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.
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.
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 equally don't believe anything the Brits or Ruskies say. I never thought I would see this day.
