Titolo: Crack police take on Russian poisoning case (Reuters)

Conciato male il Colonnello del FSB Livitnenko che aveva fatto defezione 
a Londra: e' completamente calvo e con i reni devastati. 
IL cui prodest del veleno e' chiaro: non solo indagava sulla 
Politkovskaya, ma aveva anche pubblicato un libro sulla strategia della 
tensione di Putin, con attentati a Mosca per intervenire in Cecenia.

Crack police take on Russian poisoning case
Monday November 20, 07:18 PM
 
LONDON (Reuters) - Britain put its crack anti-terrorism police unit on 
the case of a former Russian spy, who was fighting for his life on 
Monday after being poisoned in what his friends called a Kremlin 
assassination plot.
Russia dismissed as "pure nonsense" suggestions it had ordered the 
murder of former agent Alexander Litvinenko, 41, an outspoken critic of 
President Vladimir Putin.
Evidence of a Kremlin hand in such an incident on British soil would 
have far-reaching diplomatic consequences at a time of mounting concern 
in the West at Moscow's human rights record.
Litvinenko checked into a hospital at the beginning of the month after 
falling ill and was moved to another hospital when his condition 
worsened.
Toxicology reports now show he was poisoned by thallium, a chemical 
weapon that can cause a slow, painful death over the course of weeks or 
months, even with treatment.
Pictures released of him on Monday showed him strapped to medical 
equipment in hospital, wan and bald. Hair loss is one of thallium's 
effects.
The hospital said Litvinenko's condition had deteriorated slightly 
overnight and he had been transferred to intensive care. Doctors say he 
has only a 50/50 chance of surviving.
Police say they were called in to the case only last week -- two weeks 
after Litvinenko fell ill -- and are investigating whether he was 
deliberately poisoned.
They said in a statement that the counter-terrorism branch of London's 
Metropolitan police had taken over the case.
Officers were interviewing potential witnesses, including Litvinenko 
himself, studying his movements before he took sick and examining 
closed-circuit television pictures.
Alexander Goldfarb, who helped Litvinenko defect to Britain six years 
ago, told Reuters the former spy was the victim of a plot directed from 
the heart of the Russian government.
"This is a Kremlin-backed operation of Russian intelligence services -- 
whether it goes to the top of the Kremlin or to the top of the Russian 
secret service I cannot say," said Goldfarb, himself a Russian dissident 
who now has U.S. citizenship.
In Moscow, deputy Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov replied: "There is no 
need to comment on statements that are pure nonsense." An FSB spokesman 
declined comment and the Russian embassy in London described 
Litvinenko's case as an "accident".
A GRAM CAN KILL
Litvinenko has said he fell ill after meeting a source at a sushi 
restaurant while looking into the case of investigative journalist Anna 
Politkovskaya, a Putin critic gunned down at her Moscow apartment last 
month.
John Henry, a clinical toxicologist, told BBC radio there was no doubt 
he had been poisoned by thallium. "It is tasteless, colourless, 
odourless. It takes about a gram ... to kill you."
Litvinenko, now a British citizen, co-authored a book in 2002 entitled 
"Blowing up Russia: Terror from Within", in which he alleged FSB agents 
co-ordinated apartment block bombings in Russia that killed more than 
300 people in 1999.
The bombings, which authorities blamed on Chechen rebels, led to a shift 
in public opinion in Russia, affording Putin popular backing for his 
decision to move troops into Chechnya.
Poison is an old tool of Cold War spycraft. In 1978, Georgi Markov, a 
Bulgarian dissident, was killed in London by a man who jabbed him with a 
poisoned umbrella.
But there are worries such Cold War-era killings could make a comeback. 
Ukraine's President Viktor Yushchenko fell ill after dining with 
security service leaders before an election in 2004. Doctors found he 
was poisoned with dioxin.

 Umm non e' piu' il KGB di una volta.
Avvelenano Yushenko con chili di diossina e quello diventa presidente
dell'Ucraina.
Ora giusto mentre entra in vigore un trattato di estradizione tra Russia e
Gran Bretagna si autoavvelena un doppio giochista legato a filo doppio con
Beregowsky che rischia l'estradizione e la galera in Russia.
Anche qua veleni esoterici ma nessun morto.
Anche qua tanto fumo, magari il nostro devastato lo troveremo a capo di
qualche holding a breve.
Come nel caso Hariri il processo sommario viene fatto alcuni minuti dopo il
fatto.
Come nel caso Politowskaia giornalista americana di origini Russe.
Nessuno di questi casi di omicidio mediatico o tentato omicidio mediatico e'
mai stato dimostrato con prove.
E giustamente sorge il sospetto ( la certezza nel caso Yushenko ) che si
tratti di montature propagandistiche.
Ricordo che in Russia nei prossimi due anni si rinnova la Duma e si cambia
presidente.
Qualcuno fa campagna elettorale a casa degli altri seminando morti, Putin
dice giustamente contro gli interessi della Russia, visto che la
Politowskaia non la conosceva nessuno ( oltre ai circoli neocon ) ora e' un
martire.

Peccato che a 'sta versione ci credono solo i russi (pochi) e quei 4 
gatti di antimperialisti, bruciatori di bandiere e di fantocci...

Gia' puoi giurarci, quei pochi di russi ovvero il 99% hanno ben chiaro chi
ha messo su Yushenko e l'altro Mussolini in erba in Georgia.
Oltre a cio quei pochi sanno come si vota negli USA, ovvero.
 In questi giorni l’annuncio del nuovo documentario sui presunti brogli
elettorali, realizzato da Enrico Deaglio e Beppe Cremagnani, ha innescato
numerose polemiche e discussioni.
Nell’articolo del Corriere della Sera si parla anche della testimonianza di
un programmatore informatico, tale Clinton Curtis, che nel 2001,
inconsapevole, preparò un software per truccare le elezioni credendo di
realizzare un programma per evitare “frodi”, ma dopo aver capito che il
software sarebbe stato utilizzato per falsificare il voto ha denunciato
tutto.
Il video che segue è una testimonianza filmata delle dichiarazioni che
Clinton Curtis ha rilasciato davanti ad una Commissione Parlamentare subito
dopo il risultato delle elezioni del Presidente Americano.
Tutte cose ampliamente dibattute da ste parti.
Da voi meno vero?
Gap democratico.
