Even the KGB, MI6, CIA and KGB had their conduits of information and defused many crises. So the trail ends here. Very few assassins' trails have been followed up to their masters, if it is obvious that it is state-sponsored. It always stops at the first cut-out. The truth might be difficult to contain.
