Alexander Litvinenko confirmed dead?

Whilst most things involving Neo-cons don't have happy endings, Neil Clark should stop drinking the Cool-Aid - Long live Milosevic.

Is democracy in South Ossetia wrong just because a bunch of war-mongers agree with it? Or should the USSR never have fallen, if it wasn't for those capitalist pigs?

Man, that article raises a few interesting points.

One does wonder if some sort of artificial media hype has been applied to this story. Every day for about 2 weeks it was the lead story on most BBC News shows, and I'm sure it had at least some mention on American stations.

And I always wondered why...

It's a horrible thing to happen, it's a horrible way for someone to die and it's even worse that it happened on "our watch" so to speak, but I just don't understand why it was top of the news every day for so long...

It could be explained by the theories of such "russophobes". If the government gets people riled up against Russia... well, you read the article.

Or perhaps, whoever perpetrated this just knew exactly how the media would spin it...

Who knows?
