Are you ok? "Its OK that someone kills someone else because some time in the past bad things happened" We are aware that the CIA is not an angel but at the same time is not right to sponsor death penalties because someone else did it in the past.

My response was flippant, as any loss of a life is horrible, but the CIA has plenty of blood on its hands, and nefarious intent.

Not sure what this has to do particular example of the kind of dirty, hush-hush shit that goes down in international espionage... This is hardly the first time Russia tried shut someone up, and of course it's not like the CIA doesn't do the same; we're not ignorant. It's business as usual.

I was responding to the person who said the days of CIA coups and murder are "a thing of the past". I provided information proving that it isn't.
