Agreed...........Although I'm pretty sure Great Britain and her allies have carried out many clandestine operations of their own that we just don't get to hear about. Possibly because they carried them out with a little bit more panache and not leaving any room for accountabilty

I'm not so sure about our own complacency regarding Nuclear safe practices either

P.s. Great series and brings back scary memories of the event.
