How can you compare Navalny to Khashoggi, who was cut in pieces and dissolved into the sewer?! The Turkish TV recently released the investigation footage - unimaginable brutality, tons of evidence, and NOTHING! Navalny is no threat to Putin. He wants to be perceived as one, but he is not. I am not an assassination expert, but I'm sure there plenty of ex-KGB people who can get rid of Navalny if Putin asks them. Car crashes, incidents, you name it - if he wanted him dead, he'd be dead long ago.

Thank you for the info about Novichok. It was airborne during Skripal's case, but now I see it was powder released into the air and not gas.

Did you miss the video where Navalny got an FSB officer to confess his involvement in the attempted murder on Navalny?

Yeah, and I don't buy it. It has two points - Navalny is important and the West needs to retaliate against Russia further and that Russian services are ineffective and outdated, i.e. undermine its credibility where agents could be called and reveal secrets over the phone without any authentication and authorization protocols.

How about Putin's palace? #FakeNews? Someone who's definitely not Putin spent $1.4 billion on this building despite all the evidence pointing at Putin? You'll need to employ some serious doublethink to continue on this train of thought.
