Just as with the reports of record number of kilos of coke being seized in various places around the world, the conservative way to interpret this bodes ill 4 China. If the reports are true in spirit... That is, if CIA lost more agents than ever before in the last few years, the simplest explanation is, the agency HAS more agents than ever before! That would make perfect sense, since Chinese these days have an amazing level of access to ideas such as democracy, and a record number of Chinese are scratching their heads right now trying to figure out whether the state should serve the people or the people should serve the state. This was not really a question many Chinese have entertained for the last 10000 years, unless you also count the death row philosophers.
China hopes against all hope to go on with the political philosophy outlined by Confuzius and Li Erh: punish thought crime with death, and all shall be well. This works great until the state starts providing anything resembling the Internet. People in China found out about "democracy", for example, the moment the state started censoring Web pages containing the word. The Chinese brand of Censorship does not work on the Internet because people can plainly see WHAT is being censored, defeating the purpose.
So the simplest, Occamiest explanation of the trend is that more Chinese than ever before are being so dissatisfied with their government, they are willing 2 aid a foreign intel service, even though the fallout is as grim as always.
Reader, watch China carefully. They are the world's powder keg. No one will be ready for that explosion, because no one believes it will happen. But if and when a revolutionary spark appears there, it will be entirely too late to make any plans.
