Start?

It's hardly as if US intelligence officers have never previously been charged by foreign governments.

Yes, for torture [1], assassination [2], rendition [3], and war crimes [4][5]. Never merely for propaganda.

Really? And you know this how? Just because the Chinese or Russian government's don't make a public spectacle, doesn't mean they haven't indicted US citizens for espionage. I'm willing to bet there's more than one US government employee who would be arrested the second they cleared customs in one or both of those countries.

Your argument might have at least some weight if it didn't rely on super-secret, invisible gremlins.

Based on your post history, I can't tell if you're a troll or actually believe what you're saying, but 30 seconds on google would alleviate you of your ignorance.

This has ALREADY HAPPENED. Russia has enticed people they secretly indicted on spy charges back to Russia, and then stuck them in prison.

Come on. I'll ignore, for now, your attempt at insults.

These Russian spies in the US were not US IC agents.

They were in fact charged as US IC agents; they weren't US IC officers, though.

Now you're pretending that Obama delivered 10 "American" agents to Russia...

Farce, idiocy, or trolling, I can't tell.
