Navalny Novichok Poisoning: The (Very Unlikely) Story So Far
“Maybe the Russians failed on purpose because they want to scare us.”
Kit Knightly
For those of you who haven’t been following the news – Russian politician (or “opposition figure”, as he is universally referred to in the Western press) Alexei Navalny was taken ill two weeks ago. It is now being reported he was “poisoned” with “novichok”.
Here’s a quick rundown of the official story as it currently stands (bearing in mind that, as with most “official stories” it will likely be subject to instant, contradictory and retroactive changes in the coming weeks):
- Alexei Navalny has never held any elected office, his political party doesn’t have a single MP in the Duma, and he polls at roughly 2% support with the Russian people.
- Despite this, and in the middle of an alleged “pandemic”, Vladimir Putin deems the man a threat and orders him killed.
- The State apparatus responsible for unnecessary and seemingly arbitrary acts of political murder decide to use novichok to poison him.
- This decision is taken in spite of the facts that a) Novichok totally and utterly failed to work in their alleged murder of the Skripals and b) It has already been widely publicly associated with Russia.
- Rather unsurprisingly, the novichok which didn’t kill its alleged target last time, doesn’t kill its alleged target this time either.
- Compounding their poor decision making, the Russians perform an emergency landing and take Navalny straight to a hospital for emergency medical care.
- Despite Navalny being helpless and comatose in a Russian hospital, the powerful state-backed assassination team make no further attempts on his life.
- In fact, seemingly determined to under no circumstances successfully kill their intended victim, the Russian government, allow him to leave the country and get medical help from one of the countries which previously accused them of using novichok.
- To absolutely no one’s surprise, the Germans claim to have detected novichok in Navalny’s system.
- Vladimir Putin and the Russian government are immediately blamed for the attempted murder.
If all this seems unlikely to you, don’t worry Luke Harding is here to explain it all.
He doesn’t have any evidence, of course. Instead we get sentences like this one [our emphasis]:
Over the past decade Moscow has produced and stockpiled small quantities, western intelligence agencies believe.
However, never let it be said that Luke isn’t aware of the contradictions in his story:
One other unresolved question is why Moscow granted permission for Navalny to be treated abroad, knowing that sooner or later the novichok inside his body would be detected.
But he has an answer for this:
The logical conclusion: Moscow wants the world to know.
You see, Putin wants everyone to know he did it, so he’s making it obvious. And the Kremlin’s denials are being done with “a wink and smile”. This must be some new meaning of the word “logical” I wasn’t previously aware of.
One wonders what the Russians would have done if the novichok had worked as intended, and killed Navalny before he could get to a hospital.
They couldn’t send him to Berlin then, so who announces the novichok was there? Do they do it themselves?
Oh well, at least now people will have something to talk about that isn’t the rapidly crumbling Covid narrative.

Did Navalny drink Novichok from a bottle of water in his hotel room in Tomsk – where he slept the night before his ill-fated flight?
Marina Pevchikh the companion of Navalny is now claiming – get this: They (the Russian media outlet Proekt) revealed that the allegedly poisoned bottle was brought to Germany by Navalny associate Maria Pevchikh, a British resident who Russian police claim fled the country after refusing to answer their questions. She also refused to respond to requests from the Russian publication.
This sounds like the same guys who brought is the Skripal hoax! (NB my little book ‘the great British Skripal hoax’ if you want to brush up on the topic)
You can put her name into Google images and get a load of pics of her and Navalny.
No-one seems to be talking about Marina Pevchikh. She accompanied Navalny very closely. She’s on the plane with him then after the ‘poisoning’ she suddenly goes to Germany – and tight-lipped German officials refused to comment upon this close associate of Navalny, or how a Russian citizen managed to obtain a permit for entering the country so fast, especially with Covid-19 restrictions supposedly in place.RT reported that she ‘is believed to hold a UK residence permit – or even citizenship.’ Uh-huh. I suggest this was a two-stage op. she puts something into his drunk while he’s on the plane. then once hre’s in Germany some ‘novichok’ is combined with a blood sample from him.
Russia should issue an arrest warrant for her.
.
Well, in both cases with Novichock, there was a miracle, or the western medicine is very powerful. By the way, anyone knows where Skripals are now?
