Say what that means, slowly.

It means the architect did not wait for a grievance to sell his weapon to.

He manufactured the grievance.

He opened the door so the hackers would ruin Solistan, so Solistan would come looking for justice, so there would be a buyer for Platform 4.

The hack, the revenge, the deaths tonight, all of it built so he could watch what a wounded state does with a weapon that leaves no name.

You think I want that buried? No, Agent Maddox, that is bigger than my country and yours.

On this, for once, Moscow and Washington belong in the same room.

You've known for weeks.
