There are a lot of other things this could all be, and the notion that a “complete investigation establishing without doubt that Russia is to blame” all done in the space of 72 hours - is clearly treating the thinking public with utter contempt.
Basically, it looks like Theresa May’s government is having a “Dodgy Dossier” moment, and expects both Cross-Party Westminster and the general public to ■■■■ up all and any bull they might like to make up to get us to fall in with their new “Let’s hate Putin” policy.
Putin is up for re-election in the next few days, and like it or not - he’s popular in his own country. Attempting to sour international relations hoping that his party “remove him” - ain’t gonna work of course.
Meanwhile, the ongoing damage from such soured relationships might be biting off more than we can chew. Theresa May threatens Cyber War against Russia? FFS This beggars belief! Has she taken total leave of her senses?
For all we know, after our initial opening salvo of “Fake News” hurled at the Kremlin - the Russian retaliation might be nothing short of emptying everyone’s bank account in this country with a balance of over six figures… Or acvtivating a previously dormant virus on everyone’s internet-connected device… Or Posting some clandestine pictures of random public figures in compromising situations, all taken through their TVs, Tablets, Iphones, etc. … Or persons other than “Russian Traitors” get bumped off in the near future…
THIS all could well come to pass, regardless of Putin being guilty as charged as well as innocent of course! I just can’t see the wisdom in picking a fight we cannot possibly win. Divided Britain vs a United Front in Russia. The so-called “Opposition” in Russia are following that by-now familiar old line “Anyone but Putin”. They don’t have any policies of their own, just getting rid of Putin. That the west appears to be interfering in the forthoming Russian elections should and could have been done openly, if the West really felt that Putin’s Russia had interefered in Western ballots, including the barmy notions that Trump’s election and Brexit were “The work of Putin’s Useful Idiots” of course. I’ve been under a lot of pressure in the last few weeks, apparently so convicing I am that “I’m some kind of paid Russian stooge”!
Anyone can stand for election in Russia, and you only get picked up by the Politzya if you’re merely trying to bring down the establishment, and destroy order rather than actually campaign on different policies as a proper opposition should. I’m sure if a Newspaper in this country were to print a story about half the cabinet ministers being kiddie fiddlers, and taking bribes off foreign agents - then the Home Office would send some Roughs around to put some pressure on everyone involved to cease and desist.
We can’t even blame the Far Right of anything this time around, as they’ve already been locked up. Shame they couldn’t lock up Antifa people at the same time huh?
All this Russian stuff weakens Brexit as well of course. NATO and the EU can now argue. "Hey, let’s put on a united front vs our enemies we need not even have, that are capable of blowing up half the planet, whilst going easy, giving out benefits, jobs, and forgiveness to actual people blowing us up in the meantime"
… Presumably, we’re supposed to now want to “drop Brexit, raise taxes, and beef up NATO using British Money and British Forces Personnel” to do any dying that needs to be done in such a futile war, whilst turning our back on forces that are supposed to be on our side elsewhere - being attacked now by fellow members of NATO? FFS You can’t make this crap up!
NATO are very happy right now. The EU as well. The actual nation states of Europe, the actual people of Europe? - Nahh. They don’t matter. They can just do some dying over our own WMD bull that we’ve decided should well and truly take the heat off Islamic State, whom we’re secretly in league with - forever.
I would hope that there is more chance of a European-wide uprising of people against both NATO’s warmongering, the EU’s, Kievs, and Ankara’s Borgia-like shenanigans, of which (IMO) this latest so-called “Nerve Agent Attack” is but the latest piece of drivel we’re supposed to swallow whole without even reading the label first. Oh I forget. This Novichok stuff is supposed to be 4 times as deadly as VX, for which a “fatal dose” is a smear… So who’s died so far? Why such outrage if no one is dead yet? How come more than the “Target” got hit, without any wider members of the public being actually attacked? Why were M15 not looking after their “Nark” a bit better, who apparently was living in a bog-standard property, not even under an alias, and therefore clearly not on some kind of witness protection programme?
…Then finally, there is this little niggling suspicion that there might have been a theft at the nearby Porton Down labs, and this entire “Cover Story” has been thrown down to snuff-out the otherwise scandalous addmission that would have to be made that “Not only do we harbour substances banned under the Chemical Weapons treaty, but we’re actually doing experiements beyond that as well?” It’s like the old question "Why do scientists keep an active culture of Smallpox - when the disease has been otherwise eradicated from the Earth?. Answer. It can only be as a “fall back position” for harbouing otherwise banned Chemical, Nerve, and Biological agents.
Then through all this… Corbyn stands up and says “Erm. Just a moment. I’d like to ask some awkward questions of my own” - only to be shouted down by his own party.
Now I don’t vote Labour, have no intention of voting for Corbyn thus far - but even I have to admit that I reckon he’s bloody well RIGHT to be asking such questions right now - simply because no one else apparently has the bottle to!!! This “Agent” could even be much worse or of a completely different nature than we’re led to believe.
Pray that none of THAT ^^^^ muck ever gets out into the public!
