No Surprise Here.

Here is British "presentation" of "proofs" of Russia poisoning Skripal and his daughter by some nerve agent "Novichok" which, should it have been used would have killed a truck load of people since is incredibly toxic. I know how the training of ZOMP (Defense from Weapons of Mass Destruction) is done in military and, specifically, how it is done re: nerve-paralytic agents in PRE-Novichok era. There is an element in this training which involves simulation of the removal of chemical resistance suite in the absence of proper sprinkler decontamination system and reagents, only using some naturally occurring water, which, BTW may also be contaminated. 

So the element is, with Flag-Chemist standing with the stop watch and observing if you will be able to remove the suit in accordance to algorithm and, get this, without accidental touching even by 1 square millimeter of your skin outside, that is not properly decontaminated, parts of your suit. If you touch it--you are "dead", the exercise continues without you, you get the "fail" mark and then separately from the rest, try to pass.  

What is presented here is a low quality hysterical amateur propaganda with not a shred of evidence of how this "poisoning" have happened that, and I quote:

Can then UK chemical warfare "specialists" explain how these all 2+51+131=184 people are still alive after being subjected to:

which is touted universally as one of a deadliest nerve agent in the world? So, the British proof of Russia's evil doing is this:

Get it? That is the proof that they have "no doubts"--not a single material evidence, sabotage of presenting specimens of this "Novichok" thing for analysis, a hysterical campaign of accusation within minutes of Skripal's poisoning. Me thinks, somebody doth protest too much. 

Meanwhile in her debilitating anti-Russian hysteria, UK somehow overlooked a true Russian crime in using nerve agents against British interests. The name of this super-secret chemical agent is Starichok (old man) and the main effect of it is slow and painful mental degeneration which unfolds over some years. One of the key UK assets has been subjected to this horrible chemical weapon circa 2007 and since then never stopped his mental decline.

A Living proof or Russians using chemical weapons in UK.

Come to think about it, most of Western "elite" has been poisoned by this horrible substance, and yet nobody sounded an alarm in this elite's constant decline of mental faculties. Damn Russians are good at chemical warfare and concealing it, don't you think?  

This Is Exactly How It Happened. .

The title in Russian in the picture reads: This is exactly how it happened. Meanwhile many Russians are suggesting, with a snark, Grigory Rodchenkov to immediately get back to Russia to save his life. Something tells me that Rodchenkov by now may indeed begin to contemplate this move. After all FSB or GRU (wink, wink) somehow "dispose" of their former own spies, despite exchanging them with all that comes with the territory, in a very efficient and, what is most remarkable--very public manner. I am sure CIA and MI-6 have absolutely, like total zero, nothing to do with this sudden spike in mortality of those Russian turncoats (wink, wink).  

Teresa May As A Symptom.

People started asking me about this whole, obviously false flag, situation with former GRU spook's and his daughter's poisoning. Ziad asked me next:

Judging by Theresa May's public accusation of Russian responsibility for an act of terrorism using chemical agent and injuring bystanders (all boxes are ticked) I am not hopeful that Putin's speech of March 1st has had the desired effect. If anything, it seems to have convinced them that they have to fight Russia now rather than 10 years from now. Initially I was hopeful that the white house was trying to deescalate matters, but then Tillerson jumped in with both feet beside the Brits.

 I will start from afar. Here is Valery Gerasimov's statement today and I quote:

The Russian Defense Ministry is ready to take retaliatory measures against US’ possible strike over Damascus if there is any danger to the Russian military, head of the Russian General Staff added. "At the same time, Russian military advisors, members of the Russian Reconciliation Center for the Conflicting Sides and military policemen are staying in the Syrian Defense Ministry’s facilities in Damascus. In case there is a threat to the lives of our military, the Russian Armed Force will take retaliatory measures both over the missiles and carriers that will use them,"

Do you feel the difference? As I stated somewhere earlier this week, it seems that someone flipped the switch and it is not the United States, let alone some secondary derivative US lap dog power as UK.  In this case yesterday's piece of famous Russian-Armenian political analyst, and renown Moscow Institute of International Relations (MGIMO) professor, Andranik Migranyan at Ria.Ru is very symptomatic. Its title speaks for itself: Why Trump's Revolution Is Bound To Fail (in Russian). In it Migranyan states well known to anybody with a half-brain obvious fact--it is over for Trump as independent US President and as an agent of such a needed change for the US. Trump got drowned by both the US political system and corruption and incompetence of American "elites". As I wrote last August when Trump was effectively stripped of his rights to formulate more-or-less sane policy towards Russia by US Congress:

Now that Donald Trump lost his most important battle so far (no, it is not about Russia's sanctions, it is about Executive Branch conduct of US foreign policy) and was stripped of powers he was elected to exercise, we need to talk about... Putin.

Moscow now has a clear idea that there is nobody to talk to in Washington, let alone in London which is nothing more than a proxy and a lightning rod for hysteria which completely engulfed "exceptional" elites. Russia's presidential elections and upcoming World Cup are the last, in inflamed neocon imagination, "pressure" points of influence on Russia. Well, that and Ukraine. Yes, they still think that, albeit increasingly it looks like acts of utter desperation. Anything goes for them in this case. False flag by poisoning yet another former Russian turncoat? Sure. Chemical  weapons false flag in Syria? Absolutely. Do they want a hot war with Russia? Some certainly do. Do they understand what they wish for? No, American elites in general have no grasp of the nature of military power and of its application. But DO they feel that they are going down? Absolutely. All of them. Some, indeed, merely feel that, others already begin to understand. Hence the hysteria. 

In their view something has to be done, even if risking a war, to prevent or even slow down a complete disintegration of the Pax Americana and the so called liberal world order which is happening in a front of our eyes. Be it demonstrated Russia's military-technological superiority, or a complete failure of US "analytical" organizations to predict anything right about Russia--all these are the signs of a terminal illness. Russia doesn't see anymore any sense in appeasement and accommodations with the US. It seems that Gerasimov's warning is quite blunt. Moscow clearly understands that these now are CIA and its branch, Department of State, which run US foreign policy, well, as a result game changes. The United States decided to open Cold War 1.0 playbook but considering the fact that a lot in that book is simply a fantasy, a figment of imagination by "exceptional" historians, it is already clear where this Cold War 2.0 may lead. It is not the future the United States wants to contemplate but it is one, it seems, it cannot avoid anymore. Teresa May and her political show, in this case, are merely symptoms, not the cause of the ailment.