One thing I am wondering about, is the same reaction of Russia in the Covid scam, which is same as the the reaction of the west, I mean, in one hand the west is still fighting against the bad Russians, but in the covid they are together, I need some help there.
Excellent follow-up on this by James Corbett, in which he refers to Kit’s article about this.

Strange how NATO never demands an immediate investigation and accountability when Americans poison Hugo Chavez.
Or when our friends with the Little Black Hats poison Yasser Arafat.and any number of other people.
Odd, that.
That is strange…
The Navalny official narrative is so absurd it can only be a loyalty test, as no one could be expected to believe it. Anyone who does not repeat the official narrative exposes their self as an enemy.
Now there is a conundrum. If you believe that covid-19 is either a hoax or a mild flu then why have Putin and the Russian scientists and doctors apparently produced an effective vaccine. Is Putin part of the conspiracy to control us and is part of the new world order conspiracy? But then why is this same Putin being denigrate and attacked falsely by the real novichok hoaxers? No doubt some real clever mental contortionist might be able to explain this.
With regard to the supposed Russian “vaccine”, perhaps Putin is calling the bluff of those behind the hoax pandemic. The latter would know that there can be no vaccine as the virus has never been isolated, but they can’t say that the Russian vaccine is a fraud because they would have to declare how they know that and the truth would be revealed. Maybe that in part explains the demonisation of Russia yet again through the Novichok/Navalny nonsense – desperate measures to ensure that Russia doesn’t get the upper hand.
That is the lovely thing about conspiracies, you just have to invent another conspiracy this time by the Russians, in order to prove the first conspiracy and so on it goes in endless contortions.
Perhaps he’s just trying to con people out of a few roubles.
If it doesn’t exist, he can peddle any old snake oil as a cure and get all the vodka money he needs.
Then people can take it and claim they’ve been poisoned with Novichok.
Paul
Exactly, see my comment above, and thank you for a practical demonstration. Full marks for own goal.
My question: what did They use on Graeber?
FYI
Here is something from the Saker website
https://thesaker.is/russians-are-the-dumbest-most-incompetent-idiots-on-the-planet/
The West wants us to believe Vladimir Putin is at one and the same time a dazzling Mephistopheles capable of arranging elections in America and Britain, fixing Brexit, and fomenting separatism from Scotland to Spain, whilst at the same time being a blithering, self-harming idiot.The man who brought the whole western world down on his head through not one, but two failed attempts to dispose of utterly harmless marginal critics – who, in the case of Alexey Navalny, would be incapable of winning a single seat in a provincial local authority.
G. Galloway
I suppose that soon the Russians will be start involved in meddling to parent board elections of schools
So, is Germany now going to ‘disappear’ Navalny as the UK did the Skripals?
While Nordstream 2 is an obvious consideration for this ham-fisted propaganda,
I think it could be that a more worrying prospect for the West is that Russia really
has discovered a genuine covid vaccine –hence the step up in the Putin vilification.
How could anyone want to use a Russian medicine , it’s bound to be full of Novochok.
@MC: “How could anyone want to use a Russian medicine”.
The Russian vaccine may be no better than distilled water, as one friend put it. Not a bad idea: Distilled Water, the ideal vaccine for the imaginary disease. And perfectly safe.
What I thought too…
They’ve just sanctioned the Russian lab that developed their vaccine.
Uncle Sam’s way of saying thank you for all the PPE and ventilators that Russia airlifted to New York.
A few years ago, Luke Hardings had an interview with Aaron Mate when he was publicising his book about Trump colluding with Russia. LH repeatedly ignored Mate’s request for actual evidence, instead, doing as he is now, asserting that Putin is a very bad man & so must be guilty. He ( then & now ) invokes a number of high profiles cases that accuse the Kremlin of assassinating political opponenents, none of which individually bear close scrutinity, but collectively can impress the uninformed. ( LH eventually unilaterally ended that interview, deeming Mate’s insistence that a whole book devoted to accusing Trump of collusion is obliged to present evidence of guilt. )
The Official Conspiracy Theory is that Russia tried to assasinate Navalny, just like the Official Conspiracy Theory is that Russia tried to kill the Skripals.
Until alternativ news sites use the term ‘Conspiracy Theory’ more often against MSM the term will be used in a one sided manner.
