Rest in peace Alexei Navalny

Do you really think that is not a possibility? Do you know anything about how the CIA works - pro and con?

And, do you know the difference better a question, a statement, and an assumption?

Maybe you are an expert on this case, or the Sergei Magnitsky case and can fill me in on the facts of the matter, i.e. from both sides, or is your immediate assumption that Russia has only evil intent and wants kill dissidents?

Every time the US wants to dump on Russia we get a story about how Russia poisons someone using a poison that is associated with or only produced in Russia. Is that not the least bit interesting to you?

Every hear of Fred Hampton? Martin Luther King? These political things are not always so easy to figure out. Keep on eye on what is going to happen to Tucker Carlson for his "treasonous" interview with Vladimir Putin.

It is not so easy to keep and open mind about international relations. You seem to automatically believe the stories we hear in the West and automatically get red hot and jumping up when you think those stories are being challenged or questioned?

What's the deal with you. Popping off like you do is a cheap way to pretend Patriotism - like words are cheap.

It is a fucked up think that you do questioning my character and patriotism because I want to know the truth. To you being suspicous are asking questions is a thing to attack. Woof, woof, attack dog.

Kremlin says Navalny works with CIA after he accuses Putin of poisoning

Don't you think probably some of them have been? We sure have a lot of movies with that theme? A lot of American celebrities and scientists and business men are operatives of the CIA.

It is quite conceivable that shitty prison conditions contributed to his demise.

But also Russia has a long history of murdering dissidents, activists, politicians etc.

People don't realize how hostile the UK & US have been to Russia.

A good TV series about this, not really historical, was Reilly: Ace Of Spies.

Reilly, Ace of Spies is a 1983 British television programme dramatizing the life of Sidney Reilly, a Russian-born adventurer who became one of the greatest spies ever to work for the United Kingdom and the British Empire. Among his exploits, in the early 20th century, were the infiltration of the German General Staff in 1917 and a near-overthrow of the Bolsheviks in 1918. His reputation with women was as legendary as his genius for espionage.

The British especially have feared and hated Russia because of how the Communists murdered the Russian royals. Same with the US.

Read about all the times the US tried to assassinate Fidel Castro, and you can imagine that we have been trying for decades to kill Putin.

We've been working like crazy to propagandize the Russian people, and our own people. The fear that we have over Tucker Carlson just talking to Putin. So volatile that every story in the media has been about attacking Carlson, who I don't care much for anyway. But when they attack Carlson, conspicuously absent are analysis of what Putin said, and counterpoints of truth. Because a lot of what Putin said was true, though he had his own Russian interpretation of it, and reaction to it.

We are terrified and during the Ukraine war the social media was censored, and discussion boards of our main newspapers were distorted or shut down.

I don't know what the Grey Zone is, but everyone's got their slant on things, even them. Someday maybe there will be global discussion, news and polling ... but there are no adults in the global room to moderate it.

The new leaks illustrate in alarming detail how Reuters and the BBC – two of the largest and most distinguished news organizations in the world – attempted to answer the British foreign ministry’s call for help in improving its “ability to respond and to promote our message across Russia,” and to “counter the Russian government’s narrative.” Among the UK FCO’s stated goals, according to the director of the CDMD, was to “weaken the Russian State’s influence on its near neighbours.”

No, I mean it. Navalny was treated in a barbaric unciviled way. I think they used him as an example and warning to other CIA operatives that it will not turn out well for them.
Just look at how many times and different ways American tried to assassinate Fidel Castro or to overthrow Hugo Chavez.

If we do not want countries to do this to each other ... how can that happen?
