Someone had to blast an unproven and likely false conspiracy theory. President’s and legislators don’t have the kind of power, even when implied, to use an extrajudicial killing to force a bill into fruition. There’s no proof for that.

Sorry, I didn't realise you had such a profound and irrational faith in human nature as to think it's unhealthy to question the motives of power holders, nor such a profound ignorance of history as to think that it would be extraordinary for such conspiratorial activities to have occurred. But apparently you do. Hate to burst your bubble, but history is littered with examples of power holders covertly doing EXTREMELY shady things not unlike this killing – take JFK's assassination, for example – WHY DO WE STILL NOT HAVE THE TRUTH?

I'm not saying the neocon congressmen themselves are directly involved, it was likely a CIA asset or something. It could have been a Ukrainian asset. We simply don't know. But I do know that powerful forces and powerful self-interests are involved in this, and the stakes could not be higher. That's why I explore such dark possibilities with courage and rational analysis.

We both do in that respect, just on near polar opposite sides. I have much suspicion of the US government, especially the CIA, but my main critiques lie with Russia due to their long and reliable track record of lies and corruption that transcends our government’s own issues.