It’s nearly as bad in my eyes of talking about Israel. To me it should be Israel67, the International recognised boundries of the country which to some is a moveable feast until the borders of ‘Greater Israel’ are realised.
Hmm… – Further to an idle speculation of mine in reply to Charlotte Russe down-thread, re: possible Navalny/Steele-dossier connection, I went and did some further digging around and came across *this* interesting lil’ rabbit hole. – Enjoy!:,,,
https://jimmysllama.com/2018/05/07/11191
We now know the most likely reasoning behind this case. It dripped out this morning in a report on the news that Mrs. Merkel is being urged to “reconsider Germany’s involvement in the Nord Stream 2 project in the light of the revelations about Russian involveemnt in this poisoning”. I read that and literally everything dropped into place. We have a situation where a Russian politician falls ill on a flight (a vigorous opponent of Putin who nobdy outside Russia had heard of), the flight is diverted, the politician is hospitalized, tests fail to find any trace of acetylchlorinase inhibitors (but they did find dangerously low blood sugar levels), a fuss is made about getting politican to Germany, the hospital in Omsk is ‘holding’ him but eventually he’s put on a special flight. He gets to Germany where traces of “Novichok type poisoning” are found and so on — the whole thing reads like a script.
The question we need answers for is “What’s the big deal about Nord Stream 2 that literally any or everything is being done to prevent it from being completed?”. Its just a gas pipeline — but if its completed who stands to gain and who stands to lose? As ever, follow the money….
Same old, same old. Merkel doing a Theresa May / Novichok scenario, nasty evil Russians, Putin the evil mastermind et, etc. It’s all so tiresome and boringly obvious that these western “leaders ” are following a script written for them by their vile American owners who are determined to sabotage the Nord Stream 2 project. It’s not just a “gas pipeline ” it’s a real threat to the malign influence and control of the American empire over its vassal states in Europe.
What about the real physical and psychological torture of Julian Assange (as documented by the Lancet), and the real murder of Jamal Khashoggi who was dismembered on orders of Mr. Pompeo’s friend, the Saudi Arabian crown prince. Frau Merkel and Mr. Jens Stoltenberg (NATO Secretary General) have been barking up a wrong tree.
Navalny had 1-2% of support of the Russian people. It is quite clear that he was basically an agent of the Cabal. Exposing corruption in PM Menvedev’s Russia was like shooting fish in a barrel. Putin left him alone more or less because he was more valuable as a joke. Like all agents of a western “intelligence” agency, he suddenly ran the risk that he was more valuable as a patsy in a coma than a non-functional (comatose) politician. The CIA/NSA/MOSSAD/MI6 are not known for their loyalty and sentimentality. What comes around, goes around.

A transparent CIA Gay Op.
The Exceptional Folk have been trying to sabotage Nordstream for a long time now without much success.
As the main proponents of the Great Global Warming Hoax, Germans have banned nuclear power and coal.
That leaves gas, unless they plan on using firewood to power their homes. Mickey Mouse windmills can be ruled out.
Trump and the Neocons and the Big Oil Mafia have been trying to strong arm the Germans into buying their fracked “freedom gas” LNG at double the price they can get it from Russia. Like they’re trying to force them into buying more and more grossly overpriced US weapons that don’t work.
The Germans told them to stick their LNG where the sun don’t shine.
Cue another bargain basement, third rate Skripal type Hoax to activate their Fifth Column in Germany.
The army of Udo Ulfkotte type media whores on the CIA payroll.
The bought and paid for quisling politicians bribed, threatened, blackmailed and suborned to act as Washington’s paid shills.
All demanding the cancellation of Nordstream regardless of the cost to German industry and the effect on the German consumer.
Germany is going under anyway. It is drowning under a tidal wave of unassimilable Third World rapefugees and gimmegrants, courtesy of Mama Merkel, Gysi, Spectre, Sarkozy, Levy and their ilk. All the positive aspects of German society and economy are fast disappearing as it is transformed into a Third World S***hole with third world standards.
Deutsche Bank is already bankrupt.
Russia would be better off redirecting all its energy output to China, India and the like.
Let the Germans freeze in their homes and their industry collapse through rocketing energy costs. Let them stew in their own juice and bear the full cost of being a US satellite.
