"Welcome back," said a woman bending over me in Rostov regional hospital. The nurse tells me that when they brought me in I was "almost hopeless". Then she whispers: "My dear, they tried to poison you." All the tests taken at the airport have been destroyed - on orders "from on high", say the doctors.

I see a drama queen? Does anyone believe the FSB is so incompetent they would attempt to murder this lady with poison and not succeed? However, Ms. Politkovskaya does create a dramatic story by including this in her article.

Even Mossad screwed up a poisoning in Jordan a few years ago. And Russia has failed at a lot of things lately. Also it's not entirely clear that they wanted to murder her. Perhaps they just wanted her sick enough so as to be unable to report on Beslan before the hostage incident ended.
