Oh, that’s terribly sad. I hope the local authorities can figure out how these people were poisoned before there are more cases.
Sad to say I now regard Britain as LESS trustworthy than Russia.
Never thought it would be this way....
Do YOU think your Gummint could have done it...?
“Authorities later determined that both people had been exposed to Novichok, a military-grade nerve agent produced by the Soviet Union decades ago.”
Actually the labs were never able to tie the agent to Russia. It is the UK government that is putting forth the lie that they did. It could have been Russia, but it could have been someone else. If you repeat a lie often enough then people just believe it.
Islamic prayers?
Sorry to hear this. Clearly there is a lot we have no idea about.
I still don’t think it is the Russians and sooner believe that the British are doing it.
When guns are banned, then people will find other ways to kill other people.
I’d consider that along the same lines as acid attacks and consider THAT community first, before the Russians.
I’d think that is the Russians were going to off someone, they would not do it in such a way as to be so obvious that it was them.
It's likely this is related, possibly accidental, unless there's more to the deceased lady and her husband than is being said.
The point man for the UK government in the case is Home Secretary Sajid Javid who said earlier today no new sanctions were envisioned on Russia over this matter.
I hope it stays that way because I hope the ruling elites have gotten over their rage against Russia.
But will they tell us the truth about this whole thing?
Someone has died.
These folks completely not associated with Russia, much less a target of Russia.
Additionally, they were not in any known place of the previous exposures.
How the hell did they come into contact with this agent in Britain? And, will British authorities ever tell anyone what they discover?
I like her hat, but even with the hat on, it’s obvious that she has a bad haircut. Or a good haircut far too long ago.
Hmm, maybe the investigation should start there.
Considering the proximity of the pair’s exposure to the British chemical weapons facility at Porton Down, how exactly do they judge the nerve agent to be “Soviet” / Russian and rule out the possibility of it being their own? Seems like somebody is pushing hard for a new cold, or even hot, war.
“I like her hat, but even with the hat on, its obvious that she has a bad haircut. Or a good haircut far too long ago.”
She needs a Comanche haircut.
Comanche men made statements with their hair. Women’s was usually short and practical.
I know. I was being a decent person.
