In late 2006 a former FSB agent named Alexander Litvinenko is alleged to have been poisoned with Polonium 210 by two Russian agents under the orders of the Kremlin. The two accused agents, Dmitri Kovtun and Andrei Lugovoy, deny the accusations. Lugovoy says that MI6 tried to recruit him but he refused, and if he was the assassin then he risked the lives of his family who were in London with him at the time of the death to watch Arsenal.
The British government immediately and since have consistently accused Vladimir Putin and the Russian State of murder. They say they have the slam dunk evidence to convict the accused and seek their deportation for trial.
Last year would have been a perfect time to reveal the evidence to the world to pressure Putin into dumping Assad. But no. They kept the evidence, if it exists, under lock and key safe in the deep dark vaults of Whitehall, and instead sent Prince Bandar bin Sultan to issue a threat to Putin to dump Assad or Bandar would unleash hell on earth in Lebanon and Syria to embarrass Putin into dumping Assad. On 21st August last year hundreds of Syrian children and their parents were murdered by chemical weapons. The NATO media immediately went berserk and accused Assad. But at the time the Syrian Arab Army was easily crushing the Syrian rebels with conventional weapons. They didn't need to use chemical weapons and risk killing hundreds of Syrians, risking turning the Syrian population against Assad and crossing Obama's red line. On the other hand, in addition to Bandar's threat, Russia had provided evidence to the UN that the rebels had used chemical weapons at Khan al Assal. This is why UN inspectors were in Syria last August. And the rebels had been arrested with chemical weapons, had posted their experiments with chemical weapons on Youtube and had issued threats on video of using chemical weapons. And they desperately needed overt large scale military intervention on their behalf to save them from complete annihilation. After all, this is why Bandar was sent to Putin to issue that infamous threat in the first place. But all this evidence of rebel complicity in the horrific events at Ghouta was disregarded, casually overlooked and not mentioned once in NATO media.
We have to ask; if they have evidence to prove that Putin killed Litvinenko, then why was it not revealed last summer, instead of murdering hundreds of Syrian children and their parents?
Indeed, at every opportunity to produce the evidence the British government has always found an excuse to keep it concealed, if it exists at all.
And now would be as good a time as any to reveal that evidence. Whereas in Ghouta hundreds of Syrian children and their parents were murdered, in Ukraine there is a risk of an international conflict developing.
So, show us the evidence instead of risking world war.
