Craig Murray - The Quiet Of The Whores

The mainstream media are making almost no endeavour today to gibe Charlie Rowley’s concern human relationship of his poisoning into the already ludicrous conspiracy theory beingness peddled yesteryear the authorities together with intelligence agencies.
ITV News gamely inserted the phrase “poisoned yesteryear a Russian nervus agent” into their exclusive interview amongst Charlie Rowley, an interview inwards which they managed to inquire no penetrating questions whatsoever, together with of which they only broadcast heavily edited parts. Their own website contains this comment yesteryear their journalist Rupert Evelyn:
He said it was unopened, the box it was inwards was sealed, together with that they had to usage a knife inwards social club to cutting through it.
“That raises the question: if it wasn’t used, is this the only Novichok that exists inwards this city? And was it the same Novichok used to assault Sergei together with Yulia Skripal?
But the data nearly opening the packet amongst a knife is non inwards the linked interview. What Rowley does tell inwards the interview is that the box was all the same sealed inwards its cellophane. Presumably it was the cellophane he slit opened upwards amongst a knife.
So how tin this gibe inwards to the official authorities account? Presumably the claim is that Russian agents secretly visited the Skripal house, sprayed novichok on the door grip from this perfume bottle, together with then, at an unknown location, disassembled the nozzle from the bottle (Mr Rowley said he had to insert it), together with thus repackaged together with re-cellophaned the bottle prior to only leaving it to last discovered somewhere – presumably somewhere indoors every bit it all the same looked novel – yesteryear Mr Rowley 4 months later. However it had non been flora yesteryear anyone else inwards the interim 4 months of police, military machine together with safety service search.
Frankly, the example for this beingness the bottle allegedly used to coat the Skripals’ door grip looks wildly improbable. But together with thus the entire authorities even out already looked wildly improbable anyway – to the extent that I literally create non know a unmarried person, fifty-fifty amidst my to a greater extent than correct fly menage unit of measurement together with friends, who believes it. The reaction of the media, who had shamelessly been promoting the exclusively testify gratuitous “the Russians did it” narrative, to Mr Rowley’s extremely awkward slice of tidings has been to shove it every bit far every bit possible downward the tidings agenda together with brand no existent endeavour to reconcile it.
By his ain account, Mr Rowley is non a reliable witness, his retentiveness affected yesteryear the “Novichok”. It is non unreasonable to conjecture at that spot may too last other reasons why he is vague nearly where together with how he came into possession of this parcel of perfume.
The perfume bottle is at 1 time inwards the hands of the Police. Is it non rather foreign that they bring non published photos of it, to run across if it jogs the retentiveness of a fellow member of the populace who saw it somewhere inwards the final 4 months, or saw somebody amongst it? The “perpetrators” know what it looks similar together with already know the constabulary bring it, thus that would non give away whatever unsafe information. You powerfulness believe the lockdown of the even out together with command of the narrative is to a greater extent than of import to the authorities than solving the crime, which nosotros should non forget is at 1 time murder.
