This morning I see that the apparent assailant - unconfirmed - is "an amateur poet and former supermarket security guard said to have links with a pro-Russian paramilitary group, Slovenski Branski, also known as Slovak Conscripts." I also noted that "According to unconfirmed reports, SB received training from Russian Spetsnaz instructors and members are said to have fought for Russia in Ukraine."Given Fico is probably considered to be Pro-Russian (by the standards of the EU and US) that makes no sense what so ever*. But then again you believed what the main stream media in this country told you about the Russians blowing up the Nordstream when they could just switch the gas off and were dropping shells on the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant after their troops had captured it *- unless he is some kind of deep state asset. Did he? WHY would Russia do such a thing? Ask Seymour-riddles-Hersh because they have spun and spun and spun that one haven't they? Maybe Wikipedia's reputable sauces can enlighten who dunnit.

Yes Fico's political persuasions are well known and understood. Hence my post: oh the irony, the irony. But along with the norm for his ilk, Fico was in the process of trying to take more control over the media/get rid of media that was not in his interest. As you may have noticed if you were abreast of the current protests there. And based on his postings - which are also the basis for his known political affiliations - it looks like his love of media freedom overtook his otherwise potential sympathy for Fico's Moscow leanings. Plus he may have a screw or two loose. Or maybe it wasn't him at all, but ATM it looks like there is a pretty strong contemporaneous evidence trail as to it being him. Or of course, far more obviously and credibly, he could have been a deep state asset and we - well some people - will still be talking about it as a JFK moment in another 50-60 years time. Oh, on your other point about Nordstream. How do you know what on earth I believed ? You haven't the slightest clue. If you had read my postings on this at the time, you'd see I was highly sceptical of Russian state involvement as it made no real sense. But then, evidential reality has not exactly been a strong suit of your assertions.

Fico is not a Russian Puppet any more than Orban, he is just an independently minded politician from a country with historical links with Russia who is acting in the best interest of his country. Hopefully he will make a full recovery. The guy who shot him is probably some moron who does not think for himself and is caught up in all the emotional propaganda, there are a lot of those about these days... Fico and Orban both where opposed financial support for Ukraine. They are both russian puppets. Perhaps Fico did not go low enough on his knees and this wasn't liked at kremlin. independently minded politicians - really ? acting in the best interest of his country - really ? there are a lot of those about these days... - tell me

Gee Wizz, Next you are going to be telling me you always agreed with the Colonels assessment about Ukraines chances against Russia in a war, and that you always thought this whole idea of arming Ukraine to the teeth with NATO weapons rather than negotiating with the Russians was a bad idea.

This ongoing invasion has been going on for longer 2 years, yet, there’s no betting market for this war. like - outright winner - time to end the war - handicap market - number of casualties - amount of money spent by the US government
I wonder why. or is it just me couldn’t find any on bookmakers.

Andrew Bridgen. The man who's said the Covid vaccine is the worst genocide since the holocaust, and who joined Lozza Fox's political party for ten minutes.

Says the man who thinks Croatia and 13 other countries have been more influential in the fight against Russia than our islands. I have to wonder what tune you will sing if bombs start landing on British towns and villages.

Ben Wallace seems to support the fact that is we are not at war now we will be soon. He said today: "Because I am frightened, having read so much intelligence for so many years, that by the end of this decade if our armed forces and our security services are not match fit for the threat that is coming our way we will only have ourselves to blame."

In its current state the British Army would probably last a weekend against the Russians in an actual war. Thankfully our days of going about the world killing people who dont do what we tell them to are over* - and it looks like the US' days of doing the same are rapidly coming to an end. * - apart from our role as the US' no 1 barking lap dog.
