SOME THEORIES ON LITVINENKO

1. Putin did it - if it was Putin then this has to be the most audacious assassination in known history. To assassinate a long-time critic on foreign soil, particularly British soil, knowing the kind of resulting death would be milked to death by his critics, is a very bold and dangerous step. So why would Putin do it? To silence a long-time critic, who some believe had outlived his usefulness, and who had actually discredited himself with wild theories about Russia, al-Qaeda and 9/11? To stop some damaging information falling into the wrong hands? To use a very rarely used poison which fingers only a few states is potentially self-incriminating. But then do what your enemies expect you to do the least. But then again, why assassinate a discredited critic when you are about to negotiate potentially lucrative contracts with European customers?

2. Suicide - a theory I proposed due to the still unexplained presence of some dense matter in Litvinenko's colon, and which seems to have quietly slipped from news reports upon the discovery of Polonium-210. Once a satisfactory explanation for the presence of these objects is given I will dismiss this theory. He was married with kids and living a not uncomfortable life, even if he was living it carefully. However he was in the pay of certain ruthless individuals who may well have put pressure on him, via e.g. death threats to his family. Remember we are talking about control of Russia. Putin kicked these certain individuals out of Russia after they had systematically raped Russia and is slowly regaining control of Russia's natural resources. Russians seem happy with Putin. There's a lot of control at stake here. Europe is becoming increasingly dependent on Russia for energy. Andrei Luguvoy stated that he met Litvinenko with Kotvun and a third man, who the mainstream media are still failing to mention. Sources also told The Independent that there are quite a few inconsistencies with Litvinenko's story of what happened on the 1st November, but this may be down to pain and loss of memory.

3. "Dignity and Honour" - according to the News of the World last Sunday some of the information Litvinenko was passed on 1st November named "Dignity and Honour" as drawing up a hitlist of critics who were damaging Putin. If this is actually the case then it is possible that Putin knew about the assassination and let it happen. But then the same arguments in 1. are applicable.

4. Berezovsky - Berezovsky and his Russian and now London-based oligarch pals have quite a lot to gain from the slow, agonizing and dare I say photogenic death of a critic of Putin. Perhaps Litvinenko had outlived his usefulness and was as is suggested expendable. Perhaps Litvinenko had found some damaging information on Berezovsky himself and was about to spill the beans on his sponsor.

5. Agreed hit - if Putin is NWO then perhaps Litvinenko had some info, or was about to find some, which would blow the scam, so it was agreed between concerned parties that Litvinenko could be assassinated on British soil and theories would persist on who the assassins were; Putin, "Dignity and Honour", Berezovsky? It wouldn't matter because potentially damaging info would now be buried.

So which do I think? I really don't know. Until the objects in Litvinenko's colon can be explained then suicide, be it assisted, forced or voluntary, is still on the table.

But if there is an innocent explanation for the presence of these objects then I would say "Dignity and Honour" are the most probable culprits. But wether Putin (a) knew and (b) acquiesced is debatable.
