation and radical, jihadist Islam are our common concerns, worries and enemies, respectively?

Ironically, the Cold War could conjure up some nostalgia these post-9/11 days. Recall that America and its co-super power adversary, the Soviet Union, had something critical in common back in the day. Neither of us wanted to die. That’s a deal-maker. Ultimately we could work with each other. Living in the here and now was a mutual priority–not dying for a martyr’s reward in the hereafter.
