I saw this, too.  I have to note that the FBI sent 1 (one) agent to 
those 3 countries, and left the 1 (one) agent they had in Romania, there.

What good can 1 (one) agent do?  If the answer is "a lot and here's what...",
then why do they have so dern many agents in big cities in the USA?

If the answer is "not much", then why bother?

Something else is afoot here...
