      Same can be said for the BBC/Fox news/CNN

      Who is really telling the truth?

        As part of the BBC's capitalist bashing agenda the Russian Oligarch lifestyle stereotype was played out on silent witness earlier this week BBC One - Silent Witness, Series 18, Squaring the Circle, Part 1

            Did anyone see the front page headline of Metro yesterday? Said something like:

            "Thousands at Risk From Putin Nuclear Terrorism!"

            Don't know about anyone else but I think the Russia/Putin bashing and idea of war with Russia is a really really bad idea.

            If those stupid yanks 'need' a war with Russia for whatever messed up reason their political/corporate/military industrial complex elite want it - I say let them go it alone.

            Just my opinion...

                  Apparently opinions = facts whether proven or otherwise when it comes to accusing Russia/Putin.

                  Anyway who cares - it's only WWIII potentially on the table here...

                    Where could very rare, very expensive Polonium (with short half life so can't be stored) possibly come from? It definately came from Russia - there is evidence in form of forensics from airplanes where particles of Polonium were found near seats of Lugovoi and Kovtun.

                      Don't know enough about Polonium - hopefully the forensic evidence will settle it once and for all.

                      Hopefully also concrete evidence can be provided to prove who shot down MH17, and who is actually shelling eastern Ukraine civilians.

                      And maybe we can see Saddam Hussain's WMDs as well please!
