2024 armed to teeth 犯台高代價 0110~0111 2015 周末周日


前天半夜三點半，收到正在新加坡出席「香格里拉對話」的德國友人傳來中國國防部長董軍有關台灣的恫嚇性發言。

近廿五鐘的講話，可以歸成三句話：

1。
台灣是屬於中國的。

2。
台獨勢力加外國勢力正在把台灣拉離中國。

3。
中國的人民解放軍隨時準備好打擊台獨，收回台灣。

中共政權把台灣的民主化當作是台獨。國際社會和台灣人（？）都知道。

我和朋友的共識：

除了民主國家間互相扶持，共舟共濟外，要中國放棄侵略台灣，
只有一種可能：
隨時讓他們覺得代價太高！2024

這感人的故事引發一些聯想：第一次碰到Astérix et Obélix是1978年，我的牛津大學畢業的同學靦腆地說，他們中學學法語從他倆的漫畫故事開始。我當時有地利之便，讀了幾本......沒想到作者87歲了.....沒錯，一息尚存，人都會做他的天職 (睡前翻Matisse:Father & Son By John Russell，知道Henry Matisse在臨終前一天，仍跟"親人"要紙和筆，為她畫像......)，愛他的祖國。

Plot[edit]

The film opens with a crowded London market (Borough market) being destroyed through an explosive terrorist attack. Farroukh Erdogan is detained as the primary suspect and mastermind of the attack while his two alleged co-conspirators are killed in attempts to apprehend them (unseen to the viewer).
Barristers Martin Rose and Claudia Simmons-Howe are selected by the British Attorney General to represent Farroukh in court after the previous barrister fell off a roof. The two barristers secretly had an affair in the past, which became known to Martin's wife and has caused an alienation from her and their son. Due to the classified nature of the sources in the trial, the trial is split into two divisions. Claudia will represent Farroukh in closed hearings to attempt to determine which classified pieces of information are required for his defense. Martin will represent him in the open trial using information allowed by the closed hearings. The two barristers are not allowed to contact one another. Claudia is watched over by MI5 agent Nazrul Sharma with very strict rules of accessing the classified information. Martin is assisted by friend and lawyer Devlin.
The case quickly turns mysterious for both barristers. Farroukh and his family refuse to talk and simply state he's guilty. Martin and Claudia notice signs that they're secretly being monitored. Investigation into peculiar aspects of Farroukh's past leads Martin to discover that Farroukh was a secret MI5 agent, who had been planted in a terrorist cell in London. It is never revealed whether Farroukh double-crossed MI5 or if the cell double-crossed him, but in either case, the terrorist attack was accidentally funded by MI5. MI5 is willing to kill to keep this secret, and Farroukh and his family are admitting guilt in order to avoid assassination. Meanwhile, a prominent American journalist, Joanna Reece attempts to get close to Martin in order to get information about the trial, but Martin is one step ahead. He eventually gets Joanna's help by sharing information she has on the case (though Reece is mysteriously murdered soon after).
Martin secretly passes this information to Claudia. She brings the information forward in the first closed hearing while questioning high-ranking MI5 agent Melissa. The judge demands that Farroukh's son testify the following day as he was a major informant for MI5 in the case. When Claudia returns home, an assassin attempts to kill her, but she manages to escape. Farroukh's son realizes he is going to be killed and escapes surveillance. Martin, Claudia, and Farroukh's son spend the night evading Melissa and Nazrul, during which Devlin is revealed to be working with MI5. The trio manage to deliver Farroukh's son to the closed hearing where he testifies, but Nazrul kills Farroukh in prison and makes it appear as a suicide, rendering the case closed. The Attorney General threatens Martin in private, saying that he purposefully assigned Martin and Claudia to the case due to knowing their secret history, and if he does not remain quiet about what Martin found during the trial, he'll have the duo of barristers disbarred for their conduct during the trial.
The closing audio of the film reveals the conspiracy is eventually revealed to the public.

It's the scandal of the poetry that 'contingent' features of sound and rhythm systematically infect and affect thought.