I think you are being a little harsh on Ufo Ulfkotte. It is true he was for decades a propagandist for the CIA, but he did come clean and publish a book exposing it. Sadly, he died shortly after of “natural causes”.
Maybe Putin novichoked him as well.
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/
Next we are supposed to believe that Putin, having poisoned Navalny with novichok, allowed him to be flown to Germany to be saved, making it certain the novichok would be discovered. And that Putin did this because he was worried Merkel was angry, not realising she might be still more angry when she discovered Putin had poisoned him with novichok
There are a whole stream of utterly unbelievable points there, every single one of which you have to believe to go along with the western narrative. Personally I do not buy a single one of them, but then I am a notorious Russophile traitor.
It’s definitely all true because it was being widely reported by the BBC that Russia is truly an evil empire whose main industry is the manufacture of Novichok to be administered to anyone who stands up for freedom and justice like what we have here in the West .
This is the same BBC that publicly asserted “We’re in an information war with Russia”?
Yes that’s rich coming from the BBC …masters of disinformation and news by omission . How they must hate us at OffG !
Novichok is a highly dangerous military-grade nerve agent and its release anywhere would have meant total lockdown of the area or areas in which it was released. Salisbury should have been shut down when the Skripals were allegedly poisoned with it. It was not because everybody should know they were poisoned by Fentanyl.
https://johnplatinumgoss.com/2019/03/05/fentanyl-poisoned-the-skripals-back-to-basics/
This Navalny nonsense is the same as the Litvinenko nonsense. I believe the Russians may have murdered Nikolai Glushkov a week after they were accused of being involved in our secret services’ Skripal false flag event, to show how clinical they are with assassination attempts.
Or much simpler, the Skripals were never poisoned.
A hoax does not require any reality.
Except they were poisoned by Fentanyl.
http://dilyana.bg/skripals-poisoned-with-fentanyl/
All credit to Dilyana, but Sergei wasn’t poisoned with Fentanyl like Yulia, but with BZ, which was found in their blood samples by the Spiez lab, along with the “high purity Novichok” that PD had added to them, and some break down products. DI Bailey also showed classic symptoms of BZ intoxication, despite claims in “the Salisbury Poisoning” that he had a “massive dose” of Novichok – but somehow resisted it and “remained conscious the whole time”.
I think we need a new classification for this cognitive disjunction, like “triple-think” – the ability to hold two contradictory ideas in your head at once, while still believing a third that makes both of them nonsense.
They didn’t have to lockdown Salisbury because a week or so after the event Public Health England advised the good citizens of Salisbury on decontamination procedures for dealing with a weapons grade deadly nerve agent: ie, wash your clothes in a washing machine and wipe any hard objects (such as a mobile phone) with a baby wipe.
Well “novichok” must be the least effective assassination tool ever! I’d be asking for my money back.
If this Novi-thingy is an attempt to distract us from that Corona-thingy it shows just how desperate they are to do so. From BS to b*ll*cks.
Well, as with the Skripal story this has nothing to do with reality and everything to do with maintaining the West’s anti-Russia narrative.
I am hopeful that at least some previously media-trusting lockdown sceptics will begin to join the dots and realise that it is not only the threat of covid-19 that is being massively exaggerated, but also the threat of Russia.
It’s always Russia, Russia, Russia, don’t look over there look over here..the more the MSM point the finger at Putin the less likely it is him..how about China, China, China that’s where the real problems lie.
I agree with moneycircus same people behind Covid are behind Novichok ..
Yes, Western governments.
Watch out! INDIA, INDIA, INDIA is lurking on that same horizon eastwards, and a little further south. They run neck and neck now with China, in sheer numbers.
I read in 2005 that all three countries had then entered a science and information sharing compact, as a triumvirate alliance, to defend themselves from the NATO-West. Now, if they can only get the Pink Tide and Bolivarian countries to the South of US, aboard, you might have a fearsome foursome to run interference for all humanity! We’re going to need it.
thanks, great post, I don’t watch or listen to any news, tv or radio, mainly because, once your eyes can see, you can’t unsee, and everything becomes see-through: Fake news
Brilliant! What the fuck is going on in this mad world! I think all reason has deserted the planet.
We’ve had the Age of Reason; welcome to the Age of Absurdity.
