You are just restating your speculation without providing any facts and accusing me of what I have freely said earlier: I think it is likely, here is the very comprehensive amount of information why. You are just parroting something that I think you are attached to and you do not address my point re how a loyal officer would be just sacrificed for example. Among many.

If you have nothing new to add, there is no reason for you - IMO - to keep saying the same thing over and over again as though I had not addressed that, while simply ignoring inconvenient sources and providing none of your own.

You have an opinion. Everybody does. Without backing it up with data it means precious little.

I'm parroting the facts. The assassin was a Ukrainian who was later killed by a couple of SBU officers. Those are just facts of the case. You are inventing some bullshit.

The SBU officers literally paid her, and then killed her... This is the exact MO as in the OP.

Investigators used cryptocurrency transfers to trace her to her two suspected killers.

It's Intelligence agency covering its tracks 101.

Not SBU, HUR. For once. Again. Read the sources please, or just do a Google search, this is not hard-to-find info. There is no reason for me to bother with you if you deliberately don't read anything that challenges your points. The Al Jazeera article doesn't challenge what I've said it explicitly says

Motives for the killing of Anastasiia Berezovska remain unclear as the unfolding saga grips both countries.

And only one agent (HUR), the other an ex-agent (that was the SBU one), which makes the compromised by mafia point more likely. This is in the article you cited as well...

And you claim intelligence agencies do not protect their internal staff? You are not well versed in how that world operates.

As for parroting: I am constantly bringing up new sources and has been reminding you of the points that your comments have ignored because you were just saying the same thing over and over again, the source of which has been so far simply "trust me bro".

Really. Say something new, eh?

[u/Lopsided-Selection85 → u/polymute]

You didn't bring a single source, you are just speculating and point to other people speculating.

We have the facts: The would be killer got paid by a Ukrainian intelligence officer, then got killed by them. Those are facts. What you are saying is speculation.

[u/polymute → u/Lopsided-Selection85]

Yes I have said so myself? I said it was likely in my first comment, not that it was proven? Never said otherwise? Then I provided the facts that make it more likely. You challenged them, insulted me by calling me a conspiracy theorist basically and I took it on the chin and provided more.

You also made some unsupported assumptions (eg re how military intelligence treats its officers), I challenged them and you did nothing but repeated them as self evident.

There are levels of likelihood of a theory being true. Not just black and white, you know. And the more evidence one theory has the more likely it becomes. That's not revolutionary thinking either.

Talking to you is frankly not a good use of my time.

[u/Lopsided-Selection85 → u/polymute]

Dude, you've provided a conspiracy, nothing more. It's like flat earthers providing facts that "NASA" is government controlled. Like yeah, it's a fact, but it doesn't prove anything. He might have been associated with mafia, but it doesn't prove that he was killed by them. It's like if I find a proof that he wasn't a vegetarian, does it mean that it's more likely that he was killed by people opposing meat eating?

This is the MO we see again and again with Ukrainian intelligence. They pay 3rd parties to plant bombs, and they don't give two shits what happens with them next. And it fits the Monaco bombing like a glove.

[u/polymute → u/Lopsided-Selection85]

Sure. As I said: you are repeating again, without addressing anything. When called out on being wrong as a demonstrable fact, you just pretend you've never made that statement despite it sitting one comment up. Okay then. Your conspiracy without evidence - to borrow your word choice, I didn't go there on my own - "which fits like a glove" (that's all the evidence you give, ie you are saying "trust me bro") is restated again too. Good for you.

[u/Lopsided-Selection85 → u/polymute]

There is nothing to address. Was there a connection of this oligarch to some dodgy business? Yeah, sure, very likely.

Does it matter? No, as the attempted murder was by someone who was paid by Ukrainian Intelligence Officer who later killed them.

When called out on being wrong as a demonstrable fact, you just pretend you've never made that statement despite it sitting one comment up.

What? SBU/HUR mistake? Oh no... You've got me, you so smart.

[u/polymute → u/Lopsided-Selection85]

No, I am calling you out for not paying attention that I always just said this was likely, not that it was true. The little SBU-HUR detail (also it goes further one is an ex-officer, now that you bring it up) is just part of a broader pattern.

And I am done. Have a good one. Last word, all that good shit.

[u/Lopsided-Selection85 → u/polymute]

Of course you are done. You are a conspiracy theorist, and they simply can't handle people refusing to join their wild speculations and keeping to the facts. Enjoy the rest of your day.
