Conspiracy theory perhaps but could putin really have ordered this? or at the very least allowed it? The thing that really confuses me though is why bother with such an overly dramatic and obvious murder? If the russians wanted him dead they could just have jacked him in the street, robbed him and 'happen' to kill him whilst doing so. But putting polonium ffs in his food! Its like something out of james bond*
I remember reading a while back when russia's oil industry was being brought under government control that putin wrote a thesis as a student which hes basically following now. Hes re-nationalising and consolidating all the big companies so they can 'match' the multi-nationals of the west. The oil was first and apparently defence
has followed. It doesn't seem like a very sensible way forward.
