something tells me that the West is over-reacting on this, on the other hand Russia likes to infiltrate everywhere

Wouldn't it be funny is some other spy who hated the ex-spy went rogue and did this?
Unlikely. But it would be pretty funny.
Interesting: Moldova, a pro-Russian country (they elected a pro-Russian president back in 2016) is kicking out 3 diplomats http://www.mfa.gov.md/comunicate-presa-md/511547/

Unlike the West of course, we would not dare infiltrate anywhere. Although other than the gas used which has a Russian background and the fact that the Russians are the most likely subject, which actual proof has been found.
Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar
| vivster said: I always found this practice to be odd. Diplomats' whole existence is to do diplomacy. But the first thing they do after an incident that would require diplomacy is expelling the diplomats? |
I don't know about the rest of the countries, but the USA is expelling specific individuals who are believed to be spies instead of "real" diplomats.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

I have the most epic death scene ever in VGChartz Mafia. Thanks WordsofWisdom!
All without actual verifiable proof just speculation, way to start shit
It won't impress Russia that so many countries just toed the line, they will harden to this

It's not their first course of action. Russia were given 14 days to explain how a Russian military grade nerve agent ended up poisoning a former Russian spy in the UK. No explanation was given. (Although Russia asked if they could analyze the nerve agent, iirc) |
There's still not the slightest proof that it really was the russians (if someone wants to contradict, please do so - but name an actual proof, not some bullshit in the likes of "I've heard there is some dossier that contains proof").
So let's just assume for a second that it wasn't the russians - how exactly could they even react? If it wasn't the russians, then the russians are obviously as incapable as everyone else to explain things.
That's as if some person in Switzerland was murdered with a "Colt" revolver, and now everyone accuses the US to be responsible because "Colt" revolvers were developed in the US. And the US gets 14 days to fully explain the case.
Personally, I consider anyone who seriously believes it was the russians to be either very badly informed or to be a brainwashed moron. I mean, how can one seriously believe that out of the billion possible ways to kill the guy, they'd actually pick the very one way that instantly points towards them? It's completely ridiculous.

Do you need a list of all the bad things Russia has done over the past few decades? Shit was started long ago. |
Yes, please post that list. I suggest starting in the 1940s. And of course, only mention things that are actually proven, not bullshit like the one that this thread is about.
And of course, also compile a list of all the bad things that for example the US has done in the same period. Hint: If that list isn't at least equally terrifying, you're obviously applying double standards.
| Signalstar said: Wonder when the Vgchartz cadre of "Russia is not that bad" apologists will show up and say something about this. |
Well, the "Sure, I still haven't seen any actual proof, but if the Führers claim that it was the russians, I'm happy to turn my brain off" squad is obviously already there...
