When he arrived at Wesley, Japell was like a savior

In less than a day, the president of the United States fully understood the true meaning of "the world is cold" and "the river is declining" Before Wesley returned, Japel and several interest groups linked to Jonathan's death received exactly the same answer: they would not bear any responsibility

Having dealt with interest groups for decades, Mr. Japell was well aware of the situation at hand

No rentier will help the outgoing president, who is almost destined to be notorious, and if necessary, he will even push him and let Japel fall into the abyss of no return, and if the president is dragged into the whirlpool of scandal, they will mercilessly send the president into the eighteenth layer of hell Lincoln's assassination, Kennedy's tragic death, Nixon's disgrace, and Clinton's notoriety are all the ends of offending interest groups

Japel was not willing to fail, and he was not willing to be a scapegoat

Thinking back to what happened a few months ago, Japell regretted that he did not leave evidence related to interest groups, and he knew that it was impossible to get evidence related to interest groups, whether Miles or Jonathan, they were just lackeys of interest groups, or just part of "interest groups".

According to the "principle of compatibility of interests", after Miles' death, someone naturally took his place

The "interest group" is not established by a certain person, nor is it controlled by a certain person, but is composed of a group of people with the same interests, the same purpose, and the same will, and the group moves forward under the drive of "maximizing interests", and every member of the group is irrelevant, but if a member violates the interests of the group and deviates from the direction of the group, he will be ruthlessly expelled, and even die without a place to be buried, even if Japel has evidence that is unfavorable to the interest group, he can only trap a few group members, and cannot completely destroy the interest group

Jappel is well aware of the mystery and the rules of the game for interest groups

At this critical juncture, the only thing the president can rely on is the "pitiful" power in his hands

"The Mossad's reply is very positive, as long as China does not sell strategic offensive weapons to Iran, Israel will not make a big move, and the information we provide is very timely and critical, and it has achieved good results."

"The head of the Mossad is called Bentor?"

"Maybe it's a pseudonym," Wesley smiled wryly, "although the Mossad promised not to spy on intelligence in the United States, but they only have Israeli interests in their eyes, not American interests, and I even doubt that the person who met with me was the Mossad director or just a stand-in."

"Why?" Japel frowned slightly

"Feeling," Wesley sighed, "we didn't talk about much, and it was basically related to Iran, and with my years of experience, I felt that the Bentor dialect was all made up in advance, not like an impromptu play."

"At least Israel will not ask us for immediate and large military assistance"

Wesley nodded, "That's for sure, after all, our military aid is just a drop in the bucket, and we should put more effort into diplomacy and make it public."

"I'll have Lynch or Eric visit Israel as an envoy as soon as possible," Japeel rubbed his forehead, "Do you know what's going on in the country lately?" ”

Wesley hesitated slightly, and said, "I've been watching 'Momentary News'"

Japell nodded, got up and walked towards the window

The director of the CIA also stood up, but he did not know the president's situation very well with the past, and could even guess what the president wanted to do Unlike the previous director, Wesley is a professional intelligence officer with no political leanings, and his experience as a professional intelligence officer with no political leanings told him that the president's ass is not clean and his duties tell him that in addition to serving the president, he must also abide by the law and protect the interests of the country

What if the president's order conflicts with the law and with the interests of the country?

This is not a simple multiple-choice question, on the one hand, professional ethics, and on the other hand, civic responsibility

"Actually, I should have told you these things a few months ago," Japell turned and invited Wesley to sit down on the couch

"Remember that incident five years ago?"

Wesley frowned slightly, "You're talking about ......"

"You are a direct participant, you know the inside story of the incident better than me," Japel also sat down, "More than four months ago, Jonathan submitted a report that China is applying composite batteries and superconducting motors to the military field, I heard that you also participated in the drafting of the report?" ”

Wesley nodded, to be precise, he wrote the report himself

"At the time, I was also deluded and followed Jonathan's advice"

"What advice?" Curiosity drove Wesley to ask

"Jonathan believes that if a war breaks out between India and Pakistan, China will certainly not sit idly by, and the easiest way to prove whether China is equipped with new weapons equipped with composite batteries and superconducting motors, and how much China's military power has improved, and whether it poses a threat to us, is a war."

