#1 Unlike typical spy retirements in obscurity, the Russians should capitalize on this by putting these women into the fashion industry, touting "spy chic" clothing.

Of course, women would *never* be interested in having a fashion look that said excitement, minor intrigue, suspense, keeping secrets, romance, foreign travel, with the only real risk of becoming a celebrity fashion model if they were caught. Oh, heck no.

#6 Not to mention Russia is likely slipping in a few highly competent other-than-Mexican illegals over our southern borders along with the vast army of 'regular' illegals.

#7 The current incarnation of the KGB, et al., is the FSB, Federal'naya sluzhba bezopasnosti Rossiyskoy Federatsii, or "Federal Security Service".

Oddly enough, the Military Intelligence Directorate, the GRU, Glavnoye Razvedyvatel'noye Upravleniye, or "II Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation", has had the same name since 1918.
