I am with you on that. If your in Russia and the KGB or any other Russian soup agency wants to kill surely you will be dead.
It's all too coincidental that it happened on none Russian soil back to back. If he was a high profile buisness man I am sure he made more enemies than just other Russians.
Double agents are just that double sided I am sure after a while they loose trust with both sides and have to be disposed of. It's a win win if you off them and make it look like your opposition did too.

The article appears to be nothing but idle speculation and wild conjecture. Is anyone else noticing the theme they keep pushing in the news?
"RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA!"
I don't believe a word of it

It is known that a former FBI agent is in the area
with several "journalists" working for Clinton
trying desperately to find a shred of truth
in the dossier to try and save Buzzfeed and
maybe even Clinton herself.
I am keeping an open mind, it could have
been Russia but at the point things sure seem
to be pointing at evidence of foul play on the
part of other's like Steele and M16.

Yeah, the russian agents always are too stupid to kill people without traces that lead directly to russia
So what about Livinenko?
And then they do it again and again, make again and again the same mistakes, always and only in the Five Eyes UK, anglo american "empire" and stuff...

Crazy. It makes no sense that the former Russian spy was never assassinated in Moscow as he was serving his sentence for high treason, and he was even handed over in a trade with the Americans. He was assassinated in London. It almost looks like MI6 is cleaning up its mess while creating more scapegoats.

Perhaps there will be a third...with these intelligence hits, there is bound to be a third.

I admit not knowledgable on Russian agencies so i went with the alphabet soup line. I am sure that some of their members just took on different acronyms. Putin is still alive and well last time I checked.
