Do you believe, as Alexander Litvinenko did, that the apartment bombings in Moscow, which were blamed on Chechen rebels and used as a pretext to invade Chechnya, were planned?
OK: I do believe that. The Chechens would never blow up low-income housing in Moscow. Why would they? That would spread animosity towards the Chechens. Mr. Shchekochikhin, the editor of the only liberal Russian newspaper, Novaya Gazeta, was appointed by the Russian parliament to investigate the bombings of these apartment houses and was poisoned just like Litvinenko. He died the same way: He lost his hair, 12 days in a coma. Sergey Yushchenkov, also a member of the same commission to investigate the bombings, was gunned down by his apartment.
Once again you choose to believe the enemies of humanity (islamic terrorists) over the Russians. While I may not believe Putin to be a saint and may harbor a bit of distrust towards Russia, I can wait patiently to see if they will be our ally, while you jump at the chance to aid the enemies of humanity just for the sake of hurting Russia.
You have some truly messed up priorities!
Litvinenko had previously been suspected (even by his own admission) of smuggling radioactive materials into Northern Europe. Based on his history I would not be surprised if he wasn’t making material available to both the chechens (killers of schoolchildren) and possibly Western European (probably British) moslems to cause real havok. I honestly don’t know if the Russian govt had a hand in killing him, but if they did, I’m not sure they’re really the bad guys.
