and the scene at the end reminds me of this issue we are facing now.

An assassin for hire suggests that an American, now in danger from his own country (the US), move to Europe for a safer, relaxed life style, the American said, "I am an American and I would miss it if I leave" and the reply was, "What a pity". Even the NY Times could deny the evil that is the core of American politicians and their clandestine games of power and control for $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Nothing is certain, and no one can be trusted.
