Huh?

What does the fact that Litvinenko's death wasn't "violent" have to do with any involvement by Putin? *scratches head* Does the fact that he wasn't shot or beaten to death automatically rule out Putin or his circle? And if it does, what does that say about the Russian president? That the violent death of his enemies is normal? I really don't understand Putin's comment.

And along the same lines, I'm still waiting for copies of Anna Politkovskaya's books to arrive.

Thing that still puzzles me - when the story of his illness first broke, the BBC radio bulletin mentioned as background that 'Russian spies are the busiest in the world'. How do they know? Is there a spy productivity league table somewhere? Perhaps Russian spies are just poor at their jobs - maybe French spies have infiltrated every organisation through to the Girl Guides, but have done it so well that nobody knows...
