LONDON Reports that KGB defector Alexander Litvinenko converted to Islam before his mysterious poisoning with radioactive polonium 210 is raising suspicions that he may have been involved in a plot to smuggle the deadly substance to terrorist groups willing to pay millions even for a gram, Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin is reporting today.
Scotland Yard detectives are now trying to discover if Litvinenko had any secret links with Islamic extremist terror groups, the London Sunday Express is reporting.
Their biggest fear, the paper reports, is that Litvinenko, who died of polonium-210 poisoning in a London hospital, may have been helping al-Qaida or other extremist groups get hold of radioactive material to be used in a devastating "dirty" atom bomb.
Britain's secret intelligence service MI6 had earlier learned that al-Qaida was prepared to pay $3 million a gram for polonium 210, G2 Bulletin reported last week.

Alexander Litvinenko confessed to his father to a wish to be buried as a Moslem
Special services killed him with nuclear weapon
Interview with Litvinenko's father, bit on Islam at the end.
Just because Ahmed Zakayev, another Muslim player for power, said so, it doesn't follow he was.
I'd believe this guy for nothing. The first thought is that he is trying to repair his relationship with Putin's regime and offers it a hand...
As to the idea that Litvinenko smuggled material for a dirty nuke, it is laughable. Nuke made of Polonium?! Return the journo who conceived this to secondary school... or may it be the first time he'd go to one?
Another funny question is why Russians decided to kill Litvinenko with all that publicity, leaving the traces that led back to them...
The answer is that
a) there is no bad publicity;
b) their goal was to intimidate and frighten other whistle blowers - quite death of Litvinenko wouldn't serve the purpose;
c) they denied even the fact that there was any offensive weaponry in Cuba when the ballistic missiles were unloaded from the Soviet ships 24/7...
WND. End of story. ####
Well--yesterday the TImes(UK) reported he was having a Russian orthodox funeral--today they say he asked for a Moslem funeral. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-2486268,00.html
PING. Interesting twist to Litvinenko story. Maybe FSB disinformation, maybe not.
I say - find out where the Islamists are getting the 3 million
and nuke the source.

Check out the photo:

Thanks A.Pole.
And the plot sickens...
I think that Brits are afraid to discover Kremlin role in this case. This is disgusting because from now everyone could be announced to be Jihadist. Dirty game cause Litvinenko had no possibility to fight for his good name.
