I am calling Russian troll on this.

Come on dude! you've been reading too many Internet fables ? ?

It was a leading question, he was looking for a no so then he would have pontificated about how wrong I was and how everybody should think the same as him and the Russians were crossing the border as we speak!

Read my OP post again, think about it? Reuters are always unbiased? might be a bit much for you? 

 

OK - I'm a "Russian troll" dam! thought I would be able to pull that masquerade off! best change the identity I have had on here for 10 years thought I was deep enough ?

I think he was looking for an answer. Well, what is it?

Ya, these two guys really look just like average Russian businessmen tourists who decided on a lark to take a 24-48 hour trip to a London suburb and then quickly fly back home to Moscow...  :w00t:   :cheesy:

 

More like... they look like the bad guy assassins from a James Bond movie.... perfectly cast....  I'd cross to the other side of the street and give them a wide berth!!!

They lied. I think they must say the truth: "Putin tell us to use chemical weapons to make a big scandal just 3 days before Putin`s elections". ??

Oh those Russians...

Interesting that Lavrov is conspicuous by his absence in not adding any sound bites on this 'tourist' story. Usually he is front of the queue in such matters. Could it be that even he would struggle to keep a straight face in offering his backing to these hapless guys.

Two Russian spies have been arrested while allegedly on their way to a laboratory that tested novichok samples from Salisbury.

 

The two suspects, who are not the same pair charged with launching the attack on Sergei Skripal, were detained in The Hague in spring and sent back to Russia.

 

Intelligence services suspected they were on their way to the Speiz Laboratory in Switzerland, sources told the Tages-Anzeiger and NRC Handelsblad.

They say they were in Salisbury to visit the cathedral. OK maybe you believe that two men would fly all the way from Russia for a couple of days just to visit Salisbury cathedral and nowhere else.

 

Yet they are not seen anywhere near the cathedral nor any other tourist site, Old Sarum for example, on any cctv, but are seen close to Skripal's house.

 

Maybe they'd got lost and thought they'd ask a fellow Russian for directions!

OMG, it gets even weirder.

Of course, the wider world doesn't believe their story.

But Russians? Maybe lots of them do. Under the spell of their dictator and his tricks.

Met my Russian expat friends for breakfast today and they said that they believed that Petrov and Bochirof had been telling lies at the interview.

 

The Phuket Russian expat community is mostly anti Putin, and the prevailing interpretation of the RT interview that it’s is a silly cover up by the government.

 

Another popular version is that the pair is gay and they were using their trip to the UK as a romantic hideaway, far away from the places where they could meet Russian tourists and being recognized. Crazy but true.

The funny part of that gay story is that Russian government is so anti-gay, it could never admit it. If it would, the stories of GRU being populated by gays would bring further embarrassment to Putin's regime ?

 

I read that lots of Russians don't believe what was said in the interview. That's not a good sign for Putin's power. Perhaps it's time for him to step down as well. Then again, where would Putin go and how long would he live after he has been abusing Russia for so long?

 Sorry, but Solsbury Hill is not in nor near Salisbury.

 

It's about 40 miles away near Bath.

 

If their visit was inspired by a song, maybe this one:

They're between a hard place and a rock; they either admit they're gay or members of GRU. As it stands, this has as much credibility as the Flat Earth Society. And I'm pro-Russian. Russia should just concentrate on consolidating their own borders. They've lost a lot of empathy, but I'm not the first one to be beguiled. Everyone, eventually, gives up on Russia, even Sartre. Old habits die hard. Ha!
