Who Really Poisoned Sergei and Yulia Skripal?

By       (Page 1 of 2 pages)   No comments

I realise that it's a few years old by now but in view of recent alleged false-flag operations I feel it might be appropriate to get this old skeleton out of the closet.

With regard to the alleged Skripal poisonings on 4th March 2018 we should ask ourselves some obvious questions.

Why is the evidence to support the UK's claim of Russian complicity in the so-called "Salisbury poisonings" as rare as rocking horse manure?

Or to put it another way why is it as nonexistent as Iraq's mythical "weapons of mass destruction (WMDs)"?

Sergei Skripal was a double agent for the UK and Russia. At the time of the alleged murder attempt on him by Russian agents he was still actively working for MI6. His MI6 "handler" lived just a few streets away.

He was also in regular contact with the Russian embassy in London and, with no living relatives in the UK, he had allegedly expressed a desire to return to live in Russia.
It would therefore be no surprise if Russian agents had travelled to Salisbury to meet Sergei Skripal to finalise the conditions for his return to Russia. In fact it would be surprising if they hadn't.

Of course Russia is not going to admit this.

Clearly this would not be to the liking or approval of MI6, who have a lot to hide, and therein lies a motive for the bungled or faked attempted murder of the Skripals by MI6 and the attempt to frame Russia without a shred of evidence.

MI6 had the motive and the means. The UK's Porton Down Chemical & Biological weapons laboratories and stocks of novichock are just a few miles down the road from Sergei Skripal's front door.

Conversely Russia had no motive for the botched murder attempt on the Skripals and the logistics of transporting weapons-grade novichock from Russia to Salisbury would be extremely difficult and rather pointless to say the least.

If Russia had wanted to kill Sergei Skripal it had plenty of opportunity to do so when he was still in Russia. It should be remembered that, after being convicted of spying for MI6, he was in prison in Russia until he was allowed to leave for the UK in a deal agreed between Russia and the UK.

Once Sergei Skripal was in the UK, Russia could have easily killed him by any of a large number of means including "accidents" or alleged "suicides" such as those favoured by MI6. Remember the MI6 'body-in-bag' death of MI6 agent Gareth Williams and the alleged suicide of Iraq weapons inspector Doctor David Kelly. Or he could simply have been shot in the street in broad daylight like in "Operation Flavius", the 1988 executions of three unarmed Provisional IRA members by the British Special Air Service (SAS) in Gibraltar on 6th March 1988.

Significantly, except for one carefully orchestrated appearance by Yulia, the Skripals have been kept well away from the media and seem to have disappeared without a trace. Where are they?

Were the highly trained Russian intelligence officers really so careless as to toss a bottle of deadly chemical/biological weapons-grade poison that could kill tens of thousands of people, into a rubbish bin where it allegedly remained undisturbed for four months?

Does the KGB rule book really say "dispose of surplus deadly weapons-grade biological weapons by tossing into the nearest litter bin"? Don't they empty the bins in Salisbury?
And what about Charlie Rowley. What was his real role in the alleged poisoning fiasco and where is he now? How did he really come into possession of a fake perfume bottle allegedly containing deadly novichok? And where did his alleged newly found wealth come from?

The only person to die was Charlie Rowley's girlfriend Dawn Sturgess.
