[D5932]

remember this is on RussiaToday a Russian government channel.

Which is the antidote to polonium? which stuff would Alexander Litvinenko have needed in order to safe his life? does it exist an antidote? i get the feeling it exists.

In Area 51 there are UFOs...so ,don't u believe that there is an antidote to/against polonium? i believe

[dickin585]

@Aniva66 THey didn't identify what made him sick until after he died. Polonium-210 is an extremely rare substance. It also doesn't emit gamma rays, which are common among most radioactive isotopes. When you look for radiation, you usually look for gamma rays.

[Aniva66]

@dickin585

So, are you saying that there is no cure, if it is ingested? maybe we don't know the cure again...but i get the feeling a cure exists (in the universe?)

[dickin585]

@Aniva66 Don't know the answer to that. Possibly yea. Either way, Putin is one powerful guy! I definitely wouldn't want to be on his bad side.

@Aniva66 THey didn't identify what made him sick until after he died. Polonium-210 is an extremely rare substance. It also doesn't emit gamma rays, which are common among most radioactive isotopes. When you look for radiation, you usually look for gamma rays. (Actually it emits 1 gamma ray per 100K alpha rays. It's a short range poison that doesn't even penetrate a sheet of paper when spilled. But when ingested it is 500 times stronger than cyanide.

@dickin585 250 billion times stronger*

[SuperTiredofitall]

Уважаемое RT !

Передайте привет и наилучшие пожелания Луговому !

В день смерти предателя Родины Литвиненко я выпил стопку за удачу России !

Здоровья Вашему президенту Путину, и успехов Вам в работе.

[Metalgear55]

he exposed FSBs terror actions in russia, thats why he died..! Its scary to know that intelligence agencies are terrorist groups in secret! Their are the people who will protect you?

Their agenda is about control nothing else, and the people are like sheeps...

[VeritasTruthEmet]

hahahaha! Even better: They weren't spies! No! They were KGB, big big difference! No, really! And, Putin didn't order anyone killed. And, the world is flat! And, in mother Russia News Reports You!

[VeritasTruthEmet]

I'm sorry, what mystery? And this is presented by an OIL COMPANY? Hahaha!

[bobisnohere1]

Very sad, some of the Russian KGB, FSB leaders will stop at nothing for power. Murder their own innocent people! Communism has murdered 20, 000,000 people in Russia alone, by Stalin, not counting all the people after!

May God have mercy!!!

[molotov8904]

@bobisnohere1 but was the problem communism or stalin?

[pcgarbage]

@bobisnohere1

JUST LIKE THE GOVERNMENT !

Re. Ambassador Brenton's statement (@ 11'20") that a person, if he is innocent, has nothing to fear:

I wonder what Sir Anthony Brenton, the UK's Ambassador to the RF, would make of the proposition that Boris Abramovich Berezovsky, a.k.a. Platon Elenin, accept a free ticket to return to the RF and stand trial. If Mr. Berezovsky is innocent, he should have nothing to fear either,

[lakedolfin]

DanHadan-Sir Anthony Brenton was talking about BRITISH judiciary system, not Russian. How Russian system operates we know from Chodorkovsky case!

[VeritasTruthEmet]

@DanHadan the problem with your argument is that you make the false assumption that a British trial and a Russian trial are both fair. You are a lunatic. There is no such thing as a fair trial in Russia. If you think there is rule of law in Russia then you are either a liar or a moron. In either case, I don't have time for you. Fuck off.

[rocket881]

Also, Litvinenko was a Lt Col in the KGB, and his primary role was counterintelligence.. so he was a spy, but he spied on his comrades and vetted them for loyalty.

[rocket881]

This story has it wrong. Litvinenko met with Mario Scaramella at Itsu BEFORE meeting Lugovoy and Kovtun at the Millenium Hotel/Pine Bar. That's the whole key to the evidence, because Scaramella, Itsu, nor the Oyster Card Litvinenko used to ride the bus/train showed Po-210. The Po-210 only first appears at the Millenium, and in the teapot from which Litvinenko had a few sips but nobody else did.

[sioux7000]

Litvinenko was a brave man. He would have blown the roof off of the Kremlin had he not been poisoned. The russian gov't is just a big bully. Putin had blood on his hands!

[Nicoranta]

Putin has too much blood on his hands/

[tamaskrisztian]

most agency`s does who hide it better can live longer .... :)))))

[Alienoid1]

Try to use your mighty brain! Some facts:

1. Polonium is a very dangerous material to handle with it.

2. There is a lot of other cheaper poisons thet not so easy to detect.

3. Lugovoi is a businessman that could hire smb else to make dirty dids.

4. Radioactive marks usually used to track down a way of criminal money and other stuff.

5. There is no more need in Litvinenko for SIS. He has done his job.

6. Not all russians are so stupid.

7. SIS is not so honest organisation.

Think now!

[Alienoid1]

SIS you can read as MI6 - no matter.

[Nicoranta]

It's not about "Russians" or about FSB itself. It's about a very special organization uniting "former" officers of the Russian secret services. They punish and exterminate betrayers. Litvinenko betrayed them, so he is punished.

[BlackRuss]

sorry for my english

many posts here writen agents of FSB Russia...

Я то их ГБшные штучки за весту вижу...

[ONV111]

Англичане ещё ответят за убийство нашего гражданина! Месть настигнет британских убийц, мы отомстим.

[Piotrekoper]

I wonder what litvinenko had in mind exposing such secrets, mischievious idiot, he should have teamed up with the petshop boys, maybe then he could have gained a bit more popularity and have a stronger voice to speak out from

[MattiasWikstrom]

03:40 This was the second meeting (media got the order wrong at first). Litvinenko fell ill somewhat later.

05:50 Polonium was found where Litvinenko had been after he met Lugovoi. He did not leave any trail of Polonium before that meeting, but it seems Lugovoi and Kovtun did. The findings are all explained if you assume Lugovoi and Kovtun took part in the poisoning.

07:10 Noone close to Litvinenko said so.

08:40 It was no surpise at all to those of us who had followed the matter closely.

[artemu78]

After he "opened political secrets" he became a businessman. Also a "businessman" Boris Beresovski he was a chief of many russian huge plants and after this he became a "businessman". Legal court waiting him with questions about his money. But Britain has own targets and that is why it does not extradition terrorist Ahmed Zakaev and thief Boris Beresovski. (sorry for my english). It is all about stolen money.

[chinsup]

i dont understand what russia has to fear though if the mans innoccent he has nothing to be worried about
