My WIFE is a math teacher and she says it was an inside job. Her reasoning is that it's impossible to have so many coincidences go the same way and produce exactly the result the State would have wanted to see in the first place.

My SISTER-IN-LAW is a historian. She says this kind of thing is normal, it's been done for as long as we have records of history, and the people of the country victimized by its rulers always have trouble believing it and always prefer to blame a foreign enemy.

Her COUSIN is a consultant, and she says that it's easy to compartmentalize the operation so that very few lower-level people know what it's actually about, in the same way that middle management rarely understands the overall workings of a corporation.

Guess that settles it, eh? Got any other irrelevant relatives?
