WASHINGTON — Ten Russian intelligence officers have been arrested for allegedly serving as illegal agents of the Russian government in the United States, the Justice Department announced Monday.

I'm expecting the first....

1. False Flag allegations; and/or

2. It's a prelude to all out war with Iran; and/or

3. The Israelis did it.


.....accusations in 5,4,3,2..........

I think it goes to show that all of our "allies" may not be as friendly as many people are led to believe.

I'd like some more information, but considering the subject I can't say how much will become available.

And this surprises anyone?

Russia is the kind of ally you find in prison. They only have your back insofar as it meets their needs.

uhh you think we don't have agent in ever friendly country working for us ?

if they are doing it so are we.

Its just a pity they were caught

Someone needs to keep an eye on a country that has invaded 2 countries in the past decade

Wow,
Since I started the same thread 1 min after you I guess I'll just put my comment here : S&F

I hope we get more details about this soon. Maybe a book and movie deal. I thought the Cold War was over. I wonder how long it will be before our spies are arrested in Russia. I wonder how long they were operating in the U.S. and what "secrets" they have found out.

Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, N. Korea, and now Russia

Here comes WWIII

Next we'll find out that Obama is a KGB plant, since we know he was a CIA operative.

Then we'll align ourselves with Russia to invade Iran and end the last few people that know anything about the real history of humanity.

Good times.

I will add to this thread too
Most people think espionage died with the Cold War, but it did not. It is alive and well today. It never died. We just dont hear too much about it - until someone is caught. Remember Hanssen and Ames, both recent cases of espionage.

This isn't out of the ordinary. Its how the game is played. We have agents in Russia, they have agents here, we monitor them, they monitor us, etc. etc. etc. The only question I have is this; why arrest them now?

Zroth, what makes you think Obama was/is a CIA operative?

And I guarantee we have agents in Russia, to. This is no surprise, really.

Yep, the timing looks rather significant.

Now that we arrested Russian spies, do you think Russia will sell the S-300 anti-aircraft missles to Iran?

Perception of Russian spies in New Jersey Nets offices hastened retirement of Rod Thorn, sources say

Strange?

all of the major powers spy on each other. we even spy on countries like england and vise versa. this is just how our world works

Authorities still searching for Boris Badanov and Natasha .. The top agents Rocky the flying squirrel and Bullwinkle the moose are leading the search...

They are. But, is there a real ally? You don't know, because it only depends on how misinformed you are.

In fact, I'm not even sure if CIA itself is your ally...

I didn't see the complaint itself, but how did they find out they're Russian at all?

In this courtroom sketch, Anna Chapman, left, Vicky Pelaez, second from left, the defendant known as "Richard Murphy", center, the defendant known as "Cynthia Murphy", second from right, and the defendant known as "Juan Lazaro" are seen in Manhattan federal court in New York, Monday, June 28, 2010.

I wonder if the Anna Chapman is the same who was dateing the Manhattan billionaire Ron Perelman. The picture below is the two of them together she looks a lot like the drawing.





Ron Perelman was involed with the Monica Lewinsky Bill Clinton case.

Jan. 7: Lewinsky signs an affidavit in the Jones case declaring she "never had a sexual relationship with the president." Her lawyer does not, however, submit the affidavit yet. Lewinsky goes to Jordan's office with it. Jordan calls White House three times.


Jan. 8: Lewinsky interviews at MacAndrews & Forbes in New York. She tells Jordan the interview went poorly and he calls the chairman, Ronald Perelman. Jordan makes three calls to White House, including two to the counsel's office.


Jan. 9: Lewinsky interviews again with MacAndrews & Forbes, and with Revlon. She informally accepts a Revlon job. She calls Jordan with news. Jordan informs president, who responds: "Thank you very much."
