(A) Someone as well-educated as you certainly knows that the name of the newspaper is simply The Times.

(B) Nowhere in the article to which you linked does The Times say or imply that "Litvinenko, the 'Russian spy' being portrayed in the NYTimes, WAPost, and their liberal cohorts as a victim of Putin and his commie comrads, may actually be a Muslim terrorist." In fact, to the extent that the article considers the question at all, the only implication is that he may have been the victim of terrorists, not a terrorist himself.

(C) Get a life and stop using Ann Coulter's -- it's an embarrassment to both of you.

A - From other posts, it becomes pretty obvious that many of this site's posters get their news only from John Stewart, so 'London' is probably necessary.

B - Read between the lines, look for something else. Don't assume Litvinenko is a victim. Probably the truth will never be publicly known.

A. Also known as Jon Stewart. Gonna insult the guy, get it right.
B. Secondly, as Jon himself put it so candidly 'the show that leads into [his] is puppets making prank phone calls.' No one is looking to Comedy Central for journalistic integrity, just like no one other than yourself believes that Fox News is 'fair and balanced'. We can all make up our own minds, kthx sockpuppet.

Wait wait wait...a guy converts to Islam on his deathbed and that makes him a terrorist? Didn't they find Polonium in his wife and colleagues' food too? I'm not sure if I follow how you're getting terrorist from radiation poisoning via sushi ingestion.

I can read between the lines -- apparently you can't (not sure you're even reading the lines themselves) so you have to make up things to stuff between the lines.

Bottom line: You quoted and linked to an article to support a specific premise -- that Litvinenko may have been/was probably a terrorist. Whether that premise has any possible validity or not, the article you rely on doesn't state, imply or support your premise. In fact, it undermines your premise. Someone who was on Law Review ought to be able to do better than that -- you'd be laughed out of court if this was the kind of authority you relied on.

Oh, but that's right -- you weren't really on Law Review. You're just a poser.
