Metafor?
Since I'm feeling cynical, maybe I should go try 'n cash this:
War news from the liberal press New York Times.
CIA agents Bill C. and Chris M. were killed by the Enemy in Afghanistan last weekend. Their names were released by the intelligence agency at the request of their families, no doubt to protect their good names. The paper doesn't give any operational details, but that type of business, as you no doubt know, is complicated, ugly and for the most part, out of sight. It is entirely possible that, when a certain CIA agent's identity became known to the Enemy in Africa, her associations were linked in order to identify, track and 'neutrallize' agents C. and M.
The reporter Novak, who rightfully exercised his free speech, and the treasonous mole he works with should realize their likely complicity in this tragic setback. It is horrid to know that this 'person' sits at the hand of our President.
