How the Kremlin's enemies die: Poison, staged suicides, falling out of windows… the many different ways Moscow's opponents meet their maker, as Alexei Navalny is 'killed using KGB heart punch'
Daily Mail ^ | 21 February 2024 | Chris Jewers

Posted on 02/22/2024 4:20:07 AM PST by Chad C. Mulligan

The death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny and accusations that Vladimir Putin was behind it have once again raised the spectre of Kremlin assassinations.

World leaders and commentators instantly pointed the finger at the Russian president when the news of Navalny's death broke on Friday, with questions around the cause of death fuelled by officials delaying the release of the body.

Some have suggested the 47-year-old dissident was poisoned - as he was in 2020 in a previous assassination attempt - while one source inside the prison colony where Navalny died has claimed he was likely killed by a single punch to the heart.

Vladimir Osechkin, a Russian exile and human rights campaigner, said bruising found on the opposition leader's body was consistent with the 'one-punch' execution method popular among agents of the Soviet Union's KGB security service.

'It is an old method of the KGB's special forces divisions,' Osechkin told The Times.

'They trained their operatives to kill a man with one punch in the heart, in the centre of the body. It was a hallmark of the KGB.'

It doesn't take a keen Kremlin watcher to see Navalny's death as the latest in a long list of attempts to eradicate opponents of Putin over the years.

Navalny was a CIA asset.

Clinically, it’s the The Five-Point-Palm Exploding-Heart-Technique.

Per the interwebz, known for being the most deadly blow in all of martial arts, the move consists of a combination of five strikes with one’s fingertips to five different pressure points on the target’s body. After the target walks away and has taken five steps, their heart explodes in their body and they fall to the floor.

But yeah, the band based their name off this move. https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/articles/features/the_origins_behind_the_band_name_five_finger_death_punch-158785

For me personally, it’s not about Putin being no big deal, he’s a really bad terrible person who kills his political enemies, my point is I don’t really care about Putin and his dealings inside Russia, I care about what happens in the USA and we have a history of killing off or jailing our own political enemies, no one is a better example than what’s happening to Trump.

Julian Assange is not dead, he’s rotting in jail and what was his crime ?? Embarrassing the CIA and our government in general and publishing the DNC’s emails.

Gonzalo Liro could be a total criminal but he’s an American Citizen who got thrown in prison by Ukraine a country we are sending billions to just so they can fight Russia.

Alexei Navalny was frequently described as an “activist”. So was Barrack Obama, by the way. So I personally am not crying too much.

Chad stepping up to fill the propaganda void left by Mom and Speedy!

There hasn't been a more disreputable source about the war in Ukraine, Putin and Russia than the Daily Mail.

It's the source that claimed Putin was dead and Russia was using a body double in his place. That Putin and stomach, thyroid and blood cancer. That, two years, Russia was running out of ammo and missiles.

Life in a police state

That is certainly an example of projection from someone that lives in Canada under Justin Trudeau.

Which country is it that has been even churches from quoting the Bible on homosexuality? Not Russia. It's Canada that has done that.

Here's what's going on YOUR country this month:

https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/us-trial-mann-defamation-steyn-simberg-1.7110203

Canadian writer Mark Steyn ordered to pay climate scientist $1M US after defamation trial

A jury on Thursday awarded $1 million US to climate scientist Michael Mann, who sued a pair of conservative writers 12 years ago after they compared his depictions of global warming to a convicted child molester.

Mann, a professor of climate science at the University of Pennsylvania, rose to fame for a graph first published in 1998 in the journal Nature that was dubbed the "hockey stick" for its dramatic illustration of a warming planet.

The work brought Mann wide exposure but also many skeptics, including the two writers Mann took to court for comments that he said affected his career and reputation in the U.S. and internationally.

"It feels great," Mann said Thursday after the six-person jury delivered its verdict. "It's a good day for us, it's a good day for science."

Do you think the 60-plus individuals connected to one the Clinton's many scandals that were deemed to have committed suicide weren't assassinated?

How Jeffery Epstein? Do you really think he hanged himself?

Do you really think Seth Rich was the victim of a robbery attempt?

Why did Tara Reade have to flee the country?

Stop acting like whatever you think is going on in Russia is worse than what is going on here.

I don't give a damn what has to happen to you, including dying the same kind of death Gonzalo Lira suffered in Ukraine, to make you care more about rampant corruption in this country.

Defenestration seems to have been a Russian tradition since the Czars. They did it to Czechoslovak foreign minister Jan Masaryk in 1948, when Hillary was only 4 months old.

If I were to write a movie script with a Russian “internet influencer” in it, I could do no better than to use this guy’s posts as a model.

I agree about issues here, and about Assange. Trump is a great example too As to lire , there are lots of Americans in foreign prisons, as we have many in our prisons.

My point on lire is his crimes are not simply being critical of zalinsky or Ukraine, he is a shifty dude people are making somekind of martyr

Just like the female basketball player, play stupid games get stupid prizes.

That’s my point..
