"This is the hard stuff. The above is French for assassination.
And of course, the French should say this well for they have
done so many of them. Remember Peter Wright of Britain's
MI-5 deflecting CIA's James Angleton's request for help with
an assassination: "Have you tried the French? This is more
their kind of thing."- and so it is."
