You're being downvoted because you don't back your facts up with any source. You're not contributing anything to the discussion. It's like saying "of course the moon landing is/isn't a hoax, I don't think anyone sane ever thought otherwise considering the circumstances...".

It says nothing. Stating something as a fact doesn't make it a fact.

For the record I have absolutely no agenda here and I must say I have absolutely no opinion on the subject at hand (nor do I think it belongs on the frontpage of HN, but that's an other subject).

Isn't the source a detailed and convincing report claiming that he died of Polonium poisoning?

Sure the comment doesn't have further facts, just a broad gesture to the context. But hey, when a situation has been established, you comment on it.
