CIA chief's heartbreak as she discovers son died fighting for Russia

Pictures show the CIA deputy director's son who - unbeknownst to his mother and father - was fighting for Vladimir Putin in Ukraine.

While fighting in the Russian army in Ukraine.

There couldn’t possibly be any national security implications or threats .
This seems fine - CIA upper management has no idea her own son is fighting for a foreign nation.

Extremely fucked up .

I’m betting had he been fighting for Ukraine it wouldn’t have taken a year or more for the story to be made public .

Hey son where have you been the last year or so ?
I am in the basement Mom

So after reading some more there is so much double speak in that article it is mind boggling. He wouldn't hurt a flea but has the sprint of a warrior.
Sounds like the parents were in denial that he was there. I am sure being CIA and Nav veteran they knew exactly where he was and why he was doing.

Well, at least he wasnt fighting for the ukraine

I’m smelling plausible deniability

Oh, sure. Next you'll be telling me that taxpayers have been funding both sides of most conflicts in the world. Oh, wait....

The simplest explanation was that he was an asset. When the wet team bureaucrats start talking about emotions, you know it is all lies.

I think the simplest explanation is "I hate you mom and dad I'll show you!" Cue press ganging and dying in a ditch

Agreed, I read a few paragraphs and quit. Pure bullshit.