Meanwhile, on the BBC:
“A top ally of German Chancellor Angela Merkel has warned that the EU risks becoming irrelevant if it fails to act against Russia over the poisoning of opposition politician Alexei Navalny.
Norbert Röttgen said a major gas deal with Russia must now be reconsidered.”
Maybe Boris can chime in: apparently ‘some guy’ (remember him?) at PD confirmed to the German doktors it was a Novichokky-like substance. So there you have it. It could have been smeared on the seat before his flight to Siberia.
Are there any Russian diplomats left to expel? If there are, I hope they’ve been still trying to communicate with their citizen and ex-citizen, held incommunicado for a couple of years.
Anyway, I thought Mr Putin was a smart fellow, but he’s gone and sent the ‘victim’ of the failed attack to Germany for treatment at their request.
Poor Norbert Rottgen. Is he suffering a cognitive decline? Here are two names for Herr Norbert Rottgen to consider: Julian Assange and Jamal Khashoggi. Nothing is alleged about physical and psychological torture of Mr. Assange and nothing is alleged about the dismemberment of Mr. Khashoggi. Everything about Skripals’ and Navalny’ poisoning has been alleged. If Herr Norbert Rottgen does not understand this, he needs a nanny.
1. This “Novichok” is a bit useless as an assassin’s weapon, never does the job properly and really needs to be dropped from the toolkit, to be honest.
2. Putin is way dumber than he looks, fancy authorising your mark to fly to the west so that their top medical experts can detect the Novichok straight away.
3. What old Putin and all his mob in Moscow clean forgot to factor into their evil plans (D’oh!!) was that all this went down just in the nick of time for the naturally impulsive Merkel to put completion of Nordstream II on hold indefinitely.
4. Luckily, we have got Lukey and all the other ace reporters on hand to set the record straight.
Oh my. If the general public believe all the utter total horseshit they are spoonfed by the lying media trash then they are gullible and stupid far beyond any possible hope of redemption.
Here’s a follow to my previous post: “One of the most striking features of the media campaign about Navalny is that not a single newspaper has critically examined or even honestly discussed his politics. Readers are expected to take at face value that no one, except from Putin, could have any interest in poisoning Navalny, and that Navalny represents some kind of principled, democratic opposition to the Putin regime.
The presentation of Navalny as the leader of some kind of democratic popular movement is a conscious fraud.
Navalny is not a popular leader but a creation of imperialism, and representative of some of the most right-wing elements within the Russian oligarchy. Though his popularity has grown somewhat in recent months amidst the Kremlin’s catastrophic handling of the coronavirus pandemic, only 2 percent of the population named Navalny as the politician they trusted the most in a Levada poll from late July.”
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2020/09/03/nava-s03.html
Could Navalny, like Skripal, have been one of Cristopher Steele’s (in)famous ‘Russian Sources'(tm)?… – Here’s a Torygraph article from February 2018 that obliquely implies that may be the case:…

The old favourites are always the best!!!
The dastardly Putin sends off his hapless KGB goons yet again, with orders to bump off intrepid “democracy campaigner” Navalny , using the dreaded, fearsome Novichok poison.
This really, really, really, really deadly substance is so toxic it is 100 times as powerful as kryptonite. Just one drop of it is enough to wipe out a city the size of London.
But fear not!!! Putin’s goons are foiled again!!! Not only do they fail to take out their target, but none of a plane load of people are affected either!!!
The KGB Academy is now revising its curriculum as a matter of urgency. “Evil Henchman 101” Class is now being completely revamped.
Luckily we have our very own Luke Harding to explain it all to us.
Clearly another MOSSAD & CIA Inc. operation… They took him to Germany so that now the american terrorists can try and FORCE Germany to STOP Nord Stream II.
One just needs to read the USofT MAIN S H I T MEDIA, they are just only talking about the gas pipeline!
Go Go…
Why does the deadly nerve agent Novichok never kill anyone? It’s not much of a weapon.
As with COVID-19 it’s only a minor irritant, unless you have a pre-existing comorbidity such as the effects of a long-term drug habit like the unfortunate Dawn Sturgess.
The parallels don’t end there, viz the accompanying hyperbole: Daily Express, Nov 2018 – ‘Thousands could have died’ in novichok attack
I’m beginning to suspect the same people are behind COVID and Novichok.
