    Yup more on it from the BBC

    "Mr Hrytsak alleged that Russian security services had recruited a Ukrainian citizen to find hitmen within the country. He said the citizen approached several acquaintances, including war veterans, offering $30,000 for the contract killing, one of whom revealed the plot to the security services."

    Of course the Ukrainians are more than capable of their own propaganda, but yeah I would say this whole episode will infuriate the Kremlin. Getting outplayed.

    The Kremlin (and it's outlets) will now play this as "well if this was staged, what else is staged" and "you see, everything is a conspiracy against Russia"

    Calling it now

    A fair enough comment I would have thought.

    That said I realise that there are some here who think the west never lies, engages in false flags, nor goes to war on anything but the most scrupulous of principles.

    You need to quit this Russiaphobia. There are courses, I believe.

    I predict the usual - 4 or 5 alternative theories, none of which implicate Russia and a couple of false flag narratives.

    But Hiroshima! the Iraq war! Dresden! the colonisation of the native Americans (I'm not joking, I've actually seen that brought up in a debate about Putin)

    Anything critical of Putin must be deflected by bringing up some atrocity in history. That "defense" speaks volumes.

    Yeah .... and all the evidence can be found on social media!

    It certainly wasn’t novichok. That’s all we can say right now.

    This whole anti Putin frenzy is reminiscent of 1984. The book, not the year.

    We should get you all in a room at 11 am to scream at images of Putin. 2 minutes hate.

    Do explain. Has any aviation disaster in the past relied on social media as evidence? Yes or no?


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,817 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe

    Dear OPCW,

    While you may be the "so-called" world authority on nerve agents and chemical weapons, and that your results are separately "correlated" by DST Laboratory in Porton Down. It is hereby and forthwith my expert and completely objective opinion that it certainly wasn't Novichok, because like come on, no way, and stuff

    novichok would kill instantly and without fail. So we are told.

    The only thing you know about this is what you were told to believe of course. For the more rational the whole shambles of a false flag gets even less believable.

    Who knows, maybe the Ukrainians did it.

    Yes, amateurs. But they definitely poisoned the skirpals who are now kept safely in detention in the U.K. and producing the odd very odd message. For their own safety.

    The whole McCarthyism of the pseudo left (and the far right airsoft fellow travellers) continues to amuse. Shouting putinbot isn’t that much of an argument, but it’s all they got.

    I am no more an expert than anybody here. I don’t believe the official reports because they are contradictory

    And here is why they might well lie.

    Do you think the OPCW is in "cahoots" with NATO/whatever to discredit Russia here? Bearing in mind its an international organisation that's not Western.

    novichok would kill instantly and without fail. So we are told.

    Dosage and treatment

    This is posted repeatedly in every single thread on the subject. For example
    Andrei Zheleznyakov was working on chemical weapons in the 1980s when a hood malfunction exposed him to the deadly nerve agent
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/mar/22/andrei-zheleznyakov-soviet-scientist-poisoned-novichok

    So the followup retort will be "yeah so why are they so healthy"

    The response: Dosage and treatment

    How much were they exposed to, how quick and effective was the treatment

    The treatment:
    "Dr Stephen Jukes, the Intensive Care Consultant who treated the Skripals a week after they arrived at the hospital, said on admission the medical team suspected both were suffering an opioid overdose but the diagnosis quickly changed to a nerve agent poisoning.

    BBC Newsnight was told that at first it was simply a matter of keeping the Skripals alive.

    They were heavily sedated and given heavy doses of drugs designed to protect them from the effects of the poison,"

    Of which Russia is a member. They've worked closely with Russia in the past.

    Not in the form that was used:
    The newspaper also quoted an anonymous source, saying: “The Kremlin wanted to get its agents out of Britain before the Novichok could be identified. So they reduced its toxicity and used it in a gel form rather than as a gas – had the Skripals inhaled the nerve agent they would have died very quickly.

    “The Russians still banked on Sergei and Yulia dying as a result of their exposure, even though they had effectively watered it down.”

    You are trolling. The OPCW is the preeminent chemical weapons authority on this planet. Their word and findings are recognised as representing absolute fact by world governments. There is no higher level of proof than their findings. Stop with the búllsh1t

    Do explain. Has any aviation disaster in the past relied on social media as evidence? Yes or no?

    Since when are photos and videos not admissible in court ?

    The JIT had to make a case that will stick in court ...with evidence that does the same ... Whatever bellincat found out 2 years ago was pretty accurate ... What the investigation team has done since is gathered more evidence convincing enough to put in front of a judge

    So if you think they rely on social media evidence to make this stick I suggest to switch to an alternative news outlet

    That seemed like a ridiculous scheme. Resulted in one arrest. Hardly tackling a conspiracy or giving the FSB a bloody nose.

    Give it a time, I bet they have all communications of that guy recorded. Soon there might be pretty interesting interceptions...
