Disturbing report
This is not good news for the Allies of the United States of America.

Quote from The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire says it all:
“The incapacity of a weak and distracted government may often assume the appearance and produce the effects of a treasonable correspondence with the public enemy. If (Gothic Invader) Alaric himself had been introduced into the council of Ravenna, he would probably have advised the same measures which were actually pursued by the ministers of Honorius.” [I:XXXI]
