From a still photo I thought he was security jacked on adrenaline.
But with all the shouting he does act like an allahu nutbar.
Wonder how he got that close, armed and with no other guards.

Well, Alexander Litvinenko for one. He also attempted to assassinate Viktor Yushchenko, but he survived.

Then there are all of his critics who tend to get mysteriously gunned down around Moscow, like Victor Nemsov, Anna Politkovskaya, Paul Klebnikov, Sergei Yushenkov, and Stanislav Markelov.

Well that would mean it was Syrian “Rebels”. One of Hillary/McCains Boyz. Would not want to be near either one right now.

So what? If my enemy shoots my enemy, I am not going to be sad.

Okay, nothing here I haven't already read up on and dismissed outright. And I've got a lot experience in investigations and carried creds so I speak from experience. I don't doubt Putin/Russian FSB may have done some targeted killing, but I would put it somewhere between France and Israel in terms of numbers and audaciousness.

Litvinenko and Politkovskaya are the two cases always put forth as evidence, yet they're the worst. Politkovskaya was detained by Russian forces in a guerrilla war in Chechnya 5 years prior to her death. But we are to believe Putin waited for a more opportune time, like when she was living in Moscow, with all kinds of witnesses/associates around, and then hired Chechen organized criminals to gun her down near her apartment. And Putin was then able to manipulate Belgian police who uncovered this crime and the killers??

For any serious person looking into the cases you cited, they will find them even more ludicrous than the MSM anti-Trump propaganda. Look, I understand the neocon reason trying to undermine Russia, but just don't expect intelligent and serious people to buy it. As a truth at least.

Very professional hit. Used a Turkish policeman special ops person. He had fought in Aleppo apparently. Designed to cause problems between Turkey and Russia. The Saud/Qatari pipeline through Turkey is number one motive now, with a Arkancide number 2.

Yeah, Turkey really wants assad out

Basher Assad is as bad as his father, Hafiz Assad.
The Arabs have been fighting each other since there have been Arabs. It USED to be over land, water, family and honor. Now, it's about land, family, money and water. Not too much has changed.

The Turks are an empire unto themselves. FEARLESS people. They won't get Assad out as it would start yet another war. They will leave best alone.

ANY Persian can be insulted by being assumed that s/he is an Arab. Lol. How to piss of an Iranian 101.
