  • What's your position exactly?

    For the record, I'm not sure what mine is, but it's certainly not something that would lead me to conflate post-Iraq scepticism into Trump and Putin supporting derision.

  • I'm not sure what mine is

    Me neither. I also think there's a pretty low probability that anyone posting here has enough information to form a credible opinion on JCs position.

  • Agreed. It's not stopping people though. And I'm never sure if it's from a gut reaction to a truly troubling situation (in which case discussion is probably worthwhile), blind nationalism, or the chance to try and score cheap political points.

  • My info is from this account of what his press secretary said; http://www.entornointeligente.com/articulo/4005893/INGLES-Corbyn-challenges-Mays-evidence-of-Russian-lsquo;culpabilityrsquo;-in-exspy-poisoning-14032018
    ... because I struggled to find anything more detailed or showing the og text. If anyone has anything better I'd appreciate it.

    Imo, if accurate, it seems like a pretty odd stance to take. Surely this is basic stuff; (1) thoughts and prayers / shocked and appalled, (2) waiting for all the information, (3) swift response once we have the answers.

    Happy to be corrected, but don't most pundits hold the view that Putin has successfully used a mix of paramilitaries, mafia, and FSB to carry out attacks? Seems so odd to already be putting out excuses which spread doubt and aren't necessarily separate from the state.
