Current Headlines 11 of 12

There is a great deal of intrigue, speculation and facts in the media. In this post, I will try to provide a characterization of this work, research and opinion.

So. Who Was Really Silenced By Polonium? the Atlantic Free Press, provides an update on Mario Scaramella. Copy Dude provides excellent links to his resources. The article includes excerpts from a letter, purportedly written by Mr. Scaramella's friend, Georgia, ‘Today I embraced a man who had nothing left of Mario. No life, no enthusiasm, no character . . . They have killed Mario. My Mario is no more. Today I have seen a small, fragile, weak person, frightened, defeated… I write to you crying from the pain and the anger: I would have preferred he was dead than to see him destroyed in this way.’

Portrait of a perfect murder
BBC News, Nicola Cook, poses the question, Most murderers are unaware of even the simplest clues that might give them away. But by thinking like a forensic scientist, is the "perfect" murder possible? Alexander Litvinenko in referenced in the essay regarding forensic science.

Ayman al-Zawahiri: Echoes of Alexander Litvinenko Sean Osborne, Northeast Intelligence Network, publishes exerpts from the Litvinenko interview, published in the Polish newspaper Rzeczpospolita, July 16, 2005 issue, "Ayman al-Zawahiri trained at a Federal Security Service (the former Russian KGB) base in Dagestan in 1998. He was then transferred to Afghanistan where he became Osama Bin Laden's deputy. I was working in that section at the time and I can confirm the fact Zawahiri was not the only link between the FSB and Al-Qaeda." Ayman al-Zawahiri responds by saying, Yes, America, every time you see, read or hear about a new communication coming from Ayman al-Zawahiri know you that his words are in the service of the Russian regime of Vladimir Putin. There are several excellent links to related resource material, following the article.

Row over Litvinenko's radioactive house Steven Shukor, BBC News, provides an update on the contamination status of the townhouse at 140 Osier Cresent, Muswell Hill, north of London. Boris Berezovsky is quoted as saying, "It's not that I don't want to help (with the costs of decontaminating the former residence of Alexander Litvinenko, and property that he owns). I am helping them but I disagree that we are responsible for this. Those responsible for the murder should pay for any damage, as well as compensate all those affected by this terror attack in London."
