Remember this?
Poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Former KGB spy Alexander Litvinenko was working for the British secret service when he was poisoned in November 2006, a legal review has heard.

The court was told that Mr Litvinenko was paid by MI6 and was working alongside Spanish spies in the days before his death.

British government documents which implied that Russia was behind the 43-year old's murder were also revealed.

Nothing really, just think it is crazy Russia can murder someone on British soil with a rare and highly RADIOACTIVE poison and nobody batters an eyelid!

Imagine that ... Russia kills one of their own nationals who is actively working for a foreign power.

If it had been a British national working for the KGB in Moscow how would you feel about it?

Exactly, cold war part 2 at the least.

Don't be so silly!

What happened to Georgi Markov?

'Nobody batters an eyelid?' - If you poison somebody you may well pi88 people off.

If you start deep-frying people's faces (battered eyelids?) then - sooner or later - somebody is going to get quite upset.

Oh, BTW, Litvinenkov was not a spy.

Foreign spies are apprehended, interrogated, jailed and then exchanged (there are rules, you know!)

Whether or not traitors get their eyeballs fried (breaded or battered) is another matter.

Im utterly ashamed of our country's treatment towards Russia. We really should be giving the one fingered salute to the Yanks and siding with Russia. They were right about Iraq, theyre right about Syria and Iran, and they'll be right elsewhere Re:Foreign policy. God Damn Bush and Obama and their bloodthirsty foreign policy stance. Furthermore, we should turn over any corrupt Russian Oligarghs residing in the UK to Putin, including the Bandit Berevsovsky.

Because Russia is a saint is she!
