Russia arrests two spies allegedly working for Britain
MOSCOW, Jan. 28 (Xinhuanet) -- Russia has arrested two spies allegedly working for British intelligence, the Interfax news agency reported on Saturday.

"Two British spies have been arrested. Of course they are not silent. They are talking," Nikolai Kovalyov, former chief of the Federal Security Bureau (FSB), told Russia's NTV television station in a program that is scheduled to be aired Sunday night, Interfax said.

1. Talking? I bet they are. Torture has a way of loosening the tongue. And
now the West has no legal or moral ground to stand on when we tell anyone else to stop.

2. Russia does not allow torture. No more than US does, anyway.

3. Exactly. Scratch the surface of each country's intelligence services and
what do you have? People who'll fight each other for the right to wield the whip (so to speak).