Wesley was secretly shocked that he had written a purely technical report and did not recommend that the president instigate war

"Now we know that Jonathan has been in the service of the arms group" Japelle

"If I had known, I wouldn't have taken his advice, let alone \|) Q India Conducts Covert Operations"

Wesley was even more surprised, although the president did not say it directly, but these words showed that the president was indeed directly related to the "Humayun Tomb bombing" and even the assassination of former Indian Prime Minister Degandhi

"It's just that I don't regret it," Japell showed a tough side, "Although the fourth Indo-Pakistani war caused great damage, our goal was achieved, China not only applied composite batteries and superconducting motors to the military field, but also far exceeded our expectations, without this war, we are still in the dark This war has sounded the alarm for us, let us catch up, increase investment in related fields, and lay the foundation for ensuring national interests"

Wesley didn't deny it, and he knew that the president's purpose was more than that

"What I didn't expect was that someone would accuse me of this now," Japel looked frustrated, "even if ordinary people can't understand it, it is impossible for those Republican congressmen not to understand that for the sake of partisan interests, they are still qualified to talk about 'America First' in Congress?" ”

"How did Jonathan die?" Wesley asks a very critical question

Regardless of whether Japell instigated the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War for the sake of national interests, because the war was not fought on the American soil, the United States did not directly participate in the war, and did not cause civilian casualties in the United States, it is impossible for the US judiciary to investigate the president on this issue, and the Republican Party is unlikely to make a big fuss about this issue, and even if the truth is found, it is only a "policy mistake", and it is impossible for the judiciary to prosecute the president on this basis, and Japel will be discredited at most

The key question is whether Jonathan's death has anything to do with the president

Under U.S. law, if the president orders the assassination of Jonathan, or otherwise causes Jonathan's death, the president commits first-degree murder, with the lightest punishment being life imprisonment

After a little hesitation, Japel said with great certainty: "I also want to know how Jonathan died, otherwise I wouldn't have forced F to re-investigate the cause of his death with the Federal Bureau of Justice."

This reply did not satisfy Wesley

Is it possible that the president personally ordered the assassination of Jonathan?

Maybe, maybe not

From Wesley's point of view, he didn't think the president would do such a stupid thing

The president has no incentive to get rid of Jonathan, nor is it possible to give the former C.I.A. director a political future

The question is, will Silboak, who has always been known for his objectivity and impartiality, make accusations against the president out of nothing?

After pondering for a while, Wesley couldn't come to a conclusion

"Wesley, no matter what you think, I hope you can believe me" Japeel doesn't have so much patience" It is undeniable that I have made mistakes in some decisions, but I have been serving the national interests and serving the American people until now, I will definitely find out the cause of Jonathan's death, but I cannot allow some politicians with ulterior motives to use public opinion and public opinion, shouting the slogan of 'America First', but behind the scenes for the party and private profit! ”

Wesley sighed secretly, "Your Excellency, the investigation into Jonathan's death is a matter of ...... with the Federal Bureau of Justice."

"We have to stop the situation from escalating," Japeel said, "so we have to be wary of those who are planning against the wrongdoers."

Wesley nodded slightly and said, "So, what can I do?" ”

"Use the resources you have to spy on all the people involved," Japell sighed, "This is an informal assignment, and I can't give you written authorization"

Wesley smiled bitterly, he knew it would be like this

The president is in a scandal, and the beneficiary is the Republican Party, which has been spying on the White House for several years, according to the principle of "profit motive", the president who is most suspected of the Republican Party's covert manipulation of the media must monitor the top Republican Party, and cannot use the judicial and intelligence agencies mainly responsible for domestic affairs, such as the FSA, the NSA, and the Federal Bureau of Judicial Investigation, and the only option is to use the resources of the CIA

After thinking for a moment, Wesley nodded, "I'll monitor the personnel involved as you command."

"You have to report to me in real time," Japel stood up, "The doors of the White House are open to you at any time, and contact me as soon as there is any progress."

"If nothing else, I'll take my leave"

When he left the White House, Wesley's steps were very heavy

He didn't want to get involved in the current "Indiagate" and "mysterious deathgate" incidents, but his position, power, and relationship with the president made him unavoidableAs an intelligence officer with decades of experience who has personally witnessed the "Hostagegate" and "Iran-Contra incidents", Wesley knows that when the storm is over, there will be no happy ending

Damn it*
