Looks pretty batshit at a glance. Will give it a peruse. Also what's the story with the image?

>>2556
Scanned over a bit of it, reads like ARE Emily. Don't think I have the patience right now but will give it another go when I'm not so knackered.

It's actually the letter the CIA agent in Moscow gave to the russian spy he was trying to get to defect. I imagine, the BBC says it contained instructions for payment and ended with "your friends".

It's what the Russian media claim is a letter which the poor US kid caught in the middle of a Syria related international relations cunt-off was handing out.

Some problems with the story:
1) $1 million a year?
2) Written in English?
3) Ludicrous snapshots of wig and map 'spy kit' shown in Russian media and FSB guys trying to keep a straight face for the cameras and failing.

It's a ridiculous story seemingly engineered for anyone with their eyes open to spot what's really going on, yet the majority of the planet will probably believe he was CIA...sit down with the popcorn and see how this story develops.

phonedupnshutup seems like a version of Are Emily who never go over reading the scary Tony Collins book 'Open Verdict'.

The whole thing is bullshit. It's a false-flag operation, intended to embarrass the US and weaken the status of American diplomats overseas. The Russians didn't even bother to do their research and get the tradecraft right. The amateurishness of this purported 'CIA agent' is farcical.

It's just the latest salvo in the long-running diplomatic squabble over the Magnitsky affair, which is legitimately /boo/:

I have to admit, the wigs and sunglasses look a bit ridiculous. I'd like to think the CIA have a few better tricks than that.

>>2561

Maybe they've been taking tips from Mossad?

I'm sure the russians are well aware of how fake it all seems, you think they're stupid?

More than likely it's just a public message to america.

>>2563

>public message to america.

This. Except properly capitalised.

>>2564
Apologies.

>>2565

Just this once I didn't report you, lad.

If the translation is accurate, this must be what is meant by Russian written by a non-native, as it says "To get back with us" rather than "get back to us".

>>2567
>"To get back with us" rather than "get back to us".
Nowt wrong with either.

Looks like Ryan Fogle really is (was) CIA - note email address from alumni association matching Stratfor database - http://cryptome.org/2013/05/fogle/ryan-christopher-fogle.htm

But as a commenter states at that link, something is not right with the reporting of this. Russia trying to make CIA look comically inept with a phony letter?
