Did Ray Davis Shoot Two Pakistani Agents?
Source: ABC News

The public narrative from the United States is simple: one of its diplomats in one of the most dangerous countries in the world was threatened by two men with guns, and the diplomat shot and killed them in self-defense. He sits in jail, "illegally detained," because he enjoys diplomatic immunity.

1. My first reaction was, "You gotta be kidding!"
I mis-read and thought it was Ray Davies (The Kinks).

5. Did they identify themselves as such? Also, would a diplomat shoot unless ..
He really was in danger? If he were a spy would he eliminate his two rivals IN the country in obvious fashion? What a crock of shit, time to arrest the pakistani diplomat on charges of being a douche.
