Would somebody please take the Novichok away from Putin

That paranoid dictator Putin is at it again. This time the victim is the leading anti-Putin dissident in Russia, Alexei Navalny. They're not kidding when they say Putin is paranoid. Navalny polls at about a 2% approval rating, and still the paranoid Putin needs to rub him out.

Here's what I don't get. Before the Skripal affair no-one had ever heard of Novichok. Suddenly there it was, one of the most lethal chemical weapons in the arsenal of the Soviet Union. A military grade nerve agent, super highly deadly. So far Putin has used this super deadly weapon three times. On Skripal, his daughter, and now Navalny.

All of them are alive.

OK, so maybe it's not that super deadly...


Maybe Navalny just came down with a bad case of covid.
