Novichok, spies, Korea etc

We'll never know the chicanery between the powers, we'll only know a few tales here and there. Nothing of substance.
When one considers the lot of a double-agent, well, one can understand that this isnt an ideal career in the long term, and you won't ever know who comes to get you, but someone will.
I recall a news piece about a British spy who was found dead in a suitcase in a bath and the official response was that there were no suspicious circumstances at all.
As for korea, well, it seems less on the brink of mad war with itself than it has for some years, so that's a good thing.
I expect the US Navy with its nukes etc is still tripping around the coast off Korea and China much to the chagrin of those countries and the Americans I guess will keep doing that out of habit. It is an expensive habit...and something could go wrong, of course, but we won't know.
Wishing people find reason in peace. If you can't destroy someone, perhaps peace is better and cheaper than war overall.
