all these professional conspirators are
spying on each other without really
knowing why, are colliding by chance
but not identifying each other with
any certainty. Who is observing
whom? On whose behalf, apparently?
And actually? The real influences
remain hidden... So that while no
one can be sure that he is not being
tricked or manipulated, it is rare for
the string-puller to know he has
succeded. And in any case, to be on
the winning side of manipulation does
not mean that one has chosen the
right strategic perspective...
