Either Russia is able to decrypt the most sensitive British communications, +++

Do you believe in it? Russia has british "enigma" machine?
Or British so stupid that cann't invent even strong cyphers?
Or that I like more:)). Russians so smart that British never match for them.

Strong cyphers aren't enough if the communications clerks are careless in their observation of communications security. The NKVD in the U.S. in WW II used theoretically unbreakable one-time pads, but the communications were decyphered over time because of the clerks' carelessness.

Oh I wouldn't go that far.

It's no secret that everyone spies on each other .. but if Russia was so smart .. why did they side with an evil madman like Saddam ..