Wait… Novichok is not a nerve agent!!!
“I’m beginning to suspect the same people are behind COVID and Novichok.”
Good Guess!
I’ve been wagering that from the get. The “fingerprints” are a match.
Try this one on.
The NATO-SPOOK establishment has made an offer to Navalny. The will give him US$500,000.00 if he agrees to take a substance which will make him ill in the short term. He will then fake it, and the NATO-SPOOK establishment together with the MSM will blame Putin. Navalny will then be paid off, and go and live in California. NATO-SPOOK establishment will then reap the bonanza propaganda against Putin/Russian and scupper the Nordstream-2 agreement. Easy as pie.
This may seem a rather far-fetched, but it is no more so than BS that the NATO-SPOOK establishment dreamed up. Pathetic or what!?
While just a theory, I really fail to see what is so far fetched about this, it’s probably quite close to the truth.
He’s cheap at the price. Personally, I’d be looking for at least 1 extra zero on the end before I’d even think about it.
Brilliant. The nitwits like Harding don’t even understand that pushing this narrative, they completely discredit their position on the Salisbury incident. They should have at least refrained from using the very word “novichok:.
Why do the Western publics fall for this nonsense time and again? They really do need to stop believing a word the Western media and politicians say about Russia in general and Vladimir Putin in particular.
Why is Germany going ahead with Nordstream II if Putin is such a monster? Or do they expect him to be out of office pronto??
Surely this is not Washington putting heat on Merkel to ditch NSII so they can buy more expensive LNG from the US instead?? That would mean the Germans were as obedient as the Poles, something which would draw snorts of derision all over Germany, me thinks….
The thing is that Merkel is part of the military-intelligence-NATO, deep-state establishment. The German business class desperately wants the Nordstream deal to go through given Germany’s parlous economic position. But it isn’t VW, BMW Siemens, and the Bosch group who make the strategic decisions it is the spook, military and political NATO class. America determines economic and political policies in Europe. Europe and the EU are simply vassal states.
This case is about Nordstream 2 ( as suggested by Wolfgang Ischinger a day ago ) , Russian vaccine and Belarus. Why not? They got away with everything else so far. It’s a club of the same-minded who do not seek anyone’s approval.
The question is; are they ‘falling for it’ as you say? And does it really make any difference what the ‘public’ thinks as we have no power to do anything about anything.
I’m glad he’s alright. Putin didn’t want him dead or he’d be dead. So who did it? Was it an unfortunate accidental medical emergency? Did some one use the chemical in order to blame Putin. I’m sure Western Agents would have no qualms in doing this. Did he fake it himself for the publicity? Does he want asylum abroad?
More to the point, how do you know he was poisoned, by anything?
The mind reels at the notion somehow that it’s often all made up, and hasn’t really happened, at all.
But that’s, mostly, what Psyops ‘R U.S. is all about. Cut your costs.

What did you expect?
After the little Skripal theatre of the absurd outing – this new nonsense reads like a set of ideas for a new Monty Python sketch – that in the end was deemed just a bit too off the wall to ever bother producing.
Cui bono?
The fact is that continues non-stop politicians and MSM claims that Navalny is the “opposition leader” are false. He’s not that in the remotest sense of the phrase “opposition leader”. That title goes to the Communist Party leader.
Navalny is merely an outspoken, right wing, nationalist and his party is not even in Parliament. He gets only 3% following in western NGO validated opinion polls.
Germany “believes” it was
a) Novichok
b) Russia
The UK said it was “highly likely” that the Salisbury incident was
a) Novichok
b) Russia
Neither has conclusive evidence, according to their own words. That’s the real issue.
Both Germany and UK are in NATO. Go figure…
There are the conclusive evidence of the UK-administered tortures of the prominent political prisoner Julian Assange. The tortures are not “highly likely” they are real as this is explained in the Lancet article.
