Mr. MF Drago put the spotlight on Headquarters and tossd the ball to those principles and directors.... like wiping his hands of the responsibility and blame which - I feel - he understands will be enormongous (my word)!
I am imagining the context in which he made this statement - it would be a moment that if filmed would make any picture an Oscar-winner (sort of like Jack Nicholson losing his cool in A Few Good Men).
