You should take note that Strobe Talbet is Deputy Secretary of State. He cannot force through any policy on his own. Without your Congress, your Senate and your President he can't do a damned thing. Strobe has at least been honest with his intentions. All I'm saying is that he's been the only one to be up front about his plans, while the others have agreed, but have been doing their deeds silently.
I don't say this out of defense for Talbot, because I've followed his career. I do not like the guy at all. Instead, this is a damning statement directed at those who would decieve and betray.