Yeah, this echoes not only the Shitpal drivel Saga (fentanyl), but also the so called Gass attack in Syria, this time its an organ phospath, of course, like the Syrian so called gass attack was by chlorinates, where thry start high, aka with sarin but when some of us said and talked about what sarin was, they backed down to chlorin gass of some sort, witch could easily be just table salt, etc, to cleaning “soaps”, found in every god dammed house on this earth, and somehow, they, just like the CONvid scamdemic, are talking about things that somehow turns out to be just about everywhere, in everything, and we always talk about trace amounts, never anything large enough to be detected directly by just by traces, witch could mean lord know what, again this idiotic propaganda stunt isnt anything else than an insult to intellegence, but then again we know this comes mainly from the Imperial banana republic and they as we know are capable to belive in at least 6 impossible things even before breakfast.
Jesus they are lame.
peace
…And the Novichok saga continues.
Search: “Wikipedia novichok agents”, go to reference 20. A note from the OPCW refers repeatedly to “toxic chemicals”, never once is the word novichok mentioned. An unreliable citation. It can be difficult to get to the truth, just as falsehoods can be used to further political objectives. History warns that such illusions are dangerous. The West is coming closer and closer to confrontation with China and Russia. Yet leaders are blind to the pattern of history, and how it is leading the world to nuclear war.

Tell me something. Was the commedy timing over the assasination near any decision about Nordstream2?
Does it beat the commedy timing of the two assasins(?) trying to take out the Skripasl whilst there was a ongoing Chemical Wargame, and whilst the Skripals were being monitored by the security services and other friends in low places?
There will be more and more anti Russian propaganda heaped upon us in the oncoming weeks. This is because in Assange’s trial they will conflate him with Russia (lies) and nullify any ‘liberal’ outrage when he’s eventually prosecuted.
The more I think about it the more convinced I have become that the UK is living under a CIA directed spook-military dictatorship.
Absolutely no question. If it walks like a duck … And it most certainly does.

In John le Carré’s “Smiley’s People” film with Alec Guinness, also, the mole explains his defection at the end saying “after the War we simply became America’s streetwalkers [at MI6]”.
(Which may also be le Carré offering us his reasons for leaving life as “A Perfect Spy” for that of the spy novelist.)
The whole deployment of the CIA playbook was there for all to see. The obvious intention has been to scupper the Nordstream-2 deal between Germany and Russia. There is a good chance that this little stratagem will succeed. Of course that will be a body blow to the German economy and will infuriate the business class, but hey the business class do not make geopolitical policy.
So Germany will have to import expensive US LNG and in doing so put up Germany’s production costs at a time of global economic crisis and slowdown. Just what the doctor ordered right.
But see Germany along with the rest of the EU/NATO bloc is not a sovereign state – unlike the US which is not a vassal state – and Germany has to do what it is told by its transatlantic ‘partner’.
Francis Gary Powers and his U2 plane were shot down outside Moscow in 1960, scuttling the imminent and urgent peace conference between Eisenhower and Kruschev. Something long suppressed in our Main Scheiße Media was the news that CIA ace of aces pilot Powers named in his Moscow trial the person responsible for getting him shot down: young USMC radar operator at Atsugi Japan “listening” post, Lee Harvey Oswald. I bet to this day that 99.99+ % of Americans have never heard that factoid, that vital piece of the puzzle.
Just as the same vast throng have been kept out of the loop about how Powers died 17 years later, only 47yo.
Shot down yet one last time: he was flying a news chopper in August ’77 for KNBC-4 TV, our affiliate here where we currently abide, covid-bound. While covering a brush fire north of LA his chopper crashed on the return, and Wikipedia is wonderful in the (trademark) incompleteness of its coverage: its piece parrots the official story that he ran out of gas and crashed, killing him and his cameraman. What is missing is eyewitness accounts that told of a mid-air explosion. What is more notably missing (perhaps because it clashes so gaudily with many key points of the historical fantasy narrative of the intervening 60 years) is that Powers was due, within days, to testify to HSCA, House Select Committee on Assassinations, which was then in the spasmodic throes of it’s investigations, later concluding in ’79 –mutedly!– that the JFK killing “probably” involved more than one shooter, hence conspiratorial, though not theoretically. Powers, once with the highest ace pilot ranking in the world, perhaps, above Space Shuttle credentials, was unable to keep that date.
As was Johnny Roselli, Mafia hitman often linked to the same issues, unable to keep the same date with HSCA, as he was found floating, in ’77, in a 55 gallon drum in Biscayne Bay, Miami. In sections.
