So, I haven't had much chance to post lately, which is why I haven't written about the new twisty, turny, cold war-evoking spy drama that is unfolding in London lately. For anyone who hasn't been paying attention, Alexander Litvinenko, the one-time Russian spy, was poisoned with a rare (i.e. government-sponsored?) radioactive isotope about a month ago.
Following his death last week, all sorts of interesting new connections have developed between Litvinenko, the FSB, the Italian SISMI, and another former Russian intelligence officer. To add to the already complex mix, Yegor Gaidar, the former Russian PM, is also a suspected victim of poisoning.
I just can't wait until someone puts all this in a book...
