    Allow me to say thanks for posting that article. Nice read. In every debate one can find supporting sources for or against a topic. Harley Sugarman describes himself as a magician and it appears you may have been tricked.

    Anyways, all he has pointed out is that the movie producers basically created the villains based on what was happening at the time. What is wrong with that? A British agent working for MI6 showing loyalty to queen and country ... again ... what is the issue with that? How is it different you Xander Cage should love for his country using a parachute with the American flag on it?

    Harley Sugarman wrote this paper for a grade. Pity you thought this was something to use to prop up a weak argument? Duh better than that dude.