Roselli, I read 20 years ago though unable to confirm but am certain it exists in evidence and hard copy, was described in the memoir of Marilyn Monroe’s maid/confidante, as the last person to sign into her Brentwood guest book the night she died.
Of an overdose. One that was administered by enema, as the LAPD lead detective confirmed in his LA Times three part article about 40 years later.
I read the bit about the Roselli visit at rotten.com, including among much hidden history another bit that Armand Hammer, a client of my old man’s law firm, ecjlaw.com, had performed an illegal abortion on a Russian countess, in his med school days, and for which his father Dr. Julius Hammer, founder of the NYC Communist Party in the early 1900s, took the fall, fearing his son might be executed.
But when I looked back to source some of this at rotten.com I found it is now defunct. Like Ravel’s “Enfante Défunte”, short-lived.
It’s home page featured memorably a skeleton with a stemmed 🌹 between its jaws, and the tagline:
“The day will come when Hell is full and the dead will walk the earth.”
Or as Jakov Smirnoff may have said, I don’t know:
“Is this a great country or what?!”
In any case, Water under the Bridge.
There’s a lot of stuff in there; but an interesting ramble. Re: the Hammer father communist reference, you may also know that Hammer made his first big bucks living in the Soviet Union, met and dealt personally with Lenin, Stalin, and all the others following.
The man definitely had the golden touch working everywhere, making pencils in the USSR, building pipelines and refineries, art galleries, even breeding cattle (Angus beef), Occidental Petroleum, amazing fellow.
He was sort of like the Heinrich Schliemann of the 20th century.
And not to worry: rotten is on the Wayback machine, all the way back to 1997, have fun:

Why has Russia now become so reckless in international affairs, against a decade+ long strategy of not wanting to engage in such diplomatic disasters, suddenly begin now, or quite recently?
In a background of international deals with western nations such as Germany proving to be hugely lucrative for any nation state, risk these by actions of assassination that have a big arrow reading; “this way fellas, we’ll put it up ’em”?
Even if Russia decided to become the Keystone Cops and did attempt to bump off Skripal and his daughter; surely even the Keystone Cops would question the weapon of choice having the Russian Kitemark for severe risk to life, simply because they had attempted the same actual method once before and failed?
For such well renown chess players it’s a bit sloppy. No defence for the Russians, just questions, maybe rhetorical.
his niece actually. Sorry to be pedantic
“I don’t believe it!”*
*said in the voice of Robert Wilson.
Who?
richard wilson : one foot in the grave tv series
Thanks. I live abroad, and we don’t get that here.
it’s an old series – no longer on.
Oh! Yes, him.
his niece actually.
actually not. look it up.
Yes, their high per capita aggregate of international Chess Champions would seem to argue against their knocking over their Kings so early in their matches, and, really what is more, so often.
You’d think they would get past 3 or 4 moves before allowing time and again these redundant checkmates.
Leaves us with redundant, if not monotonous, rhetorical questions.
I’ve brought this up often enough in the locker room of our nearby Y when the guys old enough and studious enough (vets and LEO vets et al. etc) to have some know-how about many of these histories, convene in the early morning hours, and I argue that the Russkies Intel has a high reputation for chess deftness and even those at the lowest level couldn’t possibly be this stupid –but I get routinely jeered, or sneered, more or less. For over 5 years now.
Orwellian group “CrimeStop” at its finest.
Really? – “just questions, maybe rhetorical.”
Maybe that makes them premises.
As usual a little bit behind the narrative, the OGee MO.
MoA has been on this from day one.
Of course the nato doctors in Germany have ‘found’ some poison in his system and of course they got him before the Russians could nurse him out of his coma – to confirm who exactly poisoned him in his internal Russian flight! Or Not. Or whatever happened. It seems the Russian emergency landing and swift medical intervention stopped him dying.
Nah it has nothing to do with Covid/Anti dramatics on show here.
I am disappointed really. I have watched all these amazing hot sexy trained ninja type assassins (usually Russians) who disappeared and then came around in a specialist off grid military top secret elite training camp and for years none stop.are put through rigorous testing. for missions like this.
how did they fuck this mission up
or did they..?
espionage difficult job could go either way.
So glad mi5/6 CIA mossad and all the others are here to protect us from the badddies thoses Russians
the beast from the east
johnnie scarlett will never live it down…lol
