Yyyyyeah see this is all kinda sketchy....Skripal was arrested, stripped of rank, imprisoned....if Russia, the GRU, wanted him dead they would never have released him. They released him as part of the spy swap from the busted Illegals Program (you know Anna Chapman and all ).

If they were going to "secretly assassinate" someone why use a nerve agent which ties DIRECTLY to you? Why not try a "OMG what a horrible accident, a car crash" or "OMG he fell off a balcony" or the fucking heart attack gun ....OR....some sort of gang member could be hired to kill someone in a "Robbery gone wrong"




It seems rather convenient IF it's Novichuk and the Russians were after him....seems a bit too Keystone Cops for me. But I could very well be wrong.
